MSC Bellissima set sail off the coast of Italy with more than 4490 passengers on board. For unknown reasons, the ship lost power in particularly dangerous waters off the Spain coast called Montgat. An evacuation team began airlifting passengers to safety via helicopter. The ship rocked in the waves and high winds, causing glass to shatter, heavy objects to fall and slide, and cabins to flood.

The ship was stranded for 24 hours before it regained power and was tugged back to shore. Twenty people were injured, everyone's trips were refunded, and the rest of the cruise was canceled.

MSC Bellissima is just the latest in a string of new ships for Europe-based MSC Cruises, which is in the midst of a massive expansion.

Like its sister, MSC Meraviglia, which debuted in 2017, Bellissima will be significantly bigger than most of the ships in the MSC fleet, and it will have all the trappings of a major megaresort. Among them: An Aqua Park with three water slides, a splash pool and an adventurous "Himalayan Bridge" sky walk that allows passengers to cross the vessel nearly 200 feet above the water.

Bellissima also will boast an 82-foot-long main pool, an amusement area with race car simulators, a flight simulator, a 4D cinema, a full-sized bowling alley and an interior promenade covered by one of the largest LED domes at sea. There also will be an aft pool that transforms into a dance area at night, a massive kiddie zone and exclusive Cirque du Soleil at Sea shows performed in a custom-made entertainment venue.

Twelve distinct dining venues on Bellissima will include a sushi bar, teppanyaki restaurant, American-style steakhouse and a new-for-MSC specialty restaurant called HOLA! Tapas Bar by Ramón Freixa.

Among other new features, Bellissima will have a state-of-the-art, in-cabin digital cruise assistant, Zoe, available in seven languages.

Bellissima is the second of MSC's new Meraviglia Class of ships. Two more, larger "Meraviglia Plus" vessels will be coming in late 2019 and 2020. With their arrival, the line will have four of the largest cruise ships in the world.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
