Carnival Cruise Ship Stranded For 3rd Day - Sewage "Running Down The Walls"
Ever been on a cruise ship?
I haven't and this is one of the reasons why. I'm sure people have had good times, but to me, you are a prisoner to the ship once you leave shore. "Foul conditions aboard stranded Carnival cruise ship Triumph: Passengers describe 'sewage running down the walls' and people acting like 'savages' Since a fire broke out in an engine room Sunday morning, the Carnival Triumph has been drifting off the coast of Mexico. A total of 3,143 passengers and 1,086 crew have been forced to make do with cold food, no hot water, sweltering indoor temperatures, and few working toilets. A tow boat is expected Thursday, after an initial plan to tow the ship to a port in Mexico was scrapped."

The food is really good, and not just 'for a buffet', and they have high dollar stuff, too. Entertainment varies quite a bit from ship to ship... the one I went on had a rock climbing wall, basketball/volleyball courts, an ice skating rink, performance theater and movie theater, something like 8 pools, roller blading, a bunch of crafts, comedy, shopping, club-like parties; and if that's too much, a private balcony is a great way to get away from people... if you can't find something that interests you on the ship, much less at port, you're either a 15 year old without his xbox and/or have a very narrow view of entertainment.

More info Marty
From Carnival Update on Carnival Triumph February 13, 2013 – 2:30pm EST We are mobilizing approximately 200 people to be on the ground in Mobile to support the Carnival Triumph’s arrival and guests’ travel home. We are currently finalizing travel arrangements for guests from Mobile. Carnival Triumph guests were given the option of boarding buses directly to Galveston or Houston, Texas, or to spend the night in a hotel in New Orleans, where they could rest before flying out on private charters the next day. Carnival will cover all travel related and incidental expenses. Carnival has reserved and arranged the following: approximately 100 motor coaches; more than 1,500 New Orleans hotel rooms; multiple charter flights from New Orleans to Houston on Friday; and transportation from Houston to the Port of Galveston so that guests may retrieve their cars if they drove to the port. |

Oh well, I'll just go hunting again because that's the best part of the game...especially in the great plains where you can get buffalo.
