    Walt Disney’s former California estate sells for $74 million

    That is not Walt's home. The home Walt lived was torn down and the present owners built the one the video is trying to pass off as Disney's. AKK

    Rides That Broke Down

    I never heard of the CM's singing a song........The round tackle(anchoring gear) is cleared and the anchor usually walked out(hanging clear of the hawse pipe) somewhat, well before entering or nearing an anchorage or channel. The dropping of the anchor, once the command is given in a matter of...

    Carnival just cannot catch a break!

    Most know I am not a Carnival fan.........but in this case, she got caught up in some nasty weather and the Captain really had no way to get out of it. King Triton and Mother nature will win out in the end! AKK

    The foreign flag vessels can sail from and to the same US port. They cannot carry passengers to different US ports. If the foreign flag vessel sails from PC to say......NYC, and discharges passengers there, there is a heavy fine............the last I remember is was $125.00 per passenger. I am...
