FIRST OFF TAKE ROYAL CARIBBEAN - THERE IS NOT DOWNSIDE AND YOU CAN'T GO WRONG.
DON'T WASTE TIME MESSING AROUND WITH TRYING TO BRING HEAVY WATER BOTTLES ON TEH SHIP - THE SHIP WATER IS EXCELLENT IN ADDITION THE LEMONDADE AND ICED TEA ETC...
Well the 7 night Royal Caribbean Cruise on Freedom of the Seas was just amazing. It was our first family cruise where we were all together. Absolutely perfect.
9304 Great Balcony - and you can get adjoining rooms if you have teen agers. also they make the couch in to a big bed - not just a pullout so 4 people could stay in one room. Book early or yours kids room will be across the hall vs a nice balcony adjoining room. Keep shades drawn when you are out to keep the room cooler... AC worked great and showers were surprising big enough.
