I want to see Troy
Before the topless towers
Toppled into ruin.

the local ferry.

Spoiler: show

Seriously, some people drove their cars right off the jetty and into the river because their GPS did not smack them with the explicit instruction to stop and wait here until the ferry is present and boarding.
