Instead, the captain sailed us into Tracy Arm - a beautiful, protected place that I would have never seen. Detours are awesome, unexpected delights!

That was a bad year. I know. I used to manage a hotel in the Port Canaveral area. Not only did Port Canaveral get hit (which is REALLY unusual) but three times and at the end of hurricane season no less. Out of the 30+ hotels in the area, only 2 needed major repairs. Port Canaveral is the second busiest cruise port in the world, and hurricane season is factored into the local business plan to prevent the worst case problems you experienced. Local hotels are also well prepared, but you have to know the real Port Canaveral hotels from the false advertisers. Look at <a href="http://www.portcanaveralhotelsinsider.com/A_Unique_Guide_to_True_Port_Canaveral_Hotels.html" rel="nofollow">A Unique Guide to True Port Canaveral Hotels</a>. And there is no risk of getting stranded like you did in San Juan. There are three aiports close to Port Canaveral, which you can find at <a href="http://www.portcanaveralhotelsinsider.com/Central_Florida_Airports_Near_Port_Canaveral.html" rel="nofollow">Central Florida Airports Near Port Canaveral</a>.
