Carnival Triumph engine fire; lost power; tug boats pulling it to Mobile, AL.

The 500 or so McDonald's franchisees and executives onboard should at least be used to the conditions if they've spent much time in one of their restaurants.

We cruise on Carnival 5 months from today! laugh out loud (different ship though)

if i wanted to be stuck at sea, i'd join the damn navy. at least they pay you instead of you payin them. 90% of the time you are on the damn boat except for the few hours they let you off to buy stuff someplace besides the dumb ship stores. i'm flyin to cancun next time
You couldn't pay me to join the Navy or take a cruise. laugh out loud

we only had a few hours there because the jackass captain had to take our ship thousands of miles out of the way to drop off cold sandwiches to the stranded ship. all excursions were cancelled & I was screwed out of my opportunity to visit chichen itza. all we had time for was the crappy flea markes that sucked so bad it maee the New Orleans French Market look like Saks.

I love the masks in Nola. They're so cute. Did they offer y'all a refund too?
