My brother-in-law, Lee, was on a flight to San Diego last night. He
sat next to some people who were going on a cruise to Hawaii on Holland
America. I don't recall if he said they were supposed to board the ship
tonight
or tomorrow, but the people will be delayed by a day.


They told Lee that the cruise line was paying for their hotel stay in
San Diego, because Holland America was involved in a search and rescue
operation.


Lee said they didn't have any details as to where this seach was, or if
it involved a passenger, or someone on another boat, or what happened.


Has anybody heard anything about this?


Take a look at this link from Hawaii

Humour for the thinking person:
1) If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?
2) Why do banks charge you a "non-sufficient funds fee" on money they
already
know you do not have?
