I am onboard the Disney Wonder, my home away from home, and the safety drill turns into more and more of a free-or-all every time. Yesterday's was the best ever! This family of five comes toddling in like five minutes late. Two of the kids are dressed in dripping wet swimsuits, despite the pre-drill instructions that are repeated ad naseum to actually be DRESSED. The third kid in a baby, wheeled in in a carriage laden down with enough supplies to take care of the third panzer division. Uh. duh! Do they really think their Hummer-sized stroller is going on the lifeboat with them? Not only that, but they brought a packed duffel bag!!
They come to the wrong station (ours, naturally) and set up right in the aisle where they can effectively block everyone. I was rather surprised that they weren't sent to the right station and made to get out of the aisle, as the crew members are usually pretty strict about that. But instead, they spent the whole drill with the kids whining and yelling, "When do we get to blow the whistles?!?!?" Makes me shudder to imagine people like that in a real emergency. We'd probably all drown because we'd be trapped in the aisles behind their crap while they spend an hour arguing to be allowed to take their stroller on the lifeboat.

Well.....the drill was....interesting.
People wandering up late.....having issues about having to do the drill....etc.
Now had something happened, I probably would not be here talking to you all, since I heard NONE of what the CM said since the people behind and next to me decided this was a good time to loudly discuss their plans for the next 4 days.
