Our kids were 16 and 12 on our
Disney Cruise. It was our second cruise, the first on HAL. We discovered that we really liked being with our kids 24/7 for a week. We slept in, had a leisurely breakfast, then some shuffle board, a little basketball, Disney trivia , lunch a movie, watching the sea go by, show, music trivia, back to the cabin for showers, then late seating dinner. A very leisurely dinner, usually lasted close to 2 hours. Our son was into magic, and did tricks after dinner, with the servers trying to top his tricks. By the second day we had a crowd around our table watching. Then we did star gazing in front of the windscreen on the bow until about midnight. Kids were disappointed that Disney didn't have the nightly midnight buffet like our HAL cruise had. They really enjoyed the carving stations and desserts at 1 am! But we got a snack and there was the Dessert buffet one night, and that worked..
