Russell by fast Ferry

As the title suggests, we took a fast ferry to Russel today, and spent a couple of hours wandering round the old colonial bits and had a spot of lunch. Another beautiful day as can be seen from the blue sky, but a bit cooler out of the sun.
It was a bit of a struggle to persuade Ollie to walk down the ramp and then onto the boat on the way out, but he was very enthusiastic to get on for the return. Strange dog, I'll test him on the Rangitane ramp and pontoon tomorrow !
