Not certain if any local Browncoats read this thread anymore but just in case...

Serenity On The Sound aka The Ferry Job!

Location:
Coleman Dock - Downtown Seattle - 9:45 a.m. November 15th, Saturday morning
114 Alaskan Way S
Bremerton Ferry Run
Seattle, WA 98104
(888) 888-2301

Frequent requests for a Firefly Meet-Your-Fellow-Browncoats Gathering has resulted in an elaborate plan. This is a great chance for both newbies and long-time recruits to mingle, chat and sing "The Hero of Canton" guaranteed to get weird looks from the other passengers.
So read on, brave Browncoat, and prepare to be amazed....

============

So the day's are getting shorter and the weather's a bit glum but hey! that doesn't stop a Seattle Browncoat! Join us for a short trip across the Puget Sound on a Washington State ferry. This will be a prime opportunity to get to know your fellow Browncoats over a warm beverage and enjoy the best view around.

Meet at the Coleman Dock, Pier 52 by 9:45 am (no later than this - the ferry departs at 10:15 and you need time to buy tickets) How to find us - "Gather near Matt's Gourmet Dogs. Look for folks with coats of a brownish color."
Passenger Fares (Adult) are $6.70 each, (Youth - 6-18) $5.40 each. Leave the pets at home, please. Washington State Ferry Pet Policy: Pets must be on a leash or in a carrier at all times. Pets, except service animals, are not allowed in terminal buildings or above the car decks, unless they are in a pet carrier.

We'll wait for walk-on boarding between the Ticketing counter and Matt’s Gourmet Hot Dogs. (Mmmm, good dogs!)
Ride the ferry du jour (10:15 departure) to Bremerton, where we will convince the captain to turn the boat around and ride back to Seattle. The trip should take just over two hours, returning around 12:30 pm.

Good things to know:
Bundle up, it's November after all.
Bring your camera, if it's a clear day you might see birds, whales or maybe a private floaty island.
Smoking is not allowed on the ferry.
Feel free to take your vehicle on the ferry but it's gonna cost ya a bundle of cashy money and you won't be able to get back over to Seattle until the next ferry run.

Food Service:
There is a food court at Coleman Dock (Commuter Comforts Espresso Café and Wine Bar, Candy Lane, World Wrapps, Caffe Appassionato Coffee Company, Andy's Alaskan Subs & Matt’s Gourmet Hot Dogs). The ferry has a galley and limited vending machines. You are welcome to bring your own food and beverages but no alcohol (some ferries sell beer and wine in their galley).
