Carvinal and Costa Rica

Did you see on the news how a tourist on a Carnival ship killed a robber in Costa Rica last week? At first the news was reporting that they were tourists from our boat (the Legend) but it turns out that they were on the Liberty but on the same cruise itinerary as we had...8 days in the Caribbean and Central America. That could have been us....huh?

I thought it was interesting how the news made a big deal out of how the guy was a retired military person with self defense training...like he was some sort of lethal weapon or something...if you ask me, the lethal weapon was the idiot holding the gun to begin with.

Didn't hear about that particular story, but it is always weird to hear how close we really are to situations like that.
