Welcome Aboard! This is our first cruise too. But we are leaving the DS at home this time. It'll be our first time to have a vaca without the little guy along. He does get to go next time though.

Dont remember how many were needed but it was fairly quick. You just add them into your signature.

Here is the link for the DISigns forum.

I got a few picked out but nothing printed yet. I know some are still taking requests for new DISigns too.

Just wondering about the fish extender to do or not to do

"to do or not to do" about what part exactly?? I know we don't have too many signed up yet. I have read that closer to sailing it may get fuller. And depending on what everyone wants I have read of different ways of handling the #'s.

I know it took me a couple of weeks to get through all of the threads and more. But it certainly was fun and the ideas were running amuck for quite awhile. Now i have a Word doc and spreadsheet to help with organiztion. A few of the more organized and experienced cruisers have posted a spreadsheet and lists of what to bring and remeber to do too. But i am also planning both this cruise and another one in April 2012 with our DS5. Lots of fun to look forward to!

We haven't told our DS5 yet about our crusie in April 2012. He will find out at Christmas. Its hard to keep a lid on all the excitment right now. But I know it will be worth it!!

I would add into the My Favorites folder or on your favorites bar. Or you can chage the boards to your home page too......Which browser are you using?

You can also subscribe to the threads you want to keep track of and they will appear on one page together...which you can favorite that page and can see when there are new posts in those specific threads.

Let me know what you want to do and I can help walk you through it.

If I am remembering correctly, from what I have read they will get your meal on second seating quckily to get everyone done for the party.

I would do a search on the forum for "Pirate Party" and you should be able to find an answer. I think our experienced member for this cruise is on vacation right now.
