  "account": "Dwight and Sheila Greene, a couple from Fort Worth, Texas, have been living aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey, a residential cruise ship, for over a year. When the ship abruptly halted operations in Cambodia last week, they left most of their belongings on board. Now, the Greeses are on another cruise, waiting to see what happens to the Odyssey.\n\nThe Villa Vie Odyssey didn't feel like any other cruise the Greeses had been on. What really drew them in was the people. Unlike other cruises where they felt invisible, on the Odyssey, people would greet them warmly and introduce themselves. They quickly made friends and enjoyed dining with different people each night.\n\nWhile they enjoyed their time on the ship, the Greeses knew they couldn't stay indefinitely. The ship was facing fuel issues and several ports were being dropped from its itinerary. By the time the ship halted operations in Cambodia, the Greeses had already disembarked to explore other parts of Cambodia and then met the ship again in Thailand to pick up some belongings.\n\nNow, the Greeses are on another cruise, waiting to see what will happen with the Odyssey. They had planned to hop back on board if the ship was in Singapore when they arrived in mid-November. For now, they are simply waiting to find out the outcome.",
