August 3, 2015 ~ 7-Night Alaskan Cruise on Disney Wonder

[Nora Llaguno]

Hi Louella,
We would love to exchange with you. I don't seem to be able to find an actual sign up location for pixie dust so I am hoping that by communicating thru chats my kids will be added. Our cabin is 7538. Looking forward to the fun!

Hi My name is Nora Llaguno and I am trying to add my children to the pixie dust group.

I have added you to the bottom of the list (okay, I couldn't sleep and got up because this trip just makes me so excited!)

We are in room 7638, I must have messed up earlier! Thanks for catching this! Tricia

More than likely, I messed up... It has been fixed! Sorry about that!

So, I'm not sure how the Pixie Dust group will work

My thinking is that the only people we are required to gift are the people in our own group. But if anyone else is like me, they had way to many ideas and thus way too many gifts so any extras can go to the people in the other 2 groups. Like I have made a small thing for every person in every group and then have a cabin gift for every cabin (different ones, but that is okay!) Anybody you want to gift to in the list outside of your group would technically be "Pixie Dust" since it is not a requirement. So for me, I have one set of gifts for the Mickey/Minnie group and then another set for the Donald/Daisy group and then a mix of those gifts for the pixie dust group. Like I said before, this trip just makes me so excited! And I love to give gifts... and have passed that love on to my daughter who gives her own toys to family members when she discovers it is their birthday and she didn't get anything for them. Christmas was interesting this year because she decided to give me and my brother "memories" so she picked toys of ours from when we were little and gave them to us, my nephews and her sister... it was pretty funny to see the reaction on her cousin's face (and my brother's) when he unwrapped a pinewood derby car from 30 years ago!

We have some gifts for the two families in the Pixie Dust Group.

Tricia, can you confirm your cabin number for me? I wrote down 7638 but the Group list (on page 2 of this thread) says 7658. I want to make sure I deliver to the right room.

Getting really excited now there is just over 1 week until we leave for the USA to start our holiday!

Thank you so much for catching this!!!

We (17 of us ) will be on this same cruise! What do you think the weather will be like? I have no idea what kind of clothing to bring for the ports.

Hello, My name is Nora Llaguno and we will be cruising with all of you lovely people. This is our very first Disney cruise and our children's first cruise ever. We only just heard about fish extenders from a friend and would like to join in the fun. In reading some of the posts it looks like there was a deadline to sign up. Is there ANY way my 2 children can participate? Is there a group for late comers? I think they would love this fun activity and I know that my daughter would love to make goodies to hand out.
Please advise as to what my options are.

We are:
Alex (12)
Emma (10) Dory

We are in cabin 7538

Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated! Even if we are able to just hook up with 1 or 2 other cabins.
Thank you!
Nora

Nora, Did your son have a favorite character? Did you want to add yourself and husband as well? If so , what are your favorite characters? If not, no worries. Thanks!

 

[Nora Llaguno]

Nora, Did your son have a favorite character? Did you want to add yourself and husband as well? If so , what are your favorite characters? If not, no worries. Thanks!

Oh yes, that would be fun!

EMMA - likes Dory, Chip and Dale, Pluto or any disney character
ALEX - loves Star Wars or the avengers

NORA (me) - I love all things disney I love to bake, read and anything holiday
FERMIN (dad) - Also loves Star Wars (especially Darth Vader). He likes to eat what I cook and drink wine

Thanks, we are so excited!

 

[Nora Llaguno]

I keep checking the link with the list of participating families to see if there are any more Pixie Dust kids. I haven't seen any added. Will a final list be updated or go out before we leave? We have a lot of extra FE gifts in case there are last minute add ons.
Thanks for all of your help. I will be a pro for our next Disney cruise

 

[touchstone74]

I have updated the list! As soon as I see changes (usually when I am at my computer during the week) I make updates to the list with anything people post. Not much longer now!!!

Can anyone help me link up with a Fish Extender Group or Pixie Dust Group? Honestly, I'm not sure of the difference between the two. I've already made some things and purchased items, but not sure how to link up with other families. How many people are generally in each group? Any help is appreciated. It's our first Disney cruise and we are so excited. We have two boys 10 and 6. Thanks!

For this group, the Fish Extender group closed a few weeks ago. But a Pixie Dust Group was added for people who wanted to join an FE but were a little late. I think you can still join the FE group under the Pixie Dust. Just list your room number, the names of the people in your room (ages for kids as well as gender), and favorite character.

 

[Nora Llaguno]

Hi Kristin,
We are newbies to this process as well. I was recently added to the Pixie Dust group. The Pixie Dust group is for those who missed the cut off for the regular Fish Extender groups but it acts the same way. There are only 2 other families (3 including you) but I have purchased lots of goodies. I think we will get a couple more that will join the Pixie group before we sail and you can "pixie dust" gifts to anyone really, the families you eat with, or anyone your children befriend on the cruise. You are in the right place, I think you just need to list your names, ages and favorite characters.
I look forward to meeting you,
Nora

There is a link in my signature to the FE list (if you are accessing it from a desktop or laptop. On the mobile site it is about 3/4 of the way down on page 2 in this thread!) We have it broken down into three groups: Mickey/Minnie, Donald/Daisy and a Pixie Dust group. As soon as you give me your information I can add it to the Pixie Dust group. Welcome!!!

SO excited for our first cruise and looking forward to the Pixie Dust fun. Thanks for letting us join so last minute. I wish I had discovered this sooner, but I'm sure it will still be great. Look forward to meeting you too.

 

[Kristin Cruiser]

For this group, the Fish Extender group closed a few weeks ago. But a Pixie Dust Group was added for people who wanted to join an FE but were a little late. I think you can still join the FE group under the Pixie Dust. Just list your room number, the names of the people in your room (ages for kids as well as gender), and favorite character.

Thanks!

 

[touchstone74]

The FE list is updated through this point! Getting close now!!

 

[LauraMiller]

I really want to participate, this is My 5 year old daughters MakeAWish trip so I actually still don't know our cabin number, we will have itinerary tomorrow afternoon. There are only 3 in our party, my father who is almost 70, myself 43 and my 5 year old daughter This is my daughters 1st cruise and I know it's going to be unbelievable! Even if We don't get to participate and can maybe just meet up with other families, that would be amazing!

 

[Nora Llaguno]

Hi Laura,
My daughter will be thrilled to have another cabin on the Pixie Dust list with us! She and I have been putting together our FE gifts and she was just telling me "there are way more boys than girls, mom" See you soon!
Nora
