I feel your frustration re ferry terminals. They’re never well signposted; and staff are only visible when they’re ready to load. No good if you’re worried about which queue or lane to be in, or if you’re supposed to have gone through some of the procedures and you don’t know if you’ve missed a kiosk 😳💙❤️
@phillyandkeely2 жыл бұрын
Yeah we were so grateful for our little police escort at Albania because we would have had no idea 😂 I think the fact that everyone was confused at the Italian ferry added a lot of negative energy which massively increased the stress of the situation. Nothing a few smiles and a sign wouldn't have fixed!!
