Save your sore feet and catch a free ride from the Funland Parking Lot on the Taste Chuck Wagon! The Chuck Wagon will be making round trips from the parking lot to the entrance of the Taste all day long, courtesy of Penguin Windows. Look for the shuttle stop sign at the top of the lot- shuttles are first-come, first-serve.If you're coming from Vashon on the ferry, we recommend you walk on and ride the ferry across if you are able. If you choose to drive, please be advised that you'll have to follow the flow of traffic up Pearl Street, turn around, and then proceed back down Pearl Street to access the parking lot. If you choose to walk onto the ferry, there is a hill to climb to get to the park, which may pose some issue for those in wheelchairs or who have mobility issues.
