I have never cruised myself and I am wondering if it is suitable for me and my son to go on a cruise.

He thinks he is going to lay in a chair all day read his books and eat 3 times a day!

I was thinking of doing an Atlantic crossing back to Europe or something in that sense.

Any suggestions? Appreciated!
My son loves cruises. He is 11. June, 2018 we will be taking him to another cruise (12 days) starting from your place, Amsterdam! If your son is like mine, he is not going to eat 3 times a day... it will be more like 6 or 7 times a day. I think he hit the buffet every 2/3 hours.

We have not been to any crossing cruise...I don't think we could handle too many sea days back to back. It is nice to break up the cruise with ports and excursion. Otherwise it would be easier to just stay at a seaside resort I think.
