4/24/2011 'Dream'ing of Easter with Donald Duck April 24, 2011

Moving right along.... :) :banana::banana::banana:

So since this is my first Fish Extender experience, what sort of stuff do we exchange? Any suggestions?
 
It can be absolutely anything. This is my first one so I searched all kinds of threads on here. Some people are truly talented with the stuff they've made, that I sure couldn't. :scared1: It's really just for fun so it totally does not matter what it is. Most people are restricted by what they can pack into suitcases and fly with. Others have the fortune of being able to drive to the port, so nothing's ever the same. I guess that's part of what makes it so interesting. There are some great inexpensive ideas for things to get and places to get them on these boards though. :surfweb:
 
Marla:

On my last cruise for FE gifts, I made FE gifts. For the kids, I bought those blow up floats and some candy in a goody bag. For the adults, I took a picture of the Wonder and edited it to say our sail dates, I then put that picture in a frame. I also put some candy in a goody bag. We got candy, magnets, small photo albums,... It really can be anything. Think small party favor gifts, nothing that will break the bank.

Brad: We will be at the meet.
 
Only 10 more days to go! :banana: So excited to meet you all. I finished making my FE gifts and I'm quite proud of myself since I am not known to be a very crafty person. Our vacation actually begins in 7 days because we're flying to Hilton Head first and then driving to the ship on Sunday. We can hardly think of anything else right now. We're in full-on vacation mode! Have a safe trip everyone and see you on Easter!!
 

I'm in stress mode! :eek: I have to pack for our week in Disney, and for the cruise! I'm in the "emailing teachers" mode since our kids are missing 3 days of school, and my mind is on overload about what I'm needing to pack. At least I have the weekend since we don't leave until Monday morning...early!

But my FE is made and I've had a lot of fun getting stuff to put in everyone else's! I'm so excited about my FE I have to share what my friend made me!

Marla, That's a lot of packing! You must be going nuts about now. Tough to be so worried when you're also so excited huh?! I'm hoping to have everything done by this weekend myself, so I don't have too much to stress about next week . . . just count down! 9 more days!

I finished our FE too. And by finish I mean, ordered it on-line and ironed on some letters! :lmao:

I love your FE Brad!

I'm trying to get most of our stuff done by this weekend, which really gives me only one more day - I need to pack up Easter stuff while the kids are in school so they don't see it :eek:
We're doing a split stay in Disney so I'm thinking it may be a great idea to do separate suitcases for each hotel, and then separate suitcases for the cruise - you know, those nicer clothes for dinner that we won't need in Disney. Sounds like a great idea but I think I'm making it so much harder for me to pack! I'm trying to minimize all my re-packing when moving around :idea:

Now if I just stay home rather than running around buying stuff for the trip - we leave in 4 days! :woohoo:
 
I know I'm REALLY pushing it, but our family just found out about this great i! idea! If we could be included that would be awesome!!!

Maybe we can get our kids together. I have a 11 year old daughter and she's nervous that she won't enjoy the kids club. She obviously has never been on a cruise before.

Maybe we can get them to email each other/pen pal for the next several months and then they can get even more excited to meet each other!

Let me know if you'd like to do that and we can email each other our addresses.

Hi Sandy,

I have an almost 11 year old daughter that will be sailing with us on this trip. She is a bit nervous as well. Might be fun to have them email each other. Let me know...

Thanks
Andrea
 
Andrea,

I'm sorry you missed our Fish Extender, and we're a small group too. Unfortunately, some of us have already started our trips and not only packed, but have left home too.
We are having a Group Meet on Easter Sunday at 3pm at Currents Bar family area on Deck 13 forward overlooking the Deck 12 sundeck and deck 11 adults only pool area. If it is raining we will be meeting near the Vista Cafe' on Deck 4 midship inside.
I believe that Sandy (svcutler) switched to a different cruise date early on, but there are several young girls in the families that are meeting with us on boarding day. I hope to see you and yours there!

Sea ya real soon!
The Brads.
 
Hi there,

Just wondering if you got in on the fish extender for 4/24 cruise?

Sounds like fun!

Thanks
Andrea
 
Thanks so much for your quick response Brad! I really appreciate it!

If anyone else contacts you about the fish extender, let me know and maybe I can work something out with them. My girls are of course now completely into it now that they have seen it! Just my luck :)

We will try to catch up with you all on day 1.

Thanks for including us :)

Hi Andrea....I remembered the fish extender late in the game, too. I would absolutely be interested in working something out. My DD (almost 11) would be very excited to participate (and so would I!)....Let me know.

Hi Andrea - along with the FE note I just posted to you, my daughter (who will be 11 on May 9th) is an only child and always looking to make friends. She's not shy at all, and this being her 5th cruise would love to make a new friend to show around the board. If you want to do the FE, my information is below. I look forward to meeting you on Sunday! Michelle

Ok, I am confused. How many people were left out of the FE exchange and want to be included? I have extra's and would not mind including you if I have enough gifts. Since the original FE exchange list is already closed, I don't think others can include you, but I might be able to help. Let me know!
