This cruise was with 2 adults with 11yr old and 6 yr old boys + my parents. This was the first time on a Princess Cruise.
Embarkation: We stayed at the Best Western Oceanside Inn, in Ft Lauderdale. We took a Taxis to the port around noon. Once at the port, we were on the ship in less than 30 mins.
Kids Camp: Both of our sons went to camp on the ship. The ship said there were 800 kids (0-17) It did not seem like it. The Kid Camps were very up to date with technology. Both of my kids wanted to go to camp. That tells me that it was fun for them, and they were having a good time.
