Got you moved up.

To learn ALL about Fish Extenders gift exchange, go here and scroll down to the Fish Extender entry (or look below, I got the links copied). There are 4 links there to help you out.

Once we close the list, around the end of this month, I'll split the list and you'll be able to see which rooms you have. Plan on less than 20 cabins per group. Right now we're at about 15 cabins per group.

You MUST have a Fish Extender outside your door to receive gifts. Disney has made it clear that we can't drop off gifts on the floor outside a cabin. They will just grab them and take them to Guest Services.

So excited to be working on the FE gifts. We have an FE from our last cruise that I made myself. I didn't know about gifts being sent to GS if you have no FE. Now I feel bad because our last cruise I hung a bag on the door when delivering to a cabin that had no FE. I wonder if they ever got our gifts.

So I guess a question I have about the FE. What if the gift u were doing requires u to hang a bag on the stateroom door? Do they remove it? Does the FE have to be small enough to fit in the FE? Good thing I saw this i guess.

Good question! I'm not sure, but I was thinking of taking extra clothes pins (we already pack a few for wet swimsuits) or extra safety pins to attach gifts to FEs. Even if you make smaller gifts, the FE may be overflowing from other people's gifts that also decided to give that day. Does that sound reasonable?

That is great! Has anyone done the race before? Does it begin when we reach port or later in the day? How is the route? Considering do it, but wonder if I can fit it in with my little one. Thanks for the info from anyone who has done the race.

 

[BEYONCE]

Does anyone know how long we'll be in each port?

From what I have read everyone meets on board castaway cay morning and then walk together to the race. I think we meet at 8am and race at 9. I hope the kids clubs will be open during race. I would think a lot of runners would need child care.

I guess my family isn't as excited as I am so our cabin Dan and Janelle will be the only ones participating in the FE exchange. Please remove Joshua and Cathy Perry and Sarah and Erin too. Sorry Janelle

If there's a FE there, I think placing on the floor right under it is OK, or just hang from the 'fish/seahorse'. They just don't want a big pile of 'stuff' by the door.

Updated Scott on the list. Diana (kirkaliciasmom) is handling the wristbands (silicone bands like the LIVEStrong bands so we can recognize each other on deck. You can post here for her, or PM her.

Got you on the list. See above for the bracelets (or maybe Diana has you covered)

No worries Jannelle, got them moved out of the FE list.

Beyonce:

Easy enough to look up on your reservation on the Disney Cruise site, but for easy reference, I put the itinerary on the FE Exchange spreadsheet that's linked in my signature. There's a tab at the bottom for "Itinerary".

Family Beach Day at Tiki Beach for Grand Cayman is sold out.
Segway Adventure and Beach for Costa MAya is sold out.
Cabana for Castaway Cay are sold out.
Palo Brunch is sold out.

Remember to hit up the Excursions Desk when you board to see what might still be available. There may have been cancellations. Palo & Remy ressies are at podium between the two restaurants. I think the official time is 1:00pm for making ressies in person, but there's usually someone there when you board, so worth making the trip up there early to see what's available.

First time cruiser? First time FE Exchange? Read this!

I tried to hijack this thread from the OP so I could post things like this on the first page. This person put together a GREAT list of links to information needed by the first time DIS cruiser. Not so much packing lists and such but FE and door magnet stuff. So here you go!
