Of course not! Trust me - you will definitely NOT be the only single parent on the cruise. I had the same feelings the second time we cruised Disney, because just dh and I went. I worried that we'd feel out of place because we didn't have any kids. WRONG - we had a fantastic time and met lots of kidless couples. Remember - a lot of single dads take their kids on cruises because of the great child care, etc. So - who knows?

As for the length - if this is your first cruise, I'd opt for the 4 day - just to get your "sea legs" so to speak. 3 isn't long enough and a week may be too long if you find you're not a "cruise" person.
