The next day, we almost missed the morning ferry. This would have been disastrous, as this was our last day, and we were dependent on catching this ferry to catch the right train in Oban to catch our flight out of Glasgow. The ferry was actually pulling away as we approached the pier, and they lowered the platform again for us. Folks said they had never seen them do that. I was prepared to wade through the water to climb aboard, but for Amy's sake I appreciate this kindness a lot!
