I can't even check in yet....someone (T.A, or Disney ) put my birthday in wrong. Now I have to call someone and fix it. I would hate for them to not let me on because of a date of birth. Problem #2 they have my in laws and my family in the same room.....ugh we are to have 2604 and 2602. They have both families in 2604. And you just can't fit 7 in a ocean view room. Boy that would be cramped. Could you imagine 7, no way. Oh well looks like ill be on the with someone today. Wish me luck, and a short hold time!

I'm traveling with my 7 y/o DD, we have room for a couple more!

Anyone familiar with the differences between or preferences for the zip line activity in PV or Cabo? It appears that the Cabo one is an hour longer, but they both are the same price.

We are all checked in too with an 11:00 check in time too. I am also excited that I could get a Palo brunch and High tea. Dd didn't want to stay in the Kids Club by herself last Feb. If she feels the same way in Nov, both ds' will be staying with her in the Club instead of the Lab while my friends and I are at Palo! LOL

I'm a newbie to these posts. What is the FE group?

 

[mug318ca]

In short... Near the cabin doors there is a fish on the wall. People hang fabric pouches from the fish and they are called Fish Extenders (FE). Purpose being to hold notes, nick knacks from folks or CM's while you are out enjoying the cruise. An FE "group" is a group of people who get together and agree to exchange gifts amongst each other much like a secret Santa. So, potentially, each day of the cruise you will arrive back at your cabin and be greeted by interesting gifts left in your Fish Extender. Obviously, if you receive gifts, you are expected to provide gifts. A search of this board will give you more specifics.

We have been planning this trip for at least 2 years and I can't believe that it is less than 3 months away. I made our Palo reservations and nursery reservations for our excursions as well.

I am almost done with FE gifts for those who are on the list thus far. SOOOOOOOOO excited to drive to a port, excited that we are sharing our love of Disney and love of cruising with my favorite brother and sister in law and our favorite niece and nephews too.

As far as rooms go:
Wests4Disney #2579
DW-37-Christy
DH-40-David
DS 13m-Luke
DD-12-Samantha, "Sammy"

Wests4Disney-2 #2581
BIL-37-R
SIL-34-R
DS-8-E
DD-3-I
Since their initials are the same on their FE, the top one is for the husband, since he is older and then the second R is for my SIL.

Wests4Disney-3 #2577
DS-18-M
DS-15-Matthew, "Matt"
Since their initials are the same on their FE, the top one is for the my nephew, since he is older and then the second M is for Matt, my son.

My SIL was concerned about putting the names out there, so I have respected her request. The ones with names are my family .

Are we going to PM ChicoGirl with our room numbers, so we know where we are delivering??? Are we going to do a meet and greet? I was looking on some of the other FE groups and they had meet and greets and such.

This is my 5th Disney Cruise, but my first FE, and I am pretty excited about all of it.

 

[Chicogirl]

Thanks, that is great west4disney. Perfect. Your 3 cabins and other with more then one room is what I've been waiting for. Now I'm almost done packaging all the gifts.

Don't worry about names, I was more interested about how meny in each cabin and ages. So the right gifts went to the right room.

So for me..

I am not familiar with the two but we have done zip lines in both PV and Cabo. The one in PV was zip line through the trees and over streams. The one in Cabo was zip line over desert canyons and streams. I see it as what you want to see while you are zipping along.

Please remove us from the FE list. We had to change the dates on our cruise. Have a great time without us!!!

Hello fellow Mexican Cruisers. I am sorry to join this site so late, but believe it or not, my family and I just returned from the Disney Magic Med. Cruise in Europe. It was unbelivable, but I am now ready to focous on our fantastic Thanksgiving adventure.

I hope it is not too late to join the FE list. I would really love to do it.

What's wrong Mug381ca?

What's wrong Mug381ca?

There seems to be a lot of DD's getting together and not many DS's.

My DGS will be all alone. Boys don't really seem to care about these things anyway. He was alone during our 5-day Med cruise last year and didn't seem to mind. Just don't want him to miss out on anything.

No worries here.
