Hello everyone! DH and I will be joining you on this cruise. We did have a 7 night Eastern cruise booked in February but once I realized how much cheaper this cruise was, we switched to this one.

This will be our 2nd cruise. 1st without the kids.

Anyone interested in a FE exchange?

Hi Everyone

we will be joining you on this cruise too, we are Marie and Roger and we're coming onboard with our teenagers Jo age 17 and James who's 14 , we're from the Uk and it will be so lovely to escape the cold for just a few short weeks

this will be our 3rd disney cruise, we've just got off the magic a few days ago at barcelona and we had such a amazing time that we couldn't resist booking again, this cruise fitted perfectly with the next time we're out in florida and my birthday on the 3rd Jan so we're really excited to be joining you all

Marie

ps my kiddies don't know yet either, we're telling them boxing day when they get a little down about going back to school

Thank you!

We participated in the FE (fish extender) exchange on our last cruise. Our boys really liked it!! It is so fun to come back to our room or wake up in the morning to find treats at your door.

For the rest of our group...If anyone would like to learn more about it, you can do so here...

I will be happy to keep track of all the participants in te FE exchange if we get enough of people who want to do it.


Have a magical day!

HELLO LISARE

We will also be surprising our 5 and 8 year olds this christmas.
Any special ideas or plans on how you will do it?

I surprised our boys last Christmas with our first cruise.

i would be interested in taking part in a FE exchange, we did one on the dover to barcelona cruise and it was great fun

 

[aanderson5]

I would be interested in joining in the fish extender as well. I have been reading about them since we first started looking at booking and thought it would be great fun.

I would also be interested in joining in the fish extender fun.

Thank you for sharing your ideas with me. I really enjoyed reading it and gaining even more ideas for us to use.

the fe exchange...did you just randomly place things in any fish extenders you saw. Or did you hunt out the one's where people gave you their stateroom number.

Once our FE group is finalized, I will send out the list to all the FE participants including the stateroom number. Then you would pick a day and time to deliver your goodies to all the staterooms on the list. This is done in PM's so your stateroom number isn't out there in public. (Just in case-- even though there has never been any problems)

On our last cruise it took my son and I about 30 minutes but it was so fun to look at all the decorated doors. The only FE's I saw where the ones in our group.

I will be travelling with myself 37, my husband 37, my daughter who will be 6 and my son who will turn 9 on the cruise. We are also travelling with 10 other family members. Ranging from 70 to 4 months old. I will tell them about the exchange as well.

Thanks for organizing it...it sounds like a lot of fun.

We booked this morning.

I have a site up to track FEs for another cruise we are taking in 2011 so I added what what avaliable from this thread. I am in no way trying to step on your toes, mommyofthreeboys.

Here is the link for the Fish Extender list just click on the Jan 2011 cruise to see the list.

The page will be more printer friendly in the coming weeks. I just threw this together to get the ball rolling on the other cruise and this is just a port till I get some time to clean it up.

Scott, that's awesome! If you want to take over the list, that's fine by me! Just let me know

You can add that we are also GTY and this is our second cruise.

Thanks so much!!

 

[mazz1]

can i just let you know for the fe exchange that we are on 2nd (late) dinner seating and we are in a gty rooms too, we have booked two rooms so the boys will be in one and they have a FE and the girls will be next door (hopefully) and we have our super girlie pink princess FE

both my children are older and i should have said that they both have autism, my son is really hoping he will get some super american candy in his FE (i'm guilty of dropping hints here)

and being in the Uk i do hope i can return the favour with something that you cannot get in the states but i'm not telling as i'd hate to spoil the suprise

Marie

 

[lakehead92]

sorry - as a newby. What does GTY stand for?
We are on the eraly seating for dinner as well.

I also believe we will have 2 maybe 3 staterooms participating..all on the early seating.

HI EVERYONE!! I am Emily, the wife of ssanders79. As you saw, we booked this AM! It's funny, we just got off the Wonder DD (Aug 8-13), and we re-booked for a 7-night western on board. But........there was one problem......how could we wait almost 14 months to cruise again??? Answer - book another cruise!!!!!!!!!

This will be our 3rd cruise - the first was a 3 night (honeymoon) on the Wonder - we did cat 12 GTY and were upgraded to a cat 11 on deck 7. This last one, we had a verandah, and in fact, booked the same exact room for the Oct 2011 cruise. But, since this is an add-on cruise, we decided to go for 11C GTY. If they release FLA resident rates, we will probably upgrade, but so far, we are just happy to be on the ship again so fast! And, it will be our 1st on the Magic! I hope hope hope it's still decorated for Christmas.

And, for FE, we had a TON of fun! Our DD3 had a GREAT time checking it and passing out the gifts. Can't wait to meet everyone!!
