Continuing from our ferry trip post of yesterday -- As we pulled out of Galveston Island's ferry dock, heading back to the Bolivar Peninsula, the ship above passed by us, seeming a dark phantom on the water. It seemed strange to only have the light from our ferry illuminating the silent somber shadow as it slid by. However, out into Galveston Bay we were passed by another indistinct, light-less hulk that was even harder to distinguish except as it passed between us and the lighted shores. The cabin and deck lights were all off.
Though I had taken the ferry many times, this was my first night-time ride, and it was well worth the trip.
