Yep, that’s my real name! Wasn’t so much fun when Star Wars first came out, but other than that I love it.

I have to ask, as I see your name come up in a lot of feeds these days, is Talon Windwalker your real name? If so, that’s one hell of a surname for a traveller! Born for it, I’d say.

Safe travels. Jonny

It wouldn’t surprise me if nothing has changed. LOL It definitely doesn’t seem they have too tight of a border control, which is nice on one hand.

Hmm. What trouble did you have? We went by bus, and it went without a hitch.

Glad they let you in, in the end. It’s always unnerving when someone official-looking has your passport and is talking about you in a language you don’t understand… phew!

My dad caught this ferry in the 1970s btw. I should ask him about that one… I wonder if anything’s changed?

We had to learn the hard way on our crossing from Ecuador into Peru. Thanks for the great info!

They definitely can pack a vehicle!

Thankfully, no eyes were lost in this adventure. And no nose broken. LOL

Oddly, I don’t remember much about the ferry itself (it was quite a few years back now) but one of the things I remember is, arriving to Algeciras by road, we were constantly amazed by the cars around us which were over-laden with goods. Families returning to Morocco with everything but the kitchen sink! Made the meaning of that phrase come true! I never would have thought it possible to cram so much onto a roof rack!

Glad that you gents managed to get it sorted out without any more wildly gesticulating limbs being thrown into the mix – it sounds like someone was about to lose an eye!
