Must do #1 - Remember it's a vacation, don't try to do "everything". In reality you can't, and you'll just stress yourself out trying to.

i couldn't agree more. we are doing cruise #2 and i already feel the pressure to try to enjoy it all. Trying to prepare myself to just go slow.

i put a guide together for our 1st disney cruise- it was on the wonder in alaska - but as some general tips. explains dining etc and a lot of things for 1st time cruisers. here is a link to the guide - https://www.dropbox.com/s/rlze60xx5cqu4f5/Info for Alaska Cruise Disney Wonder share.doc?dl=0

if you prefer me to send it as an attachment - send me a pm with your email. i can't get it to upload here.

Must dos? Plan a few events each day that are MUST DO activities. Then sprinkle in some other things if you feel so inclined. Cruises are meant to be flexible and fun, at least in my opinion.

As pp said just try to relax and enjoy. Try to also be flexible and do not stick to just one particular schedule.

Arrive early to the shows if you want good seats and you have little ones so they can enjoy the show to the max. Be on time for your dining assignment. Often if you are a family of 4 or less you get to share your table with other guests and servers usually won't serve the table until everyone is at the table.

Enjoy your cruise and like I said HAVE FUN!!!
