Hello everyone!! We are sooo excited for our cruise!! This is our first disney cruise and first ever cruise!!

 

[nascar8820]

We are finally less than a month before we cruise.

This weekend I started working on our Fish Extender. I just have a couple of finishing touches. I must say that it turned out pretty good for someone who used hemming tape and fabric glue!

We are counting down. Can't wait! My DD will be 11 and we are celebraing her birthday on board. We have cruised on Carnival before, but this is the 1st time on Disney. My mother-in-law went and had a blast.

: So someone educate me on these fish extenders. I just found out about them on ebay. Do lots of people have them, and do we need to get one?

I don' know how many will have them but I am getting one off ebay. We have little toys to put in them so far. If you have one we'll be looking for you.

Hi - we will be on the 4/27 Wonder Cruise as well. It's our first Disney Cruise and I have been counting down for almost a year. I can't believe we now have less than 1 month.

List of characters:

Anyone get their docs yet!!!

 

[happydayva]

We got our packet today!!! It is really becoming reality!!! We are going down on the 25th and staying 2 days at the contemporary before the cruise and then coming back and staying at the animal kingdom lodge. We are going to attend the pirate and princess party on the 2nd of May. Anyone else staying at WDW or going to the P&P party? Also, what excursions are you guys doing? Anyone doing the atlantis aquaventure?

Me 33, DH 47, DD 5

We got our packet yesterday too. We are doing the land and sea package. We will be staying 3 days at Port Orleans French Quarter before our cruise.

We have not booked any excursions. I was thinking about parasailing at CC but my fiancee thinks I am crazy because I have a fear of heights

Is anyone interested in a Fish Extender exchange?

I have been reading the FE threads and some are extremely extensive in detail. I am thinking something a lot easier.

Here is my idea - Make a list of participants with each person's DIS name and Cabin #. If they'd like to share the names of the people in their cabin that's great.

A suggestion on what type of gifts to give would be something that represents your hometown. You will only need to bring one gift per cabin for the entire cruise. A gift can consist of a few items.

I will keep everyone updated on how many DISers have contacted me so people can start planning how many items they need to bring. A week prior to sailing, the final list will be PM'd to everyone who's participating.

FE ideas - If you don't want to make a fish extender you could hang anything with a pocket (canvas bag, gift bag, etc.)

Let me know your thoughts.

I have purchased a fish extender and have purchased gifts. I will be roaming the halls looking for fish to give them to. If you are interested we can start a cabin list.

We r taking our 2nd DCL cruise with u also. Traveling will be Me(mommy32),DH33,DS6 & DS4.....Can't wait....my kids have the countdown going everyday....little do they know we r coming down 2 days prior....staying at CountryInn right on the port to watch the boats come in and visiting KSC for the day Saturday. May do MK in Friday after arriving, depends on kids....Its chilly here in Jersey and Orlando is in 80's today....Sounds wonderful.

Started packing.....this trip seems easier then first...DO NOT OVERPACK....lugging around all that luggage and gathering it on departing day is miserable...

Got my documents today....SOON everyone.

We will have 3 little ones traveling as well. My list to bring is getting extremely long since I have to accommodate 2 in diapers and 1 still eating baby food & formula.

We will be staying at POP Century for a couple of days following the cruise. We haven't planned any excursions. We may just stay on board in Nassau.

I have been reading about FE for awhile and never did attempt to make one but I ordered one from someone else and should get it in a couple of days. I would be interested in an exchange. I wasn't sure how many folks on the shorter cruise would actually have a fish extender

 

[happydayva]

I think the fish extender exchange is a really neat thing. I think I would be interested. My DD (5) would probably love it!! I definately think simple is better. I have already been threatened by my DH for packing too much. Do people usually put their names on the gifts, or are they just anonymous?

That's alot of extra stuff-- but the good thing is now you'll have lots of extra space when you use the diapers and food.
Hopefully my list won't be too long (only one still in diapers and she's starting to train)-- yippee), we were on the Wonder 3 day in November-- so I hope we know what to expect--- I think??? LOL

I signed my DS6 and myself up for the Stingray Swim on Castaway Cay-- I just hope the water warms up in the next 3 weeks--- wishful thinking.


I think the Fish Extender idea sounds good too!
