Hi guys! Emma will be along shortly to reply to your kind messages. From Mom and Dad, one request ... for the FE, we'd like to be one of the first few days. One of our items may be helpful to others while on the ship.

On the Matzatlan debacle, I'm sure Disney is making the right decision for our safety. That said, it is/was one of our favorite ports. In PV, you literally dock next to a Walmart. In Cabo, you tender in to a nice area, but the beach is small and loaded with folks trying to sell you stuff (constantly). For what it's worth, for those considering a "beach adventure" in Cabo, I'd just jump in a cab from the port and you can be there in about 5 minutes, maybe a bit more with traffic. The hotels/restaurants have the reserved seating for patrons, so order an occasion beer and/or lunch and you'll be fine for the day. Much cheaper than doing the one through Disney.

Want to be added?? Please let us know! Thanks!

So, am I right in concluding there are 27 people on the fish extender? Or is it kids only?

Thanks so much!

 

[merrygirl]

Hi Emma,

My daughter Rebecca is 9 years old and the last Disney cruise we went on she almost never left the Kid's Club. We live in Phoenix and she loves making new friends.

We are considering booking this cruise, if we do, we would also be interested in the FE, if it is not too late. (We should know by the end of next week). It would be DW and I.

Hi everyone!!

I was thinking we might start to toss around ideas on a group get-together. I've seen other posts where Dis-Meets occur at 3:00pm on the day of sailing at the Promanade Lounge.

Others mention meeting at the pool, but can be loud and other people will likely be there, too.

Others have met up the after breakfast on the second day.

The main purpose is to meet each other!! Say hi!! Take pictures!!

The second would be to confirm any last minute changes for our Fish Extender Exchange participants (cabins, etc) and confirm the day families are scheduled to deliver Disney magic. (DisneyHonu has been keeping track of this information).

We'll have to go with the majority on this. I don't want to impose on everyone's family time, but I so look forward to meeting everyone!!

Send me a private message if you like, or go ahead and post your thoughts/suggestions here!

58 days everyone!!!! Just 58 days to go!

Curious to know if anyone from our group is going to visit Disneyland before or after the cruise.

We have annual passes and go often. If others are planning to go, perhaps we can have a mini Dis-meet there, too!

Good luck!! I would suggest diamonds to entice DW but then there might not be money for the cruise.

Hmm.....might work.....we would be using DVC points (that due to borrowing and modifying trips, we have to use during that use year)....hopefully we can still do so at this late in the game.....I need to check that out.

Hi Emma my mom is helping me type this. We go to Disneyland all the time! What is your favorite ride? This is my first cruise and I'm a little mad because my class is going on a camping trip but my mom and dad said I have to go on this cruise. It would be great to have a buddy! My big sister will probably go to the Edge and be with other girls there. But sometimes she might hang out with me especially for swimming at the pool, which she loves to do. We're going to go zip lining in Puerto Vallarta. Are you going to do anything like that? Write again!

We're going to Disneyland for a few days after the cruise (shh... I won't tell Sam's teacher that he's going to miss a few days of school after spring break if you don't! ). I can't see us flying down from Sea-Tac to SoCal and *not* spending a few days at the parks!

Hi Glenn74, I'm also thinking the same thing - why drive 8 hours passing the parks each direction without stopping!!! So, I think we're going to re-arrange Hannah and Skyler's time out of school so they are on independent study the week after the cruise. That'll give me time to get my land-legs back too!
