We just disembarked the Disney Magic this morning. For a little background, this was my 11th cruise and DH's 7th or 8th (ish, not sure.) It was our first experience cruising with our baby, who is 8 months old. I have a lot to say (for anyone who might be interested), some good, some less than stellar.

Smooth! We arrived 30 m scheduled to our boarding time to allow DH time to take the car to Park N Cruise (no sense taking all our luggage and a stroller on the shuttle so I just sat on a bench with the baby.)
