Hi, we are so excited to take our first cruise! My son is five and way more excited for this trip than when we went to Disneyland last year. Looking forward to learning about fish extenders, etc.

We are excited to be joining the March 23rd Magic Cruise with my boys (7,7,10)!

We are excited to go on this cruise also. This will be our first Disney cruise. I have a 14 year old son and a 10 year old daughter. How do we find out about doing fish extenders?

Citygirl912 · 01-09-2013, 06:45 PM

So exciting to see a lot of the posts! It looks like a lot of us are new here! How do we get a group organized for a fish extender exchange? I'm happy to take the lead and help organize but really don't know what to do since it is my first time.

Any advice?

New to this thread. This will be our 5th cruise but first out of Galveston. Has anyone looked at transportation from IAH? There doesn't seem to be a lot of options. I found only one car rental in Galveston. I'm contemplating renting a car for a full week and parking it at a hotel before the cruise.

My husband and I will be on this cruise. It is our 7th cruise. Fish extenders are an exchange that people take part in and place door hangers on their doors. As we have more posts we will need someone to gather the information of who wants to participate and their state room numbers. Then a week before we sail send out the final tally so people can do their final preparations for the gifts, souveneirs or items to exchange. We have received a variety of items from homemade gifts to unique souveneirs. It is great fun. Then during the cruise each person has their list and we sneak around and place our gifts into the door hangers. It is quite fun. I will be glad to compile the list and I will check in often. We will need to find out how many want to participate. Then later next month February we will choose a cut off date. So here it is. Who wants to participate in fish extenders let me know. I need to know how many adults male/female how many children male/female and ages. Also if you know your stateroom number that is helpful but you can give me that info as we get closer to sailing. Who is up for fish extenders?????

We used Disney transportation. I know it seems pricey but cosidering it will get us to the port you might want to call them.

You are in for a real treat! You want to get your excursions booked as soon as your window opens which should be open by now. Also you want to treat yourself for a meal at Palo restaurant which you want to book reservations early also. Book now for brunch or dinner for you and your wife. You do not have to worry about the boys there is room service and they will be busy on their own decks of entertainment secure with electronic devices which you will know where they are at all times. I also would recommend getting sea sick patches from your MD in case of weather, It makes the trip much more enjoyable not worrying about anyone getting the tummy upsets on their first time at sea. Just some helpful tips that we didnt learn until our second and third cruise. Palo is superb and worth extra money.
