Welcome, my kids and I are super excited I wish it was sooner. I was curious did they do anything special for mothers day on the ship?

 

[Silver Cinderella]

I don't recall that they did anything beyond having a couple of big cakes with nice Mother's day decorations on display in the main foyer, but I was so excited about actually being on the ship, I could have missed something.

HI! Joining your crew!
This is our first cruise, ever! And I'm already planning on booking the Fantasy during this cruise!
It'll be me, DH, DD will be 12 and DS 10. I expect to only see the kids at dinner as DS is looking forward to Aquaduck and they both can't wait to hang in Edge. I plan on eating, drinking and soaking up some sun!
Less than a year to go!

Hi!!

Welcome Aboard. You are going to love it and be hooked. This will be my 2nd DCL Cruise, actually my second cruise ever really and I am SUPER excited. You should consider joining the Fish Extender list we have going it really adds a little extra for the kids during the trip. I will have two kids in the Edge as well DS 12 and DS 10 (going to keep my fingers crossed he can age up because he wants to be with his brother, I've seen a lot of posts saying that it is usually allowed at 10.) and a DD 4 in the Club/Lab. Well happy planning!!

I don't think Edge will be a problem.
I'm kinda on the fence about doing FE. #1 I've been intimidated by the crafty things I've seen others make and I stink at that.. #2 We're staying in concierge and I'm afraid it will be a pain for people trying to leave things. I don't want it to be an inconvenience to leave us a gift!

One month down, 11 to go!!

My DD (5) and I were also on the may 1st cruise. We went with my awesome MIL. We had so much fun that I convinced my DH to go next year. We will also be joined by my niece, who will be 14 when we go!

We can't wait!!!

We decided to move our cruise to November 2012 (and RCCL), but we hope you all have a wonderful time next May!!! Say Hi to Mickey for us. Hoping to be back on board one of the Wonderful Disney ships in 2013!

To be honest I saw no fish extenders or anyone trying to deliver them to concierge on the Mother's Day cruise. I don't think anything would stick to the doors.

Don't they hang off the fish off to the side of the door?

 

[MaleficentRN]

Just saw that veranda rooms are no longer available on our cruise.

They are supposed to, I guess. The starfish with the room number was only used to hold notes from Disney to remind you of reservations, etc. I saw nothing hanging from any of them on deck 12. The doors themselves are not white metal like the rest of the ship. They are covered in a faux wood finish or covering, as are the walls.

They do have either a starfish,fish or sea horse On the may 1-5 cruise(dream) that I was on the everyone room we went to had there Fish Extentder up and out even in the gated rooms we had 22 rooms in our cruise it was lots and lots of fun and even got to meet 2 family. The Fe is to have fun with it it just adds to your Trip =)
