I am going on the 7 night cruise in April. I will be traveling with my husband and two children (ages 5 and 7). I would appreciate any tips anyone has to offer to make our experience the best it can be. Any help with excursions, dining, what to pack etc...
Thanks for your help.
 
The best advice I can give you is to just go into some of these trip reports and just read....see what people say they enjoyed and see what people say they wish they had or hadn't done.

Don't over-pack...that's a biggie...save the suitcase room for souvenirs. If you're a first time cruiser I highly suggest calling your doctor and getting the patch to put behind your ear just in case you get sea sick...my doctor never requires me to come in for a visit; he just calls in a prescription for me. It's a lot better than taking dramamine because that causes drowsiness. The only side effect I ever get is blurred vision when reading...no big deal!

Hope my advice helps. Good luck!!!
 
To get people to answer your question you should post it on the discussion forum threads, This thread is for people who post reports of their cruise experiences.
You will get many answers on that thread I'm sure,

I went on my first cruise in August. I was so worried about what to pack, so I packed seven outfits, shoes, bathing suits, and formal were. Next time I won't even pack half. You are in your bathing suit the entire time. I would just pack 4 outfits, a ton of bathing suits, and formal wear.
