That accident was so tragic
I'm sorry for the families who lost loved ones. I can't imagine what they must've gone through
P.S. Not to side track too much on this thread, but I've seen and read about many ferry accidents such as this where people have drowned/died, so when we went to Bermuda last summer I insisted on standing outside of the doors (there was an indoor seating area) even though the mist of the waves completely drenched me (we were in regular clothes, not bathing suits). When we go on our
Disney cruise this summer we have to take a "high speed ferry" from Cozumel to Mexico's mainland for the Tulum ruins excursion, and I will again be on the outside of the ferry, hopefully able to jump or swim away if anything should happen. People think I am nuts for these little "quirks" of mine, and you know I used to wear my seatbelt way before it was a law and before the crashtest dummies showed how severe even slow moving impacts can be, but to me it's common sense to keep yourself as safe as possible. I don't think I go overboard with these "fears", I just use common sense and try to keep myself and my family out of potential harm in any given situation.
P.P.S. Yes, I do realize that things can happen out of the blue and no one is safe from all accidents, but I just try and use caution when possible. Anyone else think this same way??
