    Happy Birthday Nadine. I wish everyone a happiest of birthday's and also, I believe that no matter what age we turn in 2023 that everyone should celebrate it in any way that they can and do it the best that they want to with friends and family. It should be celebrated in an awesome way.

    Thoughts on doing this cruise with twins? They will be about 2 years old. We would get a balcony cabin. Would the room be big enough? Is 7 days too long? We love the Oasis class ships and wonder has been on our radar. And the Eastern Caribbean ports are great for hanging out and walking around at Port.

    Question: what make the cruise price worth it?
    Explanaition: for example, a playground or a minigolf or yoga class in cruise.. what stops me from taking that money and paying for an inland minigolf park etc etc?
    This questions bothers my mind and gives me analisys paralisys.

    It's great that they cater to families with toddlers. Not sure all cruise ships do as much as that one though. That one is BIG. Is the sound between cabins pretty good so you don't have to worry about keeping the baby as quiet as possible? Haven't been on one yet and not sure what they use between cabins to keep the sound down.

    • @heynadine
      @heynadine  Pƙed 11 měsĂ­ci

      The sound proofing between cabins seems to be really good, or maybe we just had quiet neighbours. We never heard them at all. With the doors closed it was very quiet in the cabin 👍

    World’s largest ship. Doesn’t seem like a good fit for a toddler cause of all the walking and distance between things.

    • @heynadine
      @heynadine  Pƙed 2 měsĂ­ci

      actually, it was fine, it's not as much walking, and really, you're carrying your toddler half the time anywhere you go. As long as your not in any rush to get somewhere fast.

      Many people actually like being around their children. Try an adult only line if you don’t like seeing children.
