Caribbean Ship in Storm

Has anyone heard anything about this, apparently the ship listed and pianos were thrown about etc, four passengers were hurt

What "Caribbean ship"? Do you mean the Caribbean Princess? Or a ship in the Caribbean Sea? :confused:

by the looks of the bridgecam, the seas look a little nasty for the CB....

This being the Princess cruise forum, yes the Princess Caribbean ship

:rolleyes:

There are other Princess ships sailing thru the Caribbean at the moment, hence the confusion. I wondered the same thing.

Thank you. Glad it wasn't only me that thought the thread title was unclear.

There's only one Princess ship named the Caribbean, I meant to put a smiley, 'Drives'

Where did you hear about this? I have friends on this cruise, so I'm interested.

...and there is only one body of water named "Caribbean":) where ships sail.

Yep, there is a storm pounding NE today.

Ships location can be found at ****************************/schiffsposition.php?schiff=Caribbean+Princess

Seas do appear to be a bit testy !

Chrysalis, let's not be petty, in the UK the grammar in that case would have been....Ship in the Caribbean in Storm

Look, it's like this....if this was a Macdonald's forum and I complain about the chips/chicken, someone says..do you mean MacDonald's chips/chicken?;)

Where did you get the information about people being hurt, etc?

No, that's not it. You're missing the point. The point is that your thread was vague. Instead of automatically assuming what you meant, I chose to ask questions so that we were talking about the same thing.

The ship is called the Caribbean Princess. If you're referring to it, you should use the name or the acronym. A "ship in the Caribbean" could be any one of about 50 different ships, or at least about 5 different Princess ships at the moment.

I was just trying to figure out what you meant. ;)

jeese, I know it would but I named the thread..Caribbean ship in Storm...on a Princess cruise thread!! i.e...the Caribbean ship.

It's not on the P & O or the Holland and American forums

Anyway have a nice day, I'm off out now.:)

....and to add to that, just because it is posted on the Princess thread does not automatically mean it relates to Princess. So you reference to McDonalds is meaningless.

Take a look the the main Princess page here and note the threads that have nothing to do with Princess cruise lines. I won't bother to count them, but there are quiet a few.

I don't feel so bad knowing that I was not the only one who knew what you were talking about. We were only seeking clarification, not a lesson in grammar.

#If I made you sigh

If I made you cry

If I told a lie

I'm sorry

From the bottom of my heart dear

I apologise#

If you knew what she was talking about, why feel so bad?:p

More than a dozen posts and we still have only rumors! Someone better bloody well get on the horn to THE Caribbean Ship (not just any, mind you!) and get us some facts!:D

Please clarify the source? What staff member?

In any case, the seas do look to be a tad choppy. I would steer clear of the dancing pianos.

Currently onboard, off the coast of New England. We're in a storm, with gale-force winds up to 70 knots. We listed a bit this morning ... several waiters in the Horizon Court fell, carrying trays of food or other dining supplies. A piano in the Explorer's Lounge slid off the stage, and was totaled. The galley and backstage tours were cancelled. The captain (Marco Fortezze) has slowed down; haven't heard yet if this will impact our arrival time back in Brooklyn tomorrow morning.

Otherwise, it has been a nice cruise. The only poor weather day was in Bar Harbor. In Acadia Park, we reached the top of Cadillac Mountain, and it was snowing! And arrival in Halifax yesterday was met with a brisk 32 degrees.

why would I do that? Identify a member?

It's perhaps on the news somewhere on the net

Thanks so much for your post. This certainly explains things very clearly.
