An illness outbreak aboard a Cunard Cruise Line ship has spread, now leaving at least 154 people experiencing symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"The cause of the gastrointestinal disease outbreak aboard the Queen Victoria cruise, which ... is currently unknown." I'll take a guess. Some "migrant" working with the food took a crap and didn't wash his/her hands. Why people do cruises is beyond me. -sammy
Imagine paying lots of money to be in the middle of the ocean with a couple thousand people you don't know or like then you come up with projectile puking and the Hershey 2-step, so you look to heaven and pleadingly ask God: "Why me"? and God replies: "Cause you piss me off"!
My wife talked me into a cruise. My summary of the event. When you leave your cabin, you enter a noisy shopping mall. That's it. If you like shopping and malls, you are good. If you, like me, never liked shopping or malls, you got nothing. Spent a few hours on 3 different islands where you have the opportunity to, surprise, shop. Enjoyed riding around in the open tour buses a little, but it wasn't like I had time or opportunity to really see or learn anything.

ReplyDeleteWhich is why personally, I would NEVER take a cruise on a large liner. And given the height to waterline ratio, I see these vessels as 'crank'

ReplyDeleteCan you imagine the schools of fish following this boat with all of the pax chumming the waters from their decks?
That is why I refer to cruise ships as floating petri dishes.

ReplyDeleteHow long do you think it's been since the fresh water holds and lines were cleaned out?
