Just found out that my SIL/BIL and their DS, 1, will be joining us!
Hopefully there are others going too...if not, guess we'll have the whole ship to ourselves! ; )
Would love to hear from fellow cruisers...

Hi Everyone!

We booked our cruise a few months ago, but I just found out about this forum! Im so excited to get to know some people before we leave.

we are leaving out of Miami on 2/26/16. I will be crusing with my DH, and our DD's 3&6 at the time of cruise. They don't know about the cruise yet, since its their Christmas present. This will be their first ever vacation, my first ever cruise.

Hello Everyone, I just booked this cruise for our family (myself, hubby and 12yo son and 7 yo daughter), but they won't find out until Christmas! This will be our third Disney Cruise. We did a 3 day bahamian cruise in 2014 and a 7 day eastern caribbean cruise this past February/March. We will be staying on Miami Beach the days leading up to the cruise. Look forward to cruising with you all!

Good morning! We are so excited to be cruising again with Disney. This will be our 5th disney cruise and second on the Wonder 02/26/16. Can't wait! We've never done the FE, but think my kids (10, 7, 5) will love it. Does anyone have any information on where I can sign up? Thanks so much for starting this great group!!

Hi! First time cruisers here! It will be me, H and DS who is 4, but we're celebrating his 5th birthday while we're on the cruise.
Is there another place where everyone is learning more about FE or stuff on this particular cruise?

Hello from chilly Wisconsin! We are joining you all on this cruise, it will be our 4th. It is me, H, and DD (9). In our neighboring cabin will be our friends and their DD (8), my DD's best friend. Our last cruise in January 2015 was not a good one for my DD, who was sick, not from the ship but a bug she caught on land. We wanted to give her another chance to see what a Disney cruise is all about.

I have been reading quite a few things about how a Fish Extender works, and I don't see that there is anything organized for our particular cruise. So I have been hemming and hawing about organizing something, I've NOT done this before, so here goes. As you know, we don't have a lot of time before our cruise so something would have to be put together pretty quickly. My initial thought is to do it with gifts for the kids only, starting with an age where the kids would understand what they are participating in and be able to appreciate the gifts. Not sure what age that would be? I was thinking of limiting the number of kids to say maybe 20ish because of the limited amount of time left before the cruise and so that each family doesn't have to bring too many gifts. Then I could assign days for each stateroom to deliver their gifts, i.e. 3 or 4 staterooms would be assigned to deliver their gifts for each day of the cruise starting with the sail date up through the day before disembarking. That way each kid would receive a few gifts each day.

Again, I have not done this before so I am open for suggestions!!! If you have any suggestions or are interested, please post another message on this thread with the number of kids that would like to participate. I would like to get a list finalized by January 15, so I'll see where we are at once that date approaches to see if it's feasible to go ahead with organizing the FE.

Thanks!

Donna
