Ok, I have been on vacation to all of the destinations, so I feel I can shed some experience to your decision making.
Caribean cruises are always fun and I think that's the one I will choose. I assume it will be a short cruise like 3-5 days since it's just level 2. Maybe it will be a cheaper cruise line like Carnival.
Washington DC will be a great one to take kids to. You could spend over a week in the Smithsonian alone! Plus there's all the capital buildings, the constitution, the mint. This will be very educational for the family with kids on their own two feet.
London is fun to see the crown jewels if you love diamonds the way I do, I didn't find it nearly as exciting as shopping the diamond district in New York, though! There's seeing the palace and the changing of the guards. London is home to the original Hard Rock Cafe, so if you're a collector, don't miss your Tshirt. The town car drivers didn't understand why I wanted to try fish n chips, I don't think Londoners know that's what London is known for. I assume since it's Level 3 & 4, the hotel will be somewhere like the Savoy. I stayed there and it was very luxurious, be sure to have afternoon tea downstairs off of the lobby. I hope it's in the dead of summer, I went in July and it was still very dreary and chilly. Also, everything you'll need on your own, from meals that aren't included to a trip to the drugstore is very expensive in London. Be sure to save if this is the trip you want to go on. I'm not usually a shopper, but I think that was the highlight of London- they I was so impressed that in New York they'll hand over a $100,000.00 necklace for any schmo to try on, in London the Rolex's and jewerly in the windows far outweighs New York. They have Rolex's in their windows with price tags well over $100,000.00!!
