We are going on the 7 Night western cruise.
We booked 2 connecting navigator cabins. Are these big enough rooms for a family of 6? We plan to have the four kids in one and Mom and Dad in another.
Another concern - most of the "cool" activities are for ages 5 and up. The youngest turns 5 the week after we get back. Are there enough fun things to do in the port cities without doing the 'excursions' or is this unsafe? Would it be cruel to go on a 2 hour excursion without the 4 year old? Do the shipboard sitters watch the kids if the parents aren't on board? I don't feel comfortable doing that but I'm just asking.
I have only been on a boat once - when I sailed from Spain to Tangier, Morocco. I was feeling mighty sick during this trip. It was just a few hours (if that) and that has me concerned. Do many people get sick on the ship? A week is a mighty long time to feel that sick.
Thanks for your help and I'm excited!!!!!!!!!!! This will be the kids first trip "abroad."
