I have been following the story on the cruise ship that lost it's main engine at sea.Now that I know everyone is safe back in San Diego, I have had time to think about what was being said about the cruise. They had only cold showers, warm drinks, tolites that didn't work,and the food was spam and poptarts.
When we went for a cruise on our sail boat, and I am in no way makeing light of their plight, we took showers on deck either salt water over the head out of a bucket or a rain shower.We had cool drinks till the ice ran out. The tolite broke down a few times and had to be rebuilt at sea. And yes,we did eat spam along with a lot of other can goods. I guess the main dfference was our expectations of the cruise. I did not expect cool drinks and expected spam. The people on the cruise ship did expect ice in their drinks and fine dinning. That is a good thing for me to keep in mind, what are my expectations?
