Hi, I understand that you weren't to know but the Saltire is a very offensive flag in Shetland. You won't hear it from the media but we suffered centuries of cruel oppression from Scotland. An example is the rich land owners(Lairds) who evicted families from their little rented croft houses and land to make way for sheep. The henchmen from the Lairds would burn the little house to the ground so the families couldn't return.
NorthLink Ferry looks very nice... a shower is a welcome sight. The restaurant is a good place to hang out to eat and have a beer. Good thing your chair won't fly away while you're cruising to the 12 hr. trip to the Shetland islands... plenty of time to sample the local beer. Wonderful trip!!!! Looks exciting.
This ferry looks fancy, beautiful views
:)
Bob! the ride looks great!
Thanks Al!
That’s a cool way to get there
It was fun
Sooo beautiful! Thanks for sharing. It reminded me of my ferry trip from Normandy to Great Britain. Déjà vu.
Thanks for watching 🙂
That’s pretty awesome Bobby. I gotta ask, do you ever get TANKED on your journeys? 🍺🍺
Haha! not usually, I try not to get too tanked up.

You're right, we had know idea. Also here in America the media never tells the whole story.
