Gangway Damage

During our cruise last week I had heard that the strong storm that hit us in Key West causing us to leave early had caused some damage at the Disney Terminal back in Port Canaveral so when we returned we saw for ourself just how bad it was.
The storm had ripped the metal gangway completely off of the rest of the walkway onto the ship.
So when we departed Saturday morning instead of going through the atrium and into the terminal and downstairs to get our luggage we departed via Deck 1 Aft and Forward and just walked from the pier directly into the luggage area.
Was told it would take 6-8 weeks to repair the damage so anyone going on a cruise for a while will be entering the ship by Deck 1 and not through the Atrium as usual. Don't know how Disney will do the welcome aboard for each family like normal but I'm sure they will find someway to make things Magical still.
