jckvpa0 Posted February 11, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2005 DH says the water is from the ocean & goes through a water purfying system & that is why the pressure is so great. I keep on hearing how the water pressure in the shower is so great, it does make me wounder how? 3,000. plus people taking showers, laundrey, toilets,& drinking water just to mention a few makes me wounder where all the water comes from. I was thinking there were water tanks on board that they filled @ the beginging of the cruise & refilled when they went into port. Think my dh is going to win on this one!

springtxbill Posted February 11, 2005 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2005 You are both right. When you are at a dock and you see some blue hoses running to the ship, they are taking on water at the port. They also make a lot of their own and mix it. With fuel prices very high they take on more water from the dock. The pressure is just high due to pumps on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jckvpa0 Posted February 11, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I like when were both right,(actually when I'm right). Another thought, they can't do laundry while in port. So how are they getting all those robes,sheets & towels clean for the new people boarding the ship? They must have one big stock room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtxbill Posted February 11, 2005 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I know they treat their wastewater and if the laundry water can not be discharged in port they would have a tank to hold it until they got out. The seawage water is not mixed with the laundry, shower water.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
can'twaittacruise Posted February 11, 2005 #7 Share Posted February 11, 2005 Robes are picked up the day before you leave. That way if you forget and pack all of your clothes, you can't wear a Carnival robe off ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
