Zuiderdam Threatened with GUNS in Costa Rica - Cruise Line Fans: Cruise Forum, Reviews and Chat From Real Cruisers

GeneK and his wife, Sharon, are currently sailing on Z-Dam. Seems the striking dock workers threatened Z-Dam with GUNS when the Captain tried to dock!

Gene posted this today (10/23... live from the ship) in the Cruise Places section here on CLF under Costa Rica:

Great job, Gene, for reporting this to us!

Yes, thanks to our wonderful members, who think of us even when they are at sea, we scooped everyone on this, as Lulu pointed out on the other thread

I thought Yonnie was onboard, but it looks like she's boarding it tomorrow.

Hopefully, Yonnie won't have those problems on her back to back.

Yonnie will not put up with problems like those! She will march down the plank push the guns to the side and tell the militants to behave.

Pity we didn't send along the official CLF Press Corps, then.

Hey, if I were there, the ship would probably have been stormed by the insurgents, the crew taken hostage, and all the bread pudding eaten. And all because I remarked "What is this fool activity all about?"

At that point your hair dryer would have come in very handy ....
