My house is about 10 minutes from the ferry. Anyways to get TO the ferry... from your house... take 128th/airport road w towards boeing... go through all the stop lights until you get to the last one that is under a highway... you are looking straight at a wall & the boeing plant. Take a LEFT. This will bring you onto the 2 lane highway. You will want to be in the right lane... you should see signs to the ferry... you will take a RIGHT at teh signs & it will take you to the speedway. Simply follow it until you see the ferry lane!!! You will see the holding lane... if there is a line get into as soon as you see the line. If not you get into it when you see the sign 'ALL FERRY VEHICLES MUST USE RIGHT LANE NOW' or something like that, its a big white sign. Anyways that will take you all the way to the ferry dock. You can buy the round trip tickets on your way over... check out the WSF website for fares... I know leaving the island you only have to pay for car & driver, not passengers. Anyways it runs every 30 minutes... & its about a 20 minute crossing. If you have more Questions let me know, thats just whats off the top of my head!
