February 15th, 2014 Fantasy - Western

[Jacobsons]

Hi -
I'm brand new to cruising in general and Disney cruise lines in particular. I heard that each cruise often has a Facebook page, but I can't find one for the 2/15/14 Fantasy Western Caribbean cruise. Is there one that I'm missing?

Also - any tips for packing things that I wouldn't normally think of? Or any other tips?

We are a couple with 5 and 7 year old sons.

Thanks!

Hi- I just found out fish extenders and we would love to participate but I cannot add our info to the spreadsheet. My sons Aidan 11 and Grady 9 would love to join in. They have no allergies and our stateroom is 8680.

I'm sorry the FE closed at 5pm EST prompt, hence why you were unable to sign up. Due to the cruise being so close I am having to strictly uphold the FE deadline, as some folks will start departing for Florida in the next few days.

You are more than welcome to join with us at the Vista Cafe on deck 4 on Feb 15th at 3pm

6616 Madi, age 17 female
Nina, age 14 female

Fingers crossed...

Hello, all! I wanted to say thank you SO MUCH for all the delightful Fish Extender gifts we received from the Late Group! SOOOOO much fun!

I've participated in FE gift exchanges 5 times previously, so I was ESPECIALLY impressed that I got so many gifts I'd never even seen before. My husband's favorite was the Light Card (the one you put in the light switch controller at the door). He usually just eats the candy gifts and ignores the rest, but that one made him VERY happy. Kudos to the creator!

I was showing my FE goodie bag to a friend this morning and she was shocked at how incredibly awesome everything was. Useful items, fun items, clever items, personalized items, items from faraway places... She couldn't stop looking at everything, which is how I felt every day!

I would love to know if any of you used the knot-making kit we passed out. It was so much fun to put them together! (Of course, if you found them awful and would rather not say so here, please PM me. I really do want feedback!)

We couldn't find our usual FE to put on our door -- where did it go?! -- so I brought manila bags, an embarrassing number of Sharpies, and some cheap ribbon. My kids and I each decorated our own bags, and I was stunned my husband did, too. I wouldn't say they were the best-looking FE bags out there, but they did the job.

Again, a huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the Late group! You guys are amazing!
