This is our first cruise with DCL and our first cruise with kids. This time our family is receiving this cruise for Christmas from myself and DH (Mickey is scheduled to call at 8am Christmas morning) Our kids are DS17 & DS9. We sail out 2/11 on the Wonder from Miami after making a 12 hr drive from Mobile AL. Any suggestions on any of the following:
1. How much ship credit should I initially put up? We are visit WDW every other year so have a lot of souvenirs but I know these are different and I'm a photoholic.
2. What's the "rules" on bringing alcohol (beer) onboard and the rules of bottle water?
3. How early should we be at the port to try to "beat the crowd" and any pointers at the terminal?
4. And any tips at all would be great!!
5. Oh and anything special done for valentines day? And we will celebrate our 16th anniversary on the ship also.
Thanks in advance!
