First time at Sea!

[Tigger UK]

Hello

We are going on our first cruise in August (the 7-day Western). Does anyone have any advice they can give us? We have an 11 year old daughter.

What does anyone think of the dolphin experience in Cozamel?

Can anyone recommend any of the excursions on Castaway Cay?

Kind regards

Use the search pages to find many answers...

Here is the link:

http://www.disboards.com/search.php?s=

Note that the search engine is diabled automatically during peak usage times (it is a CPU hog on the server), so the best time to do searches is in the morning, and late evenings.

Just about every conceivable question has probably been answered on this board - If you can find it !

Best advice though, and it will be well worth your time and money, is to buy the Passporter to DCL. You can still get it for $10.67 at Buy.com with FREE shipping. If your time is worth even $1 an hour, you will save $hundreds reading it over doing searches and reading the online Boards looking for your answers. Not that I discourage using the boards (I enjoy reading them and asking questions occasionally), but the Passporter is a good read and a great reference.

Tigger UK.....Which Western cruise will you be on? We will be sailing on the August 16th western cruise. I have an 11 yr old son. Maybe they can "hang out".

I haven't personally been on the Dolphin Encounter (yet!) Our cruise is scheduled for Jan 2004...but a woman I work with did this excursion and said it was worth every penny...her only regret was that she didnt get the video of her time with the dolphins. She showed me pictures-you get up close and personal! They were adorable!!!
