Aww thanks for this. My kids will be 14, 10 and 4. My 14yo will definitely choose Vibe over Edge (I think there is crossover .. . . ).
Mine is a 4 night cruise so I'm hoping the extra day will give us a better experience and feel for cruising. I'm basically not booking anything on board nor am I booking an excursions.
Frankly, I just want to sit and read my book as much as possible and maybe go to a show or two. And drink some cocktails.
Yes, I am definitely bracing myself for feeling cramped - even with two rooms! This is another reason for limiting it to 4 nights! But since we are going into it knowing this is just a part of cruising then I think it should be OK.
We have been to the parks enough that we know the dangers of trying to fit everything in. And how for us, that can really put a damper on a vacation.
We've met all the characters in the parks a bazillion times including Anna and Elsa. My 4yo will want to meet Minnie or a Princess if it works out so I might try and secure Princess M&G tix. Otherwise we will just wing everything like we do in the Parks - if we see a character with no line we will stop. We are Disneyland vets and so we are used to totally winging it and not stressing.
Mainly we are going on a voyage and that is the main event. That and finally seeing Castaway Cay!
Castaway Cay was really the highlight of the cruise. I was able to sit in a chair with a fantastic drink.. kids swam... we rented float tubes and floated around. We all rented bikes to explore the island.. Even though i never felt crowded with the fantasy , i look forward to being their with 1/2 the people while on the magic.
