Taking 3 kids(13,10,7). Haven't booked yet. Looking to do Disney World week prior to cruise. Any info on Ships or itinerary would be great. This will be kids 2nd and our 6th cruise.

Jim/Kim,

My recommendations would be the 7 Night Legend out of Tampa (Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Belize, Roatan) or the 5 Night Inspiration from Tampa (Grand Cayman, Cozumel).

The Legend is a sister ship to the Spirit we did in Hawaii - Remember how much fun we had that night in the disco - when Mark's wife came down in her jammies to find him!!!

The Inspiration is my favorite ship for cruises less than 7 nights. She's been completely refurbed and the crew is amazing! It also has the new Waterworks park for kids.

Just let me know when you will be in town so we can get together!

Just be prepared for VERY hot weather in Disney and The Carib in August. Been there and said I wouldn't go again in July or August due to heat!

Best,

Thanks for the info. I would have liked to go eariler but can't due to Little League. Everything scheduled around the kids. Think we're going to pass on Disney.
