Here is the “Costa Concordia” wreck just outside Giglio Porto, on the
Isola del Giglio. We are not in Livorno and we are even outside our province, but the
Costa Concordia disaster happened inside the area of the Livorno MRSC (Maritime Rescue Sub-Centre).

This was such a shocking occurrence.
I agree with Jack.
This picture is one that will never leave our memory.
Your Wiki link reads like a horror story. There was one error after another, that fateful night, including this about the captain:
"However, the ship's first officer, Ciro Ambrosio, told investigators that Schettino had left his reading glasses in his cabin and repeatedly asked Ambrosio to check the radar for him."
It's been in the news yesterday... So you aren't in Parigi?
I remember.....
Also the face of the captain and the voice of the coast guard man, ( a telephone call) that followed the film/the news on TV.
A disaster that should not have happened!!
And the captain left the place.... Crazy!!
I also remember...a sad event.
Léia
ciel - Sadly no Paris this summer...
...And so many different stories (and versions) have happened there.
I also agree with Jack, a sad picture I'll never forget.
Chissà quanto ci dovrà stare ancora quell'affare lì :( ciao, Arianna
Sickening! And many of those who were not found were German. :(
