in First Time Cruisers

All these tips are great! We're about to book a 4-night western out of Miami on Carnival for our honeymoon in June! I've been on the Disney Wonder once, but hubby-to-be has never been on a cruise. On that cruise, I honestly had no idea what we were doing and just went with the flow of the ship (literally) and took it all it. I had a FANTASTIC time and learned that yes - in the dead of winter when it's only 75 or so outside, you CAN get a wicked, wicked sunburn in the caribbean. Ex-BF learned that the hard way.
My personal tip.. I didn't bring any actual shoes! The guys can't really do this, but the only shoes I packed were flip-flops and a dressy pair of sandals for the "formal" night. It was 70-80 the whole trip - who needs shoes?
(Though, I live in flip-flops when I've not working, so I don't recommend this for those who are prone to blisters or that never wear sandals.)
