My family of 6 is seriously considering a 7 night Mediterranean this summer. This would be our 4th DCL (one Dream double dip, one Dream that never made it to Castaway Cay, and a Puerto Rico reposition last year). We are Florida residents, and while our beach isn't St. Thomas, we can go any time we want (DH runs on the beach each morning). We love the shows on DCL, feel its the best line for our family at this stage in the game, but are not interested in doing another Caribbean. I am hoping this can be a good introduction to Europe (kills me that I have to do Rome in 10 hours!).
I'm hoping someone can compare/contrast Caribbean and Mediterranean experiences. Any thoughts on things I should consider? We would be mostly booking excursions on our own and will add some time in Paris and surrounding areas after.
I'd love any advice you can give! Kids will be 17,10, 10 and 7 for the summer. They're good travelers, but I've only subjected the oldest to international flights and her last one was prior to the twins (love them, but they put the kibosh on international travel!).
