FE or Fish extender is a bag with pockets for each person in your group you hang next to your door on a metal fish. (you can look up fish extender on ebay for what they look like) Other people on the cruise who are doing extenders also have a bag. You go around filling each person extender with little gifts each day. And they fill yours. It's just a little fun think and keeps the kids busy in the am when not much is going on. My daughter loved to give the gifts as much as she loved to get them. Let me know if any of you want to do them this cruise and we can start a list with your stateroom number and names ages of people in your group. Thanks Jill

I can't wait to go! I'm going with my 7 year old daughter. We are both very excited. We are going to do the Atlantis Aquarium excursion.

We did that excursion back in May. I thought it would be so much better. The tour is ok but a little much for my 5 year old. And it stoped in the Casino and pt out things she could have cared less about. I thought the Aquarium would have been a lot better (Bigger). It looks so nice in all the pics you see. The tanks with fish are gray and dirty. The waterpark looked great but we didn't get that with our excursion. After the tour we ended up walking around a little and just coming back to the boat. I wasn't thrill with how much it cost for what we got.Maybe you'll have better luck, just thought I would let you know.
We are so looking forward to the cruise!! Is this your 1st one?

Hi. Yes this is our first Disney Cruise! thanks! We are DVC members and have gone to WDW many many many times but this is the first time we are trying a cruise. My daughter (7) loves fish (all marine life) and swimming so that's why we're doing the Atlantis Aquarium excursion. I want to check out Atlantis and this is a good way for us both to be happy! --and for less than $100 for the both of us, that's fine. Although my daughter is most excited about free ice cream on board!

We didn't get to swim at Atlantis it was not part of the excursion we bought but when my daughter is older I would go back for the water slides. We also have been to Disney world many many times. Once you do the Cruise you will be hooked my husband and I like it better then Disney world. Ha ha about the Ice Cream they will send mickey bars to your room even though it's not on the room service menu!! I don't know who likes that more my daughter me or my hubby.

HI~
I know my daughter would love to do the water slides, but I'm going to try to convince her with the swimming on board and at Castaway Cay, we don't have to do that (that will work, right? ). She does love aquariums, so I know she'll enjoy looking at the fish. And, oh, yes, the Mickey Bars...I'm sure we'll get those as well...and cake...and more icecream...and cookies...and they'll have to roll us off the ship at the end! Think I'll up my workouts now in preparation! ---and then off to zebra dome land when we get off the ship....more calories!!!!

 

[miss-jill]

-Has anyone been to the nick hotel? If so what are the best things for my 5 year old daughter to do? Should I book some kind of dinning, is it worth it?

- 1 month from now my bags will be packed and I'll be ready to go!!

I was just in Buffalo this weekend. And you are right... It was COLD!! It is really warming up down here. We are going to hit 80 tomorrow! I'm thinking a Blizzard Beach day to work on my tan before the cruise is in order!! I hope the weather keeps warming up for February!
