I have been reading and posting on this board since 2000 and I don't think that I have ever read any post that said it rained ALL week, maybe a day or two here and there but not the entire trip.

Upon boarding, go to the location listed in the Navigator and try and get your seating changed to early - don't get your hopes up but it does happen. You didn't say where you were from so if you are west cost and sailing out of Florida the time difference sort of takes some of the pressure off.

As far as surviving dinner, take my comments as suggestions and observations, nothing personal here. I guess the biggest thing is to be prepared - late dinner means 8:45 or so before you actually have a plate in front of you. Guess some depends on how regimented your children are - mine didn't know what schedule meant (still don't but they are 16, 22 & 24). How well your your children roll with the punches? Maybe you could work your way up to that at home changing your dinner hour a bit later each evening. I guess I would just be sure to talk with them before leaving and warn them what is going to happen. There is plenty to eat on the ship to get you through to dinner so that part isn't too much of an issue.

Good luck

Welcome to the DIS!

Can't help you with late seating because it doesn't work for us and we have kids.


However I can say that when we cruised this past December (18th - 28th) we only had one day that was cool and overcast. That was Castaway Cay day. I will say there was plenty going on inside as well as out to keep everyone busy and happy especially for the kids.

One other piece of advise. If you haven't already go find your cruise on the cruise meets board and meet your fellow DIS'ers - they can really make the cruise extra special!

There is so much to do that you won't have time to do it all. But I highly doubt you would find it raining all week. Maybe a brief shower, but other than that no problem mon'....
