Girl ‘falls overboard from 4th deck of Disney Dream cruise ship' sparking frantic rescue mission
A GIRL reportedly fell overboard from a Disney cruise vessel, sparking an urgent rescue mission. The incident happened when the Disney Dream ship was returning back to Fort Lauderdale, Florida on June 29. 1 The ship was heading back to Florida as part of a four-day trip to the Bahamas. Kevin Furuta, a passenger on board the vessel, which can carry up to 3,500 travelers, claimed a girl fell from the fourth deck of the ship. In a Facebook post, he said the child's dad jumped into the water in a frantic bid to save his daughter. Furuta revealed passengers heard the man overboard alarm on the ship's loudspeaker. Fellow passenger Dewayne Smith said the crew jumped into action "asap." "Lots of praying folks on this ship!" he wrote on Facebook. "Both the little girl and dad were both successfully rescued!" A Disney Cruises official told the Fox affiliate WOFL-TV that two people were rescued from the water swiftly. 'We commend our Crew Members for their exceptional skills and prompt actions, which ensured the safe return of both guests to the ship within minutes,' they said. 'We are committed to the safety and well-being of our guests, and this incident highlights the effectiveness of our safety protocols." The ship has plexiglass barriers, so it remains unknown how the girl went overboard. The Disney Dream vessel is due to dock in Florida on June 30. It departed Fort Lauderdale on June 26 before arriving in Nassau, The Bahamas, the following morning. The ship then toured around Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point on June 28. It cost $900 million to build in 2010 and it has 14 decks. The vessel, which has 1250 cabins, was last refurbished in 2024, according to Cruise Mapper. And, it can reach top speeds of 25mph. In December, a man, 51, traveling on board a Norwegian Cruise Line vessel heading to the Bahamas went overboard. A frantic search was launched before it was later abandoned after officials could not find the passenger. The vessel was in the middle of a Caribbean voyage, having left Port Canaveral on December 21. In December last year, a man vanished without a trace after falling overboard from the Ruby Princess cruise ship. .

She has registered more than 23,000 babies, including those named after pop singers, sports stars, and TV soap opera characters. When Jennifer started the job in 1989, Kylie and Jason were the names of choice as a result of the Australian soap drama Neighbours. Through the years, the names of characters from Star Wars movies and the Harry Potter books also had a burst of Friday, Jennifer's career had a full circle moment as she oversaw the wedding of two people whose births she had registered in the early 1990s, Ryan and Carla she prepares to leave Belfast City Hall, Jennifer told BBC News NI she has "mixed emotions"."I'll miss the job. I've really enjoyed it. I've had some special moments. It's been a privilege." One tale Jennifer will never forget is when a bride arrived at City Hall and struggled to get out of the wedding car due to a few too many drinks the night quickly realised that even if she got the bride to the ceremony, the wedding vows would be slurred not said."I think she had her hen party the night before and she just wasn't in a fit state to be married," said Jennifer."We asked her to come back later that day. By then she had been given plenty of coffee, and she was able to be married."If there's any way we can help people, we will try to do it."

It's just wonderful, some of the stories we hear," she said.A best man confided in her once before a wedding, saying he felt the soon-to-be-married couple would be better to just stay good remembers: "They went ahead and got married on the Friday. On the Monday morning, the groom came into me to see if he could cancel the marriage."But it had already taken place, I had signed the registration so I said, 'No you'll have to see a solicitor'." Dealing with the registration of deaths can be a very different emotional remembers comforting a mother whose son had taken his own life."It was good to be able to help, just by listening to her. People trust us a lot and it's lovely," she said. A household name Her career started at City Hall in the late 1980s when there was no internet or has changed in society since then, but one thing has stayed the same, her said: "I've come across a lot of people, especially solicitors who will say to me 'oh I see your name all the time on certificates'."Jennifer praised her colleagues at the City Hall saying they work together as a so long in the job, it will be difficult for her colleagues to properly mark her retirement after 36 years of public service.A piece of crystal? A large bouquet of flowers? Perhaps, they will present her with a certificate.
