Hadn't been here in a while, and just saw that we had new people!

So looking forward to this! I would love to do a FE, as well as a Meet & Greet!

I just put the deposit down for this cruise. My sister is Solveig.

I cannot tell you how excited I am to be going on our 1st Disney Cruise. I cannot believe my dh actually agreed to it as I have not converted him into a lover of all things Disney yet. So, let the planning begin.

We are a family of 5- dh & I, dd13, ds10, and dd7 -at time of sailing.
I definitely want to be a part of the fish extenders and I already have a list going as to what I want to make for ya'lls precious families.

I know it is months away but lets keep in touch and share in the excitement.

My fiance and I are thinking about booking this cruise for our honeymoon. We get married in Disney on 11/17/2012 so the date is perfect. If we do, this will be our first cruise. Well, actually Thomas is in the Navy and currently deployed...so he's on a 7 month cruise...but this will be my first cruise and his first leisure cruise!

So excited that the calendar has converted to the year 2012...just means our Disney cruise is closer! Can't wait!!

Count us in! First time DCLers and we just booked yesterday! Me, DH, DD8 & DS5 (at sailing) & DSis (everydaymathchick here on the Dis) can't wait!

Hello-

We will be onboard as well. Your sis has done some disigns for me in the past. Love her work.

Welcome onboard your first Disney cruise

Booked this cruise back in July. Just popping in because still busy getting ready for the 2 prior cruises.

It will be my family plus 5 other families. This will be the first Disney cruise for the 5 families. They are not on the boards....yet. I didn't want to overwhelm them yet. This is an addictive group

 

[txmommy34]

Count us in! Texasmommy, you will have more fellow Texans on the ship.

Hooray for Texans! We're in DFW, and while I know it's too early to book airfare, it's outrageous from here to MCO! Crossing our fingers it will come down. What part of TX are you from?

Thanks! Joanna does great work, doesn't she?

Everyone--Is it too early to get a list going for Fish Extender? I want to get started collecting my materials, so we can craft away this summer! (I like to buy stuff little by little as I have JoAnn's & Michael's coupons.)

I've started a list of everyone who's checked in & said they are interested in FE. Do we start another thread or is Solveig around somewhere to edit the original one?

 

[Dsnymouse]

Texasmommy - We are in Flower Mound/Argyle area. As far as airfare, I have been watching Spirit and Frontier just opened a MCO trip.
As for Fish Extenders, I would love to be apart of it. Do we just list our cabin number here?

Count in more Texans! Myself, DH, and DS 11 are from San Antonio and this will be our first Disney cruise. We would love to participate in Fish Extenders and any Meet and Greets!

Hi all!!!
We changed our dates and are now on this cruise as well. Great deal on air from JetBlue today!! Would love to participate in the FE as well as a meet and greet. This is our 4th Disney cruise in as many years and we can't wait.

I'm anxiously awaiting May 21 when Southwest opens their schedule to include Thanksgiving week! We are also considering driving to Austin & flying from there, as SW flights are quite a bit cheaper from there this summer.

Well, this could be the Lone Star Cruise, huh? Howdy & welcome!

Yay! Looking forward to meeting everyone!

I don't know the first thing about organizing a FE, since this is our first cruise. Any experienced cruisers want to step in here to organize?

 

[Solveig]

7 months til we set sail.

 

[Alexhinson]

We are so excited about this cruise and being a part of this group! it will be myself, dh, dd10, and ds8. We would love to do the fish extender. Whoever organizes please count us in. Not really sure how it works. Thanks!

 

[goofystitchfan]

I have participated in 3 FE's before, however have never been "in charge". I will be happy to take it on if you all would like me to. I would need you to inbox me the following information

DIS name
Cabin #
Names of all traveling parties and ages of any kids
if there are any allergies
ohh.... also an email address

Thank you and I can't wait~

Thank you for agreeing to organize this! I'll inbox you right now!

Thank you Goofystitch! Sent you our information, only 6 months to go!!

 

[goofystitchfan]

Hi everyone
Wanted to check in with you.... I know our trip is still a way off, but wanted to just mention that I have heard from 2 families (besides mine) who are interested in being a part of the FE. I will say that the cut off will be the beginning of November (November 1) so that anyone who is making items has enought time. If you have questions or are still on the fence... we would love to have you.

 

[txmommy34]

Can't believe we are less than 6 months out!

This thread has been kind of slow, so I thought I'd throw out a topic to see if we can get some chatter going.

What are you (and your family members) most looking forward to in November?

I can't wait to try out the Rainforest Room. Randy (DH) really wants to try the Goofy Golf. Josh (DS5) is dying to ride the AquaDuck and Katelyn (DD8) can't decide between exploring the kids club and snorkeling at Castaway Cay.

Your turn! Let's help each other get excited!

Thanks j
This will be our 4th Disney Cruise, so we are looking forward to relaxing and trying out some things we didn't get to do last time.
DS Andrew (11) wants to try something new this time - each day one of us picks something for us all to do. My boys rode the AquaDuck for the first time in November and loved it. Maybe I will get the courage this time (scared of heights ) We have no plans to get off the ship. It is so nice to have the whole place to ourselves. If anyone is thinking about the Sea Lion excursion in Nassau, I totally recommend it. It was amazing

Have you been on a 3 night before? I'm wondering how many people get off in Nassau. We are planning to stay on board that day. My mom is worried there won't be anything to do & I'm worried too many other people will have the same idea.
