If you see a red Mini Cooper Clubman traveling south on I-5 next Saturday, be sure to wave!!!
If you see a dark blue Honda minivan with reddish Oregon plates 00112, we'll be on the I-5 the same day!! Wave to the Fox fam!
We will be in a gold Toyota Sienna heading down I-5 next Saturday. Planning on leaving Lincoln at 9am. Maybe I can find some of that car paint and write something cute on our windows. My DH will probably ax that idea.
Thanks for the response... As I said I am sooooo new to all of this... My first
disney cruise was about 4 yrs ago and it was only for 4-5 days...Back then I knew nothing about these forums and Fish Extenders. However, I saw all the doors decorated and wondered what it was all about. Recently, I had just stumbled on this while playing around on the computer...I am still navigating around this forum and all of the links.. Can be overwhelming, but looks like a lot of fun.... Since the FE is closed... I am just curious how the whole thing wks...What do people buy to put in them? What are the lanyards for? Where do I post our names? As you can see I am extremely NEW to all of this and sorry for all the questions..I was still thinking of making a FE so that I can put it on our door and maybe I'll put some things in it for my girls since it is Easter Week. BTW.. Would you happen to know if the Dis Cruise does anything on Easter for the kids?
Lizac, Here are some good links on how the FE's work.

As for what goodies people give, it varies. It is everything from: crafty homemade items, dollar store trinkets, goody bags, candy, regional items from the givers home state/country, mementos from our sailing, pretty much anything goes.
What is your cabin number? If I have anything extra I would be happy to swing them by your cabin.
As far as Easter, I have heard the ship decorates a bit. The White Rabbit comes out for meets and picture, the restaurants decorate and have chocolate eggs, and there are some Easter services. Now a friend told me they called and
DCL said they will do an egg hunt. However, I have read from past cruises there is no egg hunt. We are planning on doing our own egg hunt in our cabin.
Today I am finishing buying candy for eggs, a photo mat from Michaels, getting the dog's shots updated for boarding, going to the book store/library to stock up on books for my daughters reading obsession, and a baseball game for Danny.
Really hopping to get a Kohls 30% off coupon so I can buy some clothes for me.
