Reunited with our car

We are reunited with our car but it took a whole day to do that.

We had an adventure planned today to pick up our car in Seattle.  We booked a ride on the Greyhound Bus that would take us from Port Townsend to Seattle and were scheduled to leave at 0655.  We woke at 0500 because it takes Pauline about 20 minutes to walk from the boat to the road, to catch a taxi to the bus station.  Well, we waited and waited and waited at the station for the Greyhound but it did not materialize.  We tried tracking the bus and calling with no success.  There were a few other people waiting as well and they were going to catch flights at SeaTac Airport.  By 0900, we were making alternate plans to get to Seattle and there was still no news on the delayed bus.  So we got on a bus (no charge) to Poulsbo, another bus ($2 for the both of us) to Bainbridge Island Ferry Terminal and walked on to a ferry (no charge) to Seattle.

 

While we were on the bus to Poulsbo, we received messages from Greyhound that our bus was delayed for 240 minutes and if we do not want to wait, we can cancel.  We canceled but they would not refund the total amount to the credit card and would only give us a voucher for future travel.  The cost was $71.55 but the refund was only $67.56.  The silver lining to that was we only paid $2 compared to $71.55.

 

The car will come in handy to run around for provisions and parts, etc needed for the dry dock.
