4th of July?

This will be our first cruise during the 4th. Will the ships or ports do anything special on that day?

We are also sailing over July 4th and this is what I found on the Carnival website:

We've sailed over July 4 seven times. They've had more activities in recent years - trivia games, special photos, and deck parties. As for ports - three times we've been in current or former British territories. No the ports did not observe the holiday for us. However, we've found some very good-natured ribbing in those ports.:p
