We're a little concerned (I wouldn't say nervous) about the number of children Disney cruises are known for, as we're not really kid-oriented - just not our thing. Posters on other threads assure us that the program is so good that the number of children are not noticeable. We hope so. May spend a lot of time around the adult pool.... We're hoping that it's going to be great, as we're already booked on the October DVC Members cruise!
I must say that we just spent New Years Eve with a couple we met at an FOD gathering on a Norwegian Mexican Riviera cruise. Never thought we'd meet anyone who would be more than just someone to hang around with while on the ship.

LukenDC said:On the DCL, do you have to share a table with other guests? I worry that if I take a cruise with my bf that we will get assigned to a table with unfriendly people.
mickeyfan1 said:Second, keep checking in on the Cruise Meets boards and see who may be on your cruise. Chat with them ahead of time and you may have table mates before you go.
mickeyfan1 said:I know there were a lot of gays, both men and women on the August repo cruise. None of those with whom I hung out had anything even remotely rude happen. And from reading a lot of these post, those with whom I had no chance to talk, (Hi Nordkin!) they seem to be reporting no problems either.
