On The 11th Day Of Christmas, Mr. Hahn Gave To Me

.

.
.....A Hundred Dollar Trip On B.C. Ferries.....



Well, actually, it was $101.60 to be exact, for Tsawwassen to Swartz Bay.

Which works out to a $200 round trip for a family of four with a standard-sized vehicle.

And that doesn't even count the sixty or seventy bucks spent on 8 crappy meals, newspapers and a trip to the message chairs in an attempt to lower my soaring, P3-induced increase in blood pressure*.

It's like Great Aunty Bertha has said many times before......

'Ridership down, profits up......Guess who get's screwed?'


Or something to that effect**.

**Alison also takes a well-justified run at the latest spinorama performed by Mr. Hahn and his minions.
