  1. My husband and I saw a lady on Mariner of the Seas with a tiny dog she pushed in a special stroller. She took it into the buffet and everything. There are licensed emotional companion dogs here in Ca. They can't be denied even to live in Apartments without pets. You have to have a doctor fill out the application to get one. When I worked in the Cruise terminal in San Francisco years ago, We used to work the Old Regal Princess 10 day turn around for Alaska and Mexico. One sailing to Alaska the ship welcomed 200 blind guests and their dogs. It was an amazing thing to witness. They brought a huge roll of sod and laid it on the top deck so the dogs could play and use the bathroom in comfort, Yes there were other cruise guests on board who were not part of the party, but they all said they had a spectacular cruise, the dogs were wonderfully behaved of course, and it was said they all had a fantastic time as well.

  2. What a tragedy. I just keep thinking about the lone survivor, and how the passengers tried to help.

  3. Heard today that the Captain may not ever have gotten the word; breakdown somewhere lower down the chain. I surely hope they get to the bottom of this, and figure out a way to improve notifications to the bridge crew.

  4. Huge article in our paper today about this as well. Sad and tragic story. Hopefully all of the details will come out.

    Hawaii

    You don't have to do the roundtrip from the west coast with 5 days at sea going and coming back. NCL sails interisland 7 days cruise with no "at sea" days, including two island overnights (Maui and Kauai). They also do a 10 night cruise with 9 days in Hawaiin ports, including an overnight the first night in Honolulu with a 6pm departure the 2nd day, and only 1 at sea day. I'd say, do one of these to get a feel for each island, and then you can go back on a land vacation on the one you like best.
