Does anybody know what happened on the DisneyWonder yesterday, August 5, 2004, at the disembarkation?

The bomb sniffing dogs detected a bomb in the matresses that they where loading on the ship. It turned out to be nothing. The police officer said the pallet that the mattresses where on probably at one time had something on it that the dogs would confuse with a bomb. They kept whoever was on the ship on the ship and whoever was waiting at port where evacuated until everything was given the all clear.

Were you on that cruise? If I was stuck on the ship until the all-clear was given, I would have been really freaked out. Thanks for the info. Hopefully, there will be no such event on my cruise next week.
