After a week of misery, the end is finally in sight for passengers aboard the nightmare Carnival cruise ship as the vessel makes the last leg of its journey in to port today.


The ship's 3,143 passengers and 1,086 crew members have been stuck on the Carnival Cruise Lines’ 'Triumph' in the Gulf of Mexico since Sunday after a fire in the engine room crippled the power system.


Passengers reported how the four day luxury cruise then turned into a nightmare as carpets became soaked in urine and scare food supplies left them with nothing to eat but cold sandwiches.
