Originally Posted By Castaway 3 So...anyone get back yet? We are leaving 7/7/07, 11 day Disney Cruise. All our excursions are booked. (We got the DVD which helped, but with a 13 year old - we didn't want to do a 10 hr "whine-fest") -nor could we do a real wine-fest so we chose accordingly the best we could. Keep in touch you sailors!
