We are going on our first Disney Cruise in less than a month. (We WON the cruise through a local radio station). Any tips and suggestions for making it smooth sailing for us? We have a 6 year old boy and a 23 month old daughter.
Thanks
Dave gave some great advice! Agreeing on all fronts, especially about packing a carry on with bathing suits. You'll be able to drop off your stuff, but your luggage is rarely there right away (I was lucky last time, but I think it's because my luggage was 'real tree' camp and they were afraid I'd go all baraco on them if I didn't have it! Haha).
Also, the kids clubs will be great for your 6 year old. There is so much to do! The first time we cruised my sister was 6, and she absolutely loved it. You make a lot of friends (I was 10, so I too participated in one of the clubs) and there are specific activities.
I'd also suggest bringing hats for the kids, and a fairly light cover up for Castaway Cay. It's hot. And it can get dangerous pretty quick being out in that kind of sun, even if you're smart. The more coverage, the better!
And eat as much as possible, that goes without saying!
Where did you find RealTree luggage ? Is it decent ?
Anybody use the child care for the little ones? I'm looking for some tips, suggestions, etc on that part of the ship. My son is excited about the camp for him, but I know I'd like to put my daughter(23 months) in the camp for some times so we can have mommy&daddy time.
Thanks again!
Pretty sure Dad picked it up at Bass Pro on one of our trips. We have a full sized duffel and the littler one. This is the only picture I have, but it's sickk.. Got some stellar looks in Toronto. The encounter went something like:
Man staring at my luggage.
Me: It's my Dad's.
Man: Clearly.
