I Just want to wish everyone and all BC Ferries employees a Merry Christmas and a great holiday season! Yes, even those poor people who have to work on Christmas day to get people like us to our destinations!
Ok here is a little something I found out of the BC Ferries Dolphin
newsletter back in December of 98.
I think this is a good poem, especially tonight, Christmas Eve!!
A little christmas poem,
T'WAS the night before CHRISTMAS and all through the fleet
The ships were tied up, every sailing complete
All the stockings were hung by the funnels with care
In the hope that Saint Nicholas soon would be there
Then to what the crews' amazement appeared
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
The jolly old driver looked kind of distressed
In fact this old Santa seemed downright depressed
"I'm looking for help," he said to the crew
"My reindeer are tired and my sleigh's broken too
To get to the islands, there's only one way
I hope BC Ferries can help save the day"
The crew said, "Okay, we can sure island-hop
But we think your request should go straight to the top"
As I and the missus were getting ready for bed
The crew phoned are home about the man dressed in red
"Of course we'll help out," said I to the crew
"It's customer service, the least we can do!"
Soon they were busy delivering toys
For our men and our women it brought so much joy
And througout the islands, what a wonderful sight
As the SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS sailed through the night.
