Summary: One of Germany's best-known cruise ships caught fire Sunday while visiting the coast of Norway, forcing a ship-wide evacuation. all 364 passengers aboard the Peter Deilmann Cruises vessel were taken off safely and are now on land. The news service says the fire began in the ship's machine room and was quickly contained. There's no word yet on how significant the damage was to the vessel.
My Thoughts: I think it would be horrible to be the people on the boat because you would have to stop before your destination and it would just ruin your whole vacation. Some people don't get a lot of time for vacation so when they make time to go they really want to relax. But, if there's a fire on a ship that wouldn't be very relaxing. I think it's good that none were hurt.
