What's this?

Took a cruise out of Tampa left a day late to get out in between hurricanes

One came through so they had to stay off the coast an extra day.
Then they hurried us on and got out before another came along right behind it.
They had to book it to turn over for us new passengers. They had borded up the windows on the bottom few decks because the waves were so high. Talking to the crew that week they said that's the worst they've experienced and many of them were so sick.
