Hi all ๐๐ป

Letโs continue where I left off yesterdayโฆ and see the LAST PART of this ferry crossing ๐ข with an EPIC SUNRISE captured in PHOTOS and VIDEO ๐
This is the STENA LINE FERRY originating from LIVERPOOL UK ๐ฌ๐ง
If you missed yesterdays post, have a look here: โLETโS MOVE COUNTRIES WITH A FERRY ๐ข โ Stena Line - Liverpool (Birkenhead) UK ๐ฌ๐ง ~ Market Friday PART 1
Todayโs selection will be of 43 photographs and 1 video ๐ฅ
Yesโฆ not as many as yesterday hehehe ๐คญ I could refrain myself.
Date: 7 May 2023.
The Photographs and video in this post are all taken with my iPhone ๐ฑ๐ค
I will follow the time stamps on them. So it looks like you are experiencing my adventures with me, to ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป #discover everything what I saw, like the little #details seen through my eyes and the stunning #sunrise, #scenery, #ferry, #views, #port, and #boat. ๐
So after I finally fell asleep after all the excitement ๐คฉfrom yesterdayโฆ yepโฆ even with the car alarms going off, which you didnโt hear in the cabin, luckily ๐
I woke up early as had set the alarm clock โฐ as we would arrive early in the morning at 6:30h
The first thing I did was getting dressed and step out onto the deck next to the cabin.
And I was greeted with something special ๐ฅฐ an EPIC SUNRISE ๐
Let me share this with you, how could I not ๐
Look at this ๐ฅฐ it is 05:48am here.

I also see already land around meโฆ

I was awake enough to take a video of this moment ๐
Have a look and listen ๐ yesโฆ no crazy sounds this time, I promise!
Nobody else was aroundโฆ do you see how CALM the Sea ๐ is and how silentโฆ just a little hummmm from the motors of the ferry. ๐ฅฐ
I loved this moment.
The colours are so soft right now.

Looking towards the rightโฆ Land ๐๏ธ

There is a mist over the waterfront what helps in seeing the soft colours.

The SUNRISE is changing itโs intensity as the sun โ๏ธ is trying to break through the #clouds. See itโs beautiful reflection ๐ฅฐ

As the door canโt be opened from the deckโฆ I had put a chair into it so I could get easily to the cabin. ๐ค

I capture some #artistic #photographs ๐

Here I was trying to get the flag fully open, but there wasnโt enough of an breeze to do so.

Look at this calm seeโฆ so serene. It was such a moment you donโt forget easily.

Industrial towers peeking through the morning mist.

On the other side I see mountains โฐ๏ธ

The sun is trying so hard hereโฆ it goes to bright yellow now. A little boat ๐ค passes by and destroys the smooth surfaceโฆ

It makes some wavesโฆ and I see some green reflections in the waves behind it. Do you see it too or are you distracted with this sunrise ๐
๐ I knowโฆ I am hahaha ๐ itโs beautiful. Letโs enjoy it together.

Back to some artistic capturesโฆ ๐
Moi: 
A church in the distanceโฆ and the ripples on the surface from the little boat. They do look pretty cool here ๐ all do I say it myself.

At 06:11am we arrive in the harbour and are on our way to the docks.

I decided to go up one flight of stairs again to the roof/ deck, to have a better view.

The chimneysโฆ

Another Stena Line ferry is besides me.

Itโs the Stena Nordica.

The sun is still showing off its beauty ๐
and a wooden pier we pass by.

Suddenly I notice the followingโฆ have a look at the wavy asfalt the large truck is standing on.

Here you see it betterโฆ do look also at the real waves ๐ in the distance that roll onto the beach above it.

The cabin doorโฆ

And one more captureโฆ the freight port.

We (everybody on this ferry) need to head to the car now or assembly area, to get ready to leave the ferry.
At 06:51am we start drivingโฆ vroom vroom ๐๐

All the way outside and back in again on the other side, like yesterday.

And donโt forget going downโฆ. ๐

Following all the other carsโฆ we got on first last time, so we are last this time (kindaโฆ with the exception of a few more cars)

And almost of the ferryโฆ

๐๐ป๐๐ป Bye bye Ferry, thank you so much for the smooth sailing ๐ฅฐ

Following signs for the exit

The sun is shining bright now.

The exit of this area is going really fastโฆ

Last stretchโฆ

And we can drive out, just like that.
Most of you knows where I am or are guessingโฆ
Letโs have a look at the sign:

BELFAST yepโฆ thatโs Northern Ireland. Still UK ๐ฌ๐ง
I must disappoint you here. I havenโt arrived in my next country of residence YET
As some know, the UK ๐ฌ๐ง refused my residency so I need to move a bit further ๐ค
So we need some more adventures and some more travelingโฆ ๐งณ
Here we are driving around the port area of BELFAST Northern Ireland. The mist is still there as it is still earlyโฆ like 06:55am early.

