Attention step When taking a cruise between Los Angeles , California and Honolulu, Hawaii you may be surprised to find the captain will tell you at some point of your lovely trip that you must go into your cabin and don’t come out without the captains verbal permission. You go back to your cabin and you find your stomach has the munchies and you want to order room service only to find that it’s not available. That’s when you smell it the stench; it carries for miles outward from its source the “great” Pacific Ocean garbage patch.
