Hi!! We'll be on the cruise with ya!! Doing a b2b with 3/21. Very excited!!

 

[kristie03]

Thanks for adding us!

Hi Disneybaby! This will be our first time on the Wonder, my DS is on a mission to do all the ships.....i am on a mission to do a B2B....this cruise will complete my son's goal

 

[leahmichl]

Just changed our dummy dates to this cruise! That's Spring Break for us, and another family of friends is joining us. So excited to be cruising Disney with friends! Between the 2 families we'll have 2 six-year-olds and 2 four-year-olds.

Is anyone interested in doing a Fish Extender exchange?

 

[jenthron]

We'll be on this cruise as well and are definitely interested in doing the fish exchange!

 

[kristie03]

Spring break for us too!! My kiddos will be DD12 and DS8 then....it seems like a far way away!

I'll be doing the FE as well Anyone interested in being the organizer?

Okay, so I had a 7 day cruise planned on the Fantasy next March when I realized DH's fantasy baseball draft will occur on one of the Saturdays we board the ship, so no spring break cruise in 2013 ... until I found this 5 day which is totally doable!

However, I haven't said anything to the family yet. Right now, they think we'll just go to the beach and we'll have to wait until 2014 for another DCL cruise. I'm going to see how long I can keep it a surprise from them.

We'll be a yes for the FE! Unfortunately, I'll be taking classes to finish my Masters ths year or I would totally organize the FE.

And if anyone has the inside scoop on the port of Miami, transfers, and hotels the night before, please post!

Thanks, Elizabeth

Added ourselves to the Extender List --

Excited for this trip. Moved it from the Fantasy Thanksgiving cruise this Fall. Will be our first time on the Wonder and this itinerary.

 

[leahmichl]

Yay! So excited so many people are already interested in the FE! I started a Google Doc, in case that's easier for anyone. This really helped us on the last FE to know how many, what ages, what genders, etc.

Our party has grown to FOUR families - a total of 4 6-year-olds and 3 4-year-olds. The kids are already talking about it non-stop and have no concept of what "11 months away" means =D

 

[leahmichl]

We'll be a yes for the FE!

I saw the FE gifts you made for the last cruise, which means 2 things - I can't steal your idea for this cruise, and I better bring my A game with creativity SO cute!!!

Thank you so much for creating a printable doc. I'll keep the main page up to date for the new comers and readers. Maybe some one will organize a Dis meet before we set sail! It's not like we don't have enough time to plan. Hahaha...

Had to go find this and all I can say is WOW! Looks like A+ to me. Thank goodness we have time to brainstorm our ideas! LOVE creativeness!

 

[leahmichl]

I made a Facebook group for the cruise, if anyone would like to join to post pictures, links, anything

Wow! Thank you Jamie and Leah for the very nice complements. I love participating in the FE exchanges. And I'll be honest that I have no idea what I'll be making yet for this cruise . It will depend on the number of participants and the break down of the number of kids and families, etc.

Hi! Please add us to the list of cruisers. We will be a party of 3: myself (Bob), DW (Deb) and DS14 (Bryce). Our oldest, DD21 won't be able to join us unfortunately.

Like others, this is spring break for DS. Hopefully that means a good # of young teens to keep him busy while DW and I hang out at Cove Cafe. This will be our 4th DCL cruise, 2nd time on the Wonder.

Not sure if we're going to participate in FE or not -- arts and crafts aren't a strong suit in our house. I'll see if I can talk DW into doing something however.
