Some people have mentioned that other groups and non-DISers are likely to have fish extenders too. I think you need to go by the list or else you may run out before you get to the DISer who left you something great.

Yes, we need to go by the stateroom numbers. sometimes previous cruisers have FE's as well. Last time I got all the stateroom numbers in EXCEL and I organized them by floors and the number of persons in the room. . It really helped!

fyi - that aluminum shop is the shop...that is where the bulk of the party was....it's where my step dad and brother keep their race cars (stock cars). It was so hot and we all decided no more parties down at the shop until winter. My parents live on 5-8 acres and the shop is at the very back of the property - on the way up to the house, half way up is a cook shed....another shelter with fridge, grills, tvs, etc...

Hey everyone! We are back from Jackson Hole. The figure skating competition is over and it went really well. I have a very happy child. I need about 10 hours of sleep in row.

She is freaking out a little about not skating for 2 weeks on this cruise, her coach is going to give her some off ice stuff to work on, so hopefully it will not be too bad.

When the pictures come (I can't take pictures when she is skating, I forget what I am supposed to be doing and watch her instead. I have a whole video of the side of the ice skating rink) I will post some.

I know I have been gone a long time, I apologize, life just got in the way.

We are so glad she had a great time and can't wait for the photos!

Anyone like this one?? I am debating. I like it alot though.

I would only consider this one if it comes in lime green. Um, so not a granny swim suit!

the pond is pretty dry!

Just remember....as a dis'er, you will have the OFFICIAL MINI NAVIGATOR!

IN THE MINI NAVIGATOR THERE WILL BE A LISTING OF ALL THE DISBOARD'ERS AND THEIR STATEROOM NUMBERS. NEXT TO THEIR STATEROOM NUMBER WILL BE A PICTURE OF NEMO IF THEY ARE PARTICIPATING IN THE FISH EXTENDER EXCHANGE

If you use your Mini-Navigator, that will be all that you need to deliver and receive your gifts!!!!!

YUP! THANKS! GOT IT!

Steve, what picture are you referring to? haven't seen any pictures posted yet?

The joke of the day today, was that it was ok to take a photo of one of the people at the brunch, as long as they were not identified. Photos are coming soon. I was only able to get one photo with my digital "brownie" so I am waiting for all the others to post so I can get the better photos.

Ok, I would like to see a few of the ladies in this outfit too!

Ok - here are some pictures of our ride in the Lilly Belle today -

Great photos, makes me sorry I was not able to go into the park with you today!

IF ANYBODY DOESN'T HAVE A FISH EXTENDER, BUT WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ONE, JUST PM ME AND I WILL MAKE YOU ONE.

Connie

Thank you for the offer, but one of my Queen's is making one for me and the boys.

Share the tips, how can one put themselves in position to be chosen for this honor?

Go to the Main Street Station and ask one of the conductors. That's it - super easy.

We actually got on the train with this car in New Orleans. We asked the conductor there and he told us that car can only be boarded at Main Street. So we rode around to Main Street and asked and got to go right in - 6 others rode with us and we had our own conductor who sat with us and gave us some background info. Very interesting and a lot of fun.

Now this was cool, many years ago, if you asked nicely, you could ride all the way round on the tender behind the locomotive. There was a bench seat there; it was for the engineer when Walt would run his trains!

Ok - here are some pictures of our ride in the Lilly Belle today -

That is totally, totally awesome! How do we get to ride in this?

Thanks Lisa, I love getting to hear CMs talk about WDW, and this sounds like a great way to learn a little bit of history about DL.

Pj

PJ, we have a plan!!

I have stayed at the Paradise Pier many many times. I think you will find it just fine. It is a very nice hotel within walking distance from Downtown Disney. Disney could not charge $200+ a night if it was an awful hotel. It is not the Four Seasons but it is nice, clean and has comfy beds. The pool is not as fancy as others but we never swim there since we stay there to go to Disneyland. I figure I can swim at home another day.

We stayed at Pardise Pier a couple years ago. You can go swimming at the Disney Land Never Land Pool. Also there's a quiet pool over there.
We watched the fireworks from the roof of the parking garage, right next to the pool. It was great. Connie

One of the other people in the train with us mentioned that - they made it sound like they had done it recently. We'll ask about that next time we go up.
