glrounds Posted April 9, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I was amazed at how Carnival managed to get all their employee home in what looked like a very ordered well-thought-out plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linsuesue Posted April 9, 2021 #5 Share Posted April 9, 2021 That is a very informative video that explains how we got to this point in cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naxer Posted April 10, 2021 #6 Share Posted April 10, 2021 That was very interesting. (I think YouTube is changing our speaking patterns. I never hear so much upspeak, uptalk, high rising terminal--whatever you want to call it--as from YouTube narrators. I don't know if I will ever get used to it.)

Reminds me of that news commentator from, I want to say, the 70's or 80's that had perfect pronunciation/enunciation. His name completely escapes me. OP -- thanks for the video. That was indeed very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
