Port Canaveral, Florida. 10 images best viewed as originals.

After Hurricane Sandy passed to the east of Florida, the winds stopped and the sun came out.  We decided to have lunch at Port Canaveral and watch the huge cruise ships leave the port.  Here are some random shots taken with my ZS3.

The big Disney Dream cruise ship.

Here is the ship's bridge.

Mickey Mouse symbol on one of the stacks.

This is the stern of the ship.  Look closely and you can see Mickey hanging off the rear wearing the sorcerer's apprentice hat that he wore in the old movie, Fantasia.

Two more cruise ships waiting their turn to leave.

Closer view of the Carnival Dream.

The other end of the spectrum - a small shrimp boat.

Capt. Milliken has a very colorful boat.

These are the shrimping nets.

Besides the cruise industry, the port also has a commercial industry.  Big barges bring in cement and unload at this cement storage facility.
