carman63 Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 wait... I thought it was MINI Themed? Just wear a hat - any hat - and declare yourself to be a pirate. When they ask where your buccaneers are, tell them... "Under my buccin' hat." Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week...

GreenCactus Posted July 6, 2015 Report Posted July 6, 2015 Depends on how lowered... Michael and I don't scrape. Also, the river will probably be pretty high, so the angle to board and exit the ferry won't be as steep.
