Ship Fire!

A cruise ship from the same fleet as the Costa Concordia
is being towed to safety after drifting without power in the middle of the
Indian Ocean after a fire.

It broke out in the generator room but has not spread to any
other part of the ship at everyone relief.

After sending out a distress signal on Monday, the ship is being towed by
a French fishing vessel.

It's heading to the nearby Desroches island in the Seychelles.
There are more than 1,000 people on board and officials say everyone is safe
and well, which of course is good.

The Costa Allegra belongs to Costa Cruises. The company also own the Costa
Concordia, which capsized off the Italian coast in January, killing 32 people.

I know i won't be traveling with costa in the future if thing's like this keep happening.
