Rough seas caused minor injuries and some damage to Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Seas over the weekend. A winter storm sent 30 foot waves against the cruise ship and caused some minor problems.
The ship rolled violently as the storm's huge waves crashed into the hull, throwing furniture, passengers and the ship's christmas tree around and breaking some interior glass.
The Brilliance of the Seas was supposed to be on a 12 day cruise that took it from Spain to Italy, then on to Greece, and finally Egypt. Due to the storm, Brilliance will now head back toward Malta.
