There are few things on this planet that I despise more than cruise ships. Be it the small Italian coastal towns, the beautiful fjords in Norway, tropical islands, wherever they go, it's like a swarm of locusts completely overwhelming those places. We once were in Norway at a Fjord and there was a cruise ship taking a tour. The Fjord was filled to the top with smoke from the f*%#ng ship's chimney.

- WastingMyTime89 4y agoThis is not a very apt comparison however. Cars are not primarily used for leisure.
- dzhiurgis 4y agoYet by pure numbers they are def doing more miles than ships.
- egeozcan 4y agoI sincerely hope that all cruise ship business assets sink without anyone on board and no toxic waste stored in the most suitable part of the oceans to form a reef reminiscent of the gardens of babel. Horrible for the environment and horrible for those working on them. That being said, what a magnificent piece of engineering, creating a vessel sustaining so many people in the middle of the part of the planet that comes only second to deserts for the worst place to be in for surviving. Such waste of brilliant engineering...
