Friends of ours returned very recently from a Princess cruise to the Panama Canal and a couple of islands. They tell us that during the cruise a woman fell overboard. When this happened they say there was a public announcement of "Man Overboard" and steps were taken to find the woman. They did find her body.

Does anyone else know about this? We were shocked as there had not been anything in the news that we saw here in the Toronto area. With the spotlight on cruising generally right now, would the cruise line hush this up? Or are our friends having us on in a rather gruesome way?