We are crossing some crossings and I seeโฆ in the distance:

This awesome sculpture of a seahorse ๐ฅฐ

I like it a lotโฆ what a beautiful artwork.

If you know Belfast, the quickest way to get out of it is motorwayโฆ butโฆ if you know meโฆ thatโs not what we are doing hahaha ๐คฃ
Letโs go to the backroads and small country lanesโฆ

For many more new adventuresโฆ ๐
โฆand here I say โthatโs all for todayโs post my friendsโ We have a long journey ahead of usโฆ. So join me SOON for more #updates, #adventures, #stories and #photographs soon ๐๐๐ป Even some #artworks once in a while will come byโ ๐จ
Thank you so much for looking, and reading.

I am so lucky that I make a ferry crossing once a week at sunset and sunrise from Koh Samui to the mainland. Over water, the views are so beautiful. Your ferry is rather bigger than ours though lol.
Safe travels, you'll soon be there:-)
Sounds just awesome @nathen007 ๐ ๐ lucky youโฆ
It was massive this ferry. The next one I go on in July will be smallll hahaha ๐คฃ
Thanks a lot. Have a great day ๐๐ป

Darn, I thought that you are headed there as your final destination... But now that you are there, you don't have too many options for where to go... ๐ The list is narrow... :)
Hahaha most did !LOL but itโs part of the UK so had to leave this part too.
You are right not many options left, unless I would hop on a plane or another ferry ๐ค
Good evening ๐๐ป

Oh! How come you needed to show your passport at Liverpool if you're just going over to Belfast? The timing must be a bit annoying as you barely get a proper sleep and you're up again.
No idea.
Yesโฆ it was a weird timing. As after all the excitement it took a while to fall asleep and thenโฆ the alarm clock goes and you have to get ready to drive off. So you donโt have much time to properly sleep.
Next timeโฆ (in July) I have the quick ferry Holyhead to Dublin.. that one takes just a few hours during the day. Will be a whole other experience. It is also much smaller than the ferry we had.
Have a great Sunday ๐๐ป๐
This is beautiful. will love to be in this view right now, amazing sight to calm ones emotions, if theres a word for meditation this view should be it
Thank you so much for your kind words.
This would be the view for meditation, it was so serene and calm. I enjoyed every secondโฆ fully.
It was epic.
Have a wonderful Sunday ๐๐ป๐
Same here. Expecting more photos from you like this ones
Thanks!
My posts are always filled with these kinds of photos ๐
Happy new week ๐๐ป
Same here! Keep up the beautiful view ๐
Will do ๐
Enjoy your day!
Gracias amigo!!!
That is a fantastic sun rise, shame you didn't hang around in belfast they have some amazing street art
Thank you so much @grindle ๐
You know, I just didnโt have time that day.
I will sure go and visit Belfast a few times to explore. Canโt wait ๐ I have seen some epic pieces onlineโฆ I wish to visit.
great stuff!
Thanks @grindle ๐
Cheers!
Enjoy the new week
you too
Thanks will do ๐
An epic adventure and lovely photos Jackie.
Keep it up and I am sure that you will have many more.
!LOL
Thank you so much Zac ๐๐ป๐
Will do, and for sure more adventures will come ๐
Happy Monday!
!LOL
Power cuts here and struggling. (Short answers)!
Happy new week Jackie.
!LOL
I fully understand Zac ๐ค
Thank you, enjoy yours ๐๐ปโ๏ธ
!LOL
Thank you for understanding Jackie, as the power cuts are most troublesome.
We had a cold and rare dry day today, and hope that yours was good ๐
!LOL
You are welcome Zac ๐๐ป๐
Dry is good, one can do more then when it rainsโฆ
Thank you so much, it has been.
Happy Wednesday!
!LOL
Yep, we were off this morning to a charity meeting in the rain !LOL
A happy Thursday to you Jackie.
Beautiful pictures! Happy Sunday!
Thanks @zakludick ๐๐ป๐
Iโm finally around again to post. As it has been a crazy busy time with all that moving hehehe
Happy Sunday to you too!
Welcome back!
Thanks ๐๐ป๐
Have a great new week ๐
Hello dear friend @littlebee4 good day
What a beautiful sunrise, you cannot believe how calm the sea is, I love the photographs you have taken, especially the one of your shadow, ideal for the shadow challenge.
I love the seahorse sculpture.
What a beautiful ferry trip, you have undoubtedly enjoyed
have a beautiful sunday
Hello dear friend @jlufer ๐๐ป๐ good day to you!
Thank you so much for joining me on this adventure.
I so loved the sunrise. Happy I could share it with you.
I sure enjoyed it all.
Have a wonderful new week โ๏ธ๐บ
Traveling is always a lovely experience, I really enjoyed your adventure and I really enjoyed the sunrise and I envy you ๐, I already felt like taking the ferry from Mazatlan to La Paz, it is a 12 hour trip but I have postponed it for a long time, maybe I am afraid of the sea but now that I saw your trip I think I will do it.
Have a nice Sunday.
Thank you so much @monster-one ๐๐ป๐ for joining me on this trip.
Sounds like you do have to get on that ferry. Do let me know when you do one day ๐
I do understand why you postponed it.
I loved this journey, it was beyond awesome.
Have a nice new week ๐
Looks like you had a smooth trip , once i'm in the exploring mood again for travels i will make that crossing too with my cameras .
But for now i stay closer to home .
looking forward to see some nature of Ireland soon from you .
I had and I was so happy about that as I know rough seas ๐ happen tooโฆ
Hope you can one day. Will be epic.
Thank you kindlyโฆ coming up soon ๐
Enjoy your day further ๐๐ป
Beautiful spot to watch the sunset. Definitly worth getting up early for. It's surprising how calm the water was that day - like glass.
It was, and I was so lucky with the location of the cabin.
I am normally not an early riser hehehe but this was a nice surprise.
I didnโt expect either to see the sea soooo calm and smooth. Remarkable ๐
Happy Saturday ๐๐ป

