Hi all! For the February 8th cruise, one of our cruisers created a spreadsheet that can be accessed from both the DIS cruise meet page and the Facebook page. On it, it lists all those that are particpating and at the top it lists all the events.....you check the ones you want to participate in, your staterooms #s, email addresses, etc... it's a great way to keep track of who is doing what. It's the first cruise we have been on that is doing this, but it sure makes it easier to see what's what! (especially when there are lots of events planned!)

It's still early days yet, but no worries, Spreads Sheets, FE sign ups ect will all be up and running soon I believe June 1st is the date we'll see some sign ups

I might need a spreadsheet to keep track of the spreadsheets as it looks like there will be so many fun activities to do on the boat. We have never done a Disney Cruise before and I never realized all the cool activities that go on. We are so looking forward to it!

I am working on my FE gifts now . I know it's early... but i just couldn't wait! And some ideas I wanted to try out. I will say that I almost burned down the kitchen yesterday with one idea. Nothing like hubby coming home from work and asking "Why does it smell like burning plastic in here??"

Happy Memorial Day Everyone !!!

I am seriously contemplating switching over to this sailing. We just recently sailed our first cruise on the Fantasy in early May. It was a 7 nt. Eastern. Our kids will be 5, 8 and 11 at the time of sailing. Do they do anything special because of it being over Halloween? I see a lot of you seem to have sailed together and on this cruise before.

We sailed the Magic during Halloween in 2010. DCL held a Trick or Treat, Costume party/contest, photo ops with the characters in costume. A few decorations here and there. I think the kid's clubs had special Halloween parties too.

Of course us Dis-ers also did our own trick or treat for the kiddos. It was much more fun than DCL's... We are planning on doing one this time as well.

It is June 1 and I am happy to announce the official opening of the Fish Extender List!

What is a Fish Extender, you ask? Check out this thread and read all about this fun way to leave little gifts for your fellow cruisers!

Check out Post One of our thread for deadlines, how to sign up, and more info and links to basics about Fish Extenders!

To sign up to participate in the Fish Extender for this cruise, please do the following:

PM Jen (nenner1) and please include the following information:

-

• Dis User Name
  
• Stateroom(s)
  
• First Names
  
• Gender and Ages of each person participating
  
• Does anyone in your stateroom have any allergies? If so, please let me know to what. Candy and treats are common FE gifts.
  
• If you would like, please include any info you think would help those personalizing gifts. Favorite Disney characters, favorite colors, sports teams, etc. are an example!

As I receive the PM's I will add participants to the master list, which will be accessible to all participants via Google Drive (link below and in Post 1). I will reply to your PM after I have added you, please do take a moment then to check out your information on the list and make sure I have everything correct!

If at any time you have any changes to participants, stateroom(s), or to remove your family from the list, please let me know ASAP via PM. I do keep up with the thread and Facebook but it is much easier to keep track of things like this via PM. And with that noted, please understand that we are very early on and things will change as we get closer to the sail date. (We will discuss groups, sizes, and if necessary: splitting as the cruise gets much closer)

The list will be organized by Dis Name and stateroom assignment, in numerical order by deck. Guarantee (GTY) rooms will be listed at the top of the list and as those room assignments start to come in, please PM me with the room info and I will add it to the proper area of the list.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask, here on the thread, via PM, or on Facebook! Fish Extenders are so much fun, I look forward to hearing from those of you who would like to participate!

Here is the link to the Fish Extender Participation List (or FE List for short). This document is only available to those with the link. If you have any trouble accessing it please let me know!

FISH EXTENDER PARTICIPATION LIST

The deadline to sign up by will be August 25, 2014.
