This past may we went on the disney wonder for 3 days and while it was great and everyone had a great time, it ended up being very pricey since we had included coronado springs for 2 nights and a day at the park.
I ended up spending and charging up almost $700 for charges, because of course my husband cannot drink tap water, so we had to buy bottled water and each one was a little more than a dollar, then he wanted to buy the cooler with water and that was $25 for a cooler with 5 bottles of water, my daughter saw all the little girls dressed up so I had to get her a costume $98, my camera filled up so I had to get a memory stick $34, ..... so many little things added up,
gratuities alone were $304 for their recommended amount of what was to be given to the server, assistant server, head server and then each person in our state room was automaticaly charged gratuities.
This year I will probably take my own bottled water, go to walmart and get costumes for my little girl, and make sure my camera memory is empty, and then just relax and enjoy.
oh by the way, I got the inside state room instead of the room with balcony, this past may I got the room with the balcony because it was the only room available. Now I know better.
