Tom - Do you have your cabin number yet? If so, let me know and I will post it in our list so we will know where to find you.

Hello everyone!

Our FE arrived in the mail today. We got ours from EBay. The seller was 'ilvdisney2008'. She currently only has one other Fish Extender listed. She does take special orders though. Just search for "Fish Extender" and she will pop up.

We also visited the Dollar Store today as Disney Sweetie recommended.

For the list, my wife and I are both 41. So we are in the 40+ crowd. Our kids ages are already on the list.

Just a quick thought.....some DISers put there names on the gifts so we know who they are from but others dont. That is totally up to you.

Have a great day! 5 weeks from right now I will be wondering around the ship trying to get some lunch and hopefully meeting some of you!!

Wow...5 weeks huh? I hadnt counted yet! I'm so excited!

I wonder if anyone else will be joing our little troop on this cruise?

Question about the Fish Extenders....what type of material do you all use?

Oh, BTW -- our ages....I'm 26...she's 25.

Cheers,
Josh

I used cotton or cotton/poly blend. Mine is out of tigger fabric for the background and then solid color pockets. Then I used bias tape for around the edges. Is that as clear as mud?

 

[Disney Sweetie]

Couldn't have made it any muddier if I had tried myself!! That sounds like what mine is made from. I didnt make it so I am not positive. I dont have mine yet. My sister is making it. I am anxious to get it so I can start decorating!!

Hello Coffeegirl
Vielen Dank (German lesson Nr. 5: many thanks)
Thats really great of you to order the buttons

Regards from Switzerland, I won't tell about the weather, it is inexistent...
Andrea

Cgirl here You are coming all the way from Switzerland! Wow! I assume not just for a three day cruise! How exciting. We are going to be venturing to Europe SOON! There is so much I want to see and do there. I wanted my girls to be a bit older and we are just about getting there.

 

[Coffeeguy48]

Coffeegirl -

Wow, really nice of you to offer to do the buttons. That would be super!

We're in Oviedo, Florida (just northwest of Orlando) - though fairly new. We're from the Northeast - Boston and Philly. My husband transferred down here last April and the rest of us joined him August 1. Definitely not the best time to arrive in Florida but, all in all, we're loving it. It's the darn lovebugs I could do without - and I see a few of them arriving already for their May appearance.

Not too far from us. BUT EVEN CLOSER TO THE MOUSE! We drive over so much we have been to Disney Quest the past two weekends in a row! We too moved here at the end of JUNE! Oh my, nothing like jumping right in with both feet! We are used to the weather but will admit that 95 is HOT! My daughter used to call the Home Depot parking lot the "hottest place on earth"! We spent a lot of time there when we first moved down! UUGGH Love bugs! Hate them too! What a mess!

Josh,

I finished my fish extender yesterday, so if you have any questions, let me know.

I think I was going to try and make one.....Any clues?

 

[Coffeeguy48]

I used cotton or cotton/poly blend. Mine is out of tigger fabric for the background and then solid color pockets. Then I used bias tape for around the edges. Is that as clear as mud?

Wow, clear & crisp! Very helpfull! Bias tape! never would have thought of that one! I am gonna do this! (of course this is c-gril.....cguy would never take on such a thing!)

 

[kaykels]

After I got mine in the mail and saw how simple it looked ... I should have made it myself. Hey, how many of us have red, black and white ones from ebay? hee hee.

 

[cruisindisney]

Here is my fish extender. I hope I added the picture right. This is my first attempt.

 

[kaykels]

I AM SO JEALOUS !!!!!

 

[Disney Sweetie]

That is very cute....Looks great! You did a good job.

 

[swissgirl66]

Wow, that Tigger FE sure is amazing, wonderfully done, a big from over the Atlantic.

Hey, Coffeegirl, where and when do you plan to visit Europe, let us know and stop by, whenever you are near Switzerland, and I will be glad to help you with tipps and hints, anytime. I used to be a travel agent, so count on me.

And no, the cruise will be nearly the end of our 1 month trip through Florida, first we spend a week on Captiva Island, where Urs (my beloved husband) will do some golfing, I will be on the beach with Alena, collecting tons of shells and just relax and enjoy the sun after a coooooold Swiss winter. Then we will go to Sarasota for a few days shopping and again... beach.... Then 5 days Orlando with WDW and Seaworld, we will be staying at the Polynesian and then T H E W O N D E R with all you sweet ones

And then Disney Vero Beach for 5 days, and then, hopefully at Cape Canaveral the start of the Space Shuttle (highlight for my husband) and then 2 days Fort Lauderdale before we go home again.

Any tipps from your side, what are the MUST SEES at the above locations.

Suzy -

LOVE the FE! It's Tigger-ific!!! Nice job! And all the better that you made it yourself!!


Andrea -

What is your time difference from Eastern Standard Time? And, looking at your timeline, you are going to be one exhausted DISer by the time you board the ship after 5 days of WDW and SeaWorld. But good timing because the ship will seem more relaxing. What a great vacation you have planned! I'll be lucky to get my husband away from his Blackberry phone for a 3-night cruise, never mind any longer than that.

I think someone is already doing this - like i said - I got behind on the reading - but will someone email out a list of who/ages/cites from/cabin number before the cruise ?

I dont have my cabin assigment yet - its a guar --- and we are from Cleveland, OH

Thanks,
Tom - Leigh

 

[Disney Sweetie]

Click on the link in my signature line below my picture (see who is sailing with us) and it will take you to the list of everyone. I have not listed the adults ages or the cities, but I can get them if you want them.

you guys know better than me -- ive heard of people doing this and sounds like a lot of fun ---

This is our second disney cruise - we did the same one - same dates last year for Leighs B-day also and we really enjoyed it.

Next year we are doing Africa, around the same time, for our honeymoon - but getting married this Oct.
