Traveled with children

I will say my husband and I look for the value in our vacations.

Heck with five kids you have to these days.

I will start with the negatives since that is what is foremost in my mind. I didn't think Disney was a good value for one specific reason. The food. The food was not that great. Sure they had the standard kid fare that my boys enjoyed. But the adult meals were mediocre. They tried to make things look "gourmet" but they tasted bland. I will say most of the soups and salads served were tasty. I do understand it is a great feat to feed so many people on the ship. But I honestly expected better food. Also, while I like the idea of the wait staff rotating with you every night to the different restaurants...you would think that service would improve as they got to know you. They understood that I had an iced tea with dinner every night...but every night I would have to ask for sweetener three times till they brought it. It was a simple attention to detail thing and did honestly get a little annoying. We tipped everyone what Disney recommended at the last nights dinner. For everyone this was over $650. When we arrived at breakfast that next morning our wait staff's entire demeanor had changed. They were less attentive. We had to ask multiple times for things. Brought duplicate drinks or the wrong drinks. I wonder if it was a simple case of "I got my tip so I am done being nice" or "I wanted more of a tip". I can only hope they were upset that another table didn't tip them and that was carrying over to us. But it was disappointing that have the be the end impression of our trip.
