Somali Pirates strike again!!

Well well well, as you all know I'm quite nosy and often search world news for cruise tit bits and info that I can share with you all. but I didn't have to look very far for toady's info. Toady's Daily Mail headline is a Saga ship Somali pirates have tracked across the Indian Ocean and all passengers were ordered to the decks below for safety: Click here to read the full article.

The spirit of Adventure travelling from Madagascar to Zanzibar with up to 350 passengers who assumed
to be mostly British travellers when it was set upon by pirates. It just remind me of the poor couple who have been held hostage by pirates thinking that our government would pay the ransom! Paul and Rachel Chandler who werenear the Seychelles on their yacht 'Lynn Rival' when the pirates stuck taking them both - Luckily they have now been released and are back home with their families. Everyone here at cruise.co.uk is just as relived as I am that the captain on the Saga ship was able to hold all the security measures together and ensure that there were no injuries, and the pirates did not manage to get on board!
