Creator's Key Takeaways

It was absolutely fantastic. Just a terrific time. We had such a really magical and memorable experience for the week that we were there.

The second seating was simply too late for our family and specifically for our kids.

I would have brought our smallest, most lightweight umbrella stroller.

The coffee was very, very weak.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Request a change from second seating to first seating upon embarkation if you have young kids.
Bring a lightweight umbrella stroller for port days and ship navigation.
Plan for daily rest periods after lunch, especially with young children.
Consider using a social story to prepare children for the cruise experience.
Book a placeholder for a future cruise while on board for a discount.
