Traveled with children

This was our second cruise - first cruise with kids. We traveled with a group of 18 (4 families). We left from Tampa and were told to embark at 1:30pm, we showed up at 10:30am just to check things out and the line was already forming so we went ahead and started the process. We were on the boat by 11:30 and had the kids swimsuits in hand so they popped right into the pool. Staterooms were to be ready at 1:30pm so anything we had with us we had to walk around with. My first advice would be to CHECK EVERYTHING except the swimsuits.

The pool area was hot, but if you go up to Deck 11 and sit in front of the oversized chess board there is a breeze coming from the upper decks - the perfect spot to claim and it is covered! This is also the deck you need to be on if you want to see your kids in the pool, the pool has tall walls around it and you can only watch your kids if you are standing up. We would get the kids in the water and go up the steps so we could see them swimming.

The lunch was being served as we boarded so the kids swam and we ate and just had a nice relaxation period before having to unpack. The rooms were ready at 1:30 as stated and the luggage started arriving very quickly. We got all but our largest bag right away.
