On enging room fires and future cruises...

Ok, so the Carnival Triumph is being towed back to port after an engine room fire. I guess there is only one thing to do- book another cruise. We are set to go on the Carnival Freedom, an 8 day cruise out of Ft. Lauderdale 10/19/13. Some new port calls for us: Turks and Cacaos, Dominican Republic, Curacao, and Aruba.


I read reports regarding the Carnival Triumph situation. One poster on the Carnival Facebook site was aghast that cruisers were being directed to pee in the shower. She said that as if it were a bad thing… like most men have never done that before at home. Hopefully Patti does not read this.

I do think Carnival has some things to answer for. Especially if they really did have maintenance issues leading up to the event that they did not address. But, we love to cruise and will continue to do so. If my neighbor gets in a car accident it does not mean I will stop driving my car.
