Problem at port in Tampa?

[Mystaken]

Rhonda,

what station? all I'm finding is prayer service in Boston

 

Donna, don't know if this will work or not because I'm on my droid.

It must have been pretty scary. Demise said they were told to run!

Well, the stupid droid corrected me wrong. Hope you can find it.

[waterbugohio]

got it. Thanks

 

Looks like there were going thru cases of beer or wine? Was hoping it was just drugs (I know that sounds terrible)

According to Sky News here in the UK there is a suspicious package on the dock at Tampa. It's going along the bottom as breaking news but the newscaster hasn't said any more yet.

I know, sounds awful but I was basically thinking the same thing! :o

Well several of us are drinking up at the hotel bar just in case there's a shortage later.;)

Here is a clickable link to the story, with video of the bomb squad searching some boxes that were destined to be loaded onto the ship:

Hopefully it will turn out to be nothing!

Hi the problem at tampa port has just been on news they have found a suspious package.

[Mystaken]

Thanks quantumleap!

 

It looks like Jack Daniels to me.

 

Wrona, will you let us know when you get onboard, please?

CNN just posted a story 11 minutes ago that they located as "suspicious" package that was on a pallet that was to be loaded onto the RC cruise ship.

[cruzegurl104]

Crazy stuff! I've always thought about this.. What if something got onto the ship that wasn't supposed to, or if a "worker" was tied into Al-Quada, and just so happened to plant something. Oh, gees.. What a world we live in. I pray it's nothing but a false alarm!!:(

[wrp96]

Outside the port now. We've been told at least 45 minutes more.

[wrp96]

We've also heard the dogs hit on 3 separate things on the pallet.

[printingchick]

Does anyone know if the dogs alert ONLY to explosives, or do they alert to drugs as well? Clearly they are assuming this is the former, rather than the latter. No need to clear the area for smuggled drugs!

 

Keep us posted!!! So good to have this forum to get the REAL SCOOP!!! :)

[wrp96]

They just started letting staff on. Told us about 30 minutrs

We sail on her on Monday. Please keep us posted. Crazy world!!

 

 

 

Me too... :D I'll see you then....

[Eriksgarden]

Glad it looks like it was nothing. Not exactly the excitement you want before a cruise. Have fun!!!

That sounds promissing...

 

Geez, Wrona... another crazy cruise story to tell... you are getting quite the portfolio!

[printingchick]

Maybe it was a dog biscuit?? :p

They are letting guest board now. I have friend who was at the port early this morning she just went through the carry on bag check.
