We went to the dock and caught the boat parade. I don't have a long lens, so I can't do justice to some of the boats in the parade, but here's a couple of photos from the dock of 2 boats that were dressed up nicely.
We participated in a boat parade back in NC with the Grampian in 2003. It was fun but very cold.
The Shuttle Launch was spectacular. Simply amazing. This time we went to the top of the Port Orange Bridge for an unobstucted view of the horizon. The whole southern sky lit up like it was daytime as the shuttle fired (but did not liftoff or come into view) for about 20 seconds. Then, the shuttle came into view and just streaked across the sky. It was easy to see the solid rocket boosters separate from the shuttle and begin falling toward earth. The shuttle continued on - looking like a star moving across the sky.
