Cruise Health

You may ask why this is on my blog. It's a travel matter, really.

Let me start out by listing the recent articles of people getting sick on cruise ships.

Freedom of the Seas Caribbean Cruise
M.S. Oosterdam Mexican Rivera Cruise
Liberty Trans-Atlantic Cruise
Sea Princess Western European cruise

Kind of makes you want to skip the cruise, but don't the ships are taking action...

The photo above was taken by a crew member of a recent cruise that I took. The hands are mine. I decided I wanted a picture of this sanitation device because I thought it was so clever to have on board. I had asked a crew member nearby to photography me washing my hands. She did a great job framing the image.

These little space-age looking machines were everywhere on the cruise ship--entry ways to public rooms, restaurants and at the beginning of the buffet lines.

Kudos to the Norwegian Star, the ship I traveled on.
