We're first time cruisers and will be joining you on 10/6!!!! We're SO EXCITED. I read this board daily to find tips on what to bring, do, etc., etc. We'll be spending a week at Disney World before the cruise, and then are taking one additional night (probably at Cocoa Beach) when we get back from the cruise -- before we have to return to the world of reality. We're both in our early 50's and have no children but love MICKEY MOUSE (in fact, we collect antique Mickey toys and watches).