Enjoy your weekend! ๐
So, you made it to Belfast, Northern Ireland!
Of all the photos, I think that my favorite is that when a boat was weaving through the wavesโฆ and I did see some green reflections in the waves behind it and ๐ itโs beautiful.
How long will you be staying?
It must be exciting!
Have fun, and see you tomorrow!!!
!LADY๐บ๐บ๐ค
I did make it to Belfastโฆ but didnโt stay.
Still a bit longer to go. And more adventures to have ๐
Yes, that is a great photoโฆ thanks for selecting your favourite @silversaver888 ๐
Everything is exciting as I had never been on this island before. So all new adventures and explorations. Will be sharing more soon from this emerald island, as locals call it ๐ canโt waitโฆ
See you soon dear ๐๐ป๐๐ค๐บ

The most beautiful way to experience sunrise is through the eyes of a new port! Familiar, yet so very foreign. Certainly inviting.
I love your stories and the reveal you have with each one.
I am looking forward to your new journey and the adventures you will be having.
The little boats and the waves, it is certainly distracting with the sun rising and coloring my world. And you! :) I see you, your hair flowing in the breeze from the sea.
Good morning, Jackie! Happy Saturday! Enjoy your day!

Thank you so much Denise ๐๐ป๐ good morning to you, almost afternoon. Happy Saturday!
It is indeedโฆ and what a serene sunrise this was ๐ฅฐ๐ I wonโt forget this oneโฆ
It is extra exciting as I never had been on this island. A truly new startโฆ again. Canโt wait to explore and go on adventures. At the moment I am car less as hubby went back to the UK with it. So will have to jump on some busses once sorted a bit more. We are pretty rural here. (Again)
Thank you, happy I can share them with you.
I did put a me in there again think my hair is getting longgg can almost sit on it right now.
This morning was so perfect in every way. What a journey it has been and to be welcomed with such a sunrise ๐ฅฐ
Have a great day @dswigle ๐ค
!LADY ๐บ
Did I hear you say "Moi"? ๐ I understand that word from South Africa ๐
lol I had to laugh here about the crossing the crossing ๐
The sunrise is so beautiful, especially when it was creeping up from the clouds, that must have been a magical moment Jackie, don't the trip feel short?
Hahaha moi as in French for me. Is that the same you know?
In Dutch we say mij or ik.
Sometimes I just write and looking back, it is a funny one. Crossing the crossing hahaha ๐คฃ
The crossing was about 8 hours only, so it was rather short I would say.
It surely was such a magical moment Joe, so happy I could share this with you. Thanks for being around here ๐
Have a lovely day further ๐๐ป
!PIZZA (not sure if I have any more today)
Oh, I see moi, means nice in Afrikaans, or the Afrikaans guys I worked with told me it means nice.
Lol yeah, crossing the crossing got me laughing which is a good laughing part of your content.
Thanks for sharing, it's okay if you don't have much !PIZZA left to share
See, I didnโt know that one. Moi is nice. If I look quickly on mr g@@@gle it is more like mooi, so nice is indeed also correct.
But not what I meant hahaha
Good laughing is healthy, you rememberโฆ we talked about that before ๐
You are welcome Joe. Thank you kindly for the ๐๐๐ mine is out indeed hahaha
With all the catching up. I am low on vp too. But I catch up tomorrow.
Hahaha okay, there is an extra "o" to it well at least I pay attention to the language ๐
I remember and you shared a video I recall, so laughter is healthy for the system.
Mine is also out now.
Have a wonderful evening Jackie.
Yepโฆ the mooi was Dutch. You did notice.
Yepโฆ in a train or something like that.
As long as we have a giggle a day ๐
Thanks a lot Joe, you too!
