Blogging by ferry

This is our current wifi access - the Martha's Vineyard ferry! We are anchored in the outer harbor at Vineyard Haven so the ferries go tramping past every hour or so.

It turns out that the ships have free on board wifi access for passengers, and when they go past we can pick it up with our new long range antenna! It works really well as they pass, then is just about OK when they are docked, and disappears once they leave.

So when we hear the faint rumble of propellers through the water we can fire up the PC just in time to grab our email as the ship goes by. The odd life we lead.

All's well here on the Vineyard, we're enjoying it and will write some more soon. The ferry is about to depart so I'd better get on and post this......
