Rheinfähre


In Basel there a four little ferries that go back and forth across the Rhine. One of them, the Leu, goes from below the Münster to the opposite bank, over here in Kleinbasel. Yesterday we took it before walking along the river to come home. It was so cool. Especially because they are powered solely by the river- the angle of the rudder is changed to push the boat back and forth, dragging it along a cable suspended above the water. I want to go again!
