I thought only disney had fireworks, they steal the ideas no?

.....Thats what I thought too.

I am back on the 5th of January so maybe this has been answered, but we were told on the ship by the Cruise Director or the Captain or someone in the know that Disney wrote the book on fireworks for cruise lines.

When they wanted to do it and inquired as to safety requirements and how to obtain authorization, there was nothing there. No one had even thought of it before. So the Maritime authorities (whoever that is) told them to write a proposal and it would be considered.

They did such a good job that not only did they get permission to entertain us with fireworks, Disney's safety standards are now THE standard.

Where is this?

Oops, sorry I should have said. It's in the terminal in Port Canaveral. It's where we purchased upgrades.

Cool....
I like the little known pictures like this.

When someone zeros in on something you would "normally" not take a picture of.

Cool

This picture reminded me of a question I had.... what time does the ship pull into Castaway Cay on the first morning? I was just thinking about how short of a trip it was between Port Canaveral and Castaway...do they sail slower and stretch it out? Take the long route?

I don't think anyone answered this. You almost always go to Castaway Cay the last day of the cruise. That gives them the short cut back to Port Canaveral to unload luggage and start getting ready for the next cruise while you are still sleeping and then eating breakfast.

Ship pulls into CC about 8 or 8:30 I think. Seems like disembarkation at Castaway Cay was about 9. You get back on by 4:30 so the ship is pulling out at 5 because there are mosquitos the size of buzzards which come out at 5. Well, maybe not, but they say that the bugs are BAD!

?? Anyone know for sure?

I'm the original poster and I was on a double dip, so we did pull into CC the very next morning after leaving PC. I'm wondering what time we got there since it is such a short distance?
