More than 4,000 passengers and crew have been stuck on a cruise ship since an engine room fire cut power and left the ship listing four days ago.

Passengers have confirmed uncomfortable conditions aboard the Carnival Triumph, saying urine and feces streamed in the halls and down walls after toilet facilities failed. The smells from waste and spoiling food, as well as a lack of air conditioning, have made it a trip to remember.

As the ship is slowly pulled to a dock in Mobile, Alabama, frustrated passengers are sharing their thoughts and stories on social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
