We are a family of 4 & booked a 4K obstructed view stateroom on the Pride out of Baltimore for Thanksgiving week. This will be our 5th cruise,first Carnival & first with the kids. (4 Celebrity & 1 RCL ) We have stayed in inside,outside & balcony cabins. I'm a little unsure about looking out at the side of a life boat. We were thinking about upgrading to a ocean suite. So i guess I have two questions. How is Carnival with 2 kids (7&9) and should I upgrade to the larger cabin? Thanks.
