So get this - I was reading this article about how a Carnival cruise got hit with a brutal storm and had to be evacuated. It’s insane! Basically, the ship was flooded with water and people had to stand on deck in the pouring rain until they finally got rescued by the coast guard.
From what I gathered, the ship was on its way from New Jersey to the Bahamas when the storm hit, and it was pretty bad. The waves were reportedly as high as 30 feet, and the ship tilted so much that furniture and people were sliding around. The crew tried to calm everyone down, but eventually they had to evacuate the ship because the flooding was so bad.
What’s wild is that apparently this isn’t the first time this has happened on a Carnival cruise. I mean, I’ve never been on a cruise myself, but now I’m not so sure I ever will! It just seems like such a scary experience.
Overall, I think it’s important to know that while cruises can be fun and relaxing, they’re not immune to dangerous situations like this one. It’s always good to be prepared and to understand the potential risks involved.
