Big Ship Finally Free in Suez Canal

Last week the ship Ever Given got hung up on the banks of the Suez Canal. It’s as long as the Empire State building is tall and weighs over 200,000 tons. That’s a lot of ship. The biggest problem is other ships couldn’t get by because it was stuck diagonal across the entire canal. Shipping was backed up and that meant ships either wait or they go all the way around the southern tip of Africa adding weeks on and additional coats. Yesterday it seems they got the ship freed up finally!
