Anyone else on the Aug. 22, 3 day cruise?

Hi All - I looked through all 8 pages before posting this, but it looks like the majority of y'all are going on a 7 day cruise...

My DH and I are going on the three day cruise 'cause 1) we've never been on ANY cruise before and 2) my husband isn't a huge water person (he's turned green on small boats...)

We're actually doing the Land/Sea trip backwards, because if (God forbid) DH DOES get sick, I want extra time to relax before heading home. Our 5th wedding anniversary is 8/23, so we're "doin' it up right" and also staying at the Grand Floridian on our second leg of the trip.

Can anyone recommend tips/excursions, etc for the trip? We booked the Discover Atlantis excursion. What do you do while on the ship? Also, will suit and tie be ok for dinner? (I'm already having a hard time convincing DH that he'll need to pack that anyway, for when we go to Victoria & Alberts at WDW.

Sorry for the long post - I'm glad I found this site, though!

DH and I will also be celebrating our anniversary on the 8/22 cruise! This is our second Disney cruise, the first was a 3 day in May 2001 for my 40th b'day. Our DDs (15 & almost 17) will be coming with us this time.

I can sympathize with your DH. I get carsick going around the block! Taking a Dramamine (no or less drowsy formula - can't remember which it was called) first thing every morning worked great for me. I still couldn't look out at the water while the ship was moving, but I didn't feel sick at all.

Have a great time!
