We had a wonderful time. We stayed on sunrise at the Doubletree with a balcony overlooking parade route.. The boats and light and music were very special. Our handicapped daughter wanted to know how we get on a boat next year.

Not a lot of boats probably because of bad weather. It was just after rain, very cold and windy
