Hi,
Glad your taking your first cruise you are going to love it. Fish extender or FE is sort of like a secret santa. Everyone who participates hanges a set of fabric pockets off of the fish that is outside of their cabin. Folks sign up on a list for us it is 15 cabins per list and they make little gifts for everyone that is on their list and over the course of the 7 days delivers them to the stateroooms on their list. There are several facebook groups that show ideas as well as some websites. You can PM me for the websites if you are interested. The current list is on page 24 and there are only 5 spots left on that list. You are going to have a blast as there are lots of great things to do and see on the ship.

Me, DH, DS (12), DS (10) and DD (7)

Hey There

Since there will be 15 families in a group and you make or buy one set of gifts per family and deliver when you want. There is a possibility you could get everything the first day - right? We don't have certain days to give our gifts - or do we?

thanks!

no we do not have assigned days to deliver with everyone having port adventures and so much to do on the ship it is very unlikely that everyone would deliver on the first day. as for what to give and how much to give it is up to the individual. some people to one gift for the cabin. i am doing one gift for each person in the cabin and it will depend on the age of the person. this is really open to what each person wants to do and to keep it fun for everyone. i will have copies of each list on the first day of the cruise for anyone that forgot their list. we will be having a dismeet just for a couple of minutes to meet. you can come or not it is once again up to the individual and what you have going on at that time. hope everyone is having fun getting ready it is coming up quickly.

Good afternoon,

This is our first cruise. I think my kids would love to do the fish extender as well. Were you able to find a group doing this? If so How can I get involved?

OK I see how to get involved now. However, unfortunately the links do not work for us either.
