[SosaDisneyFamily]

We'll be there as well! Myself, DH and our two boys, who will be 13 and 10. We have been on one cruise back in 2009 and the boys have been begging to go on another ever since. I'm so excited it's finally going to happen. Now I just have to decide when to tell the boys.

I have a ds 12 sailing and is looking forward to making new friends..

I've never decorated the door myself, but I saw a lot of good door magnets on Etsy.com while I was shopping for an FE.

I think this link will get you there, but if it doesn't just go to Etsy and search "Disney Cruise Magnet": http://www.etsy.com/search?q=disney cruise magnet&view_type=gallery&ship_to=US&ref=auto1

Best,

You can make your magnets at home. You find pics or request disigners to make some pics for you. Once you have that you can purchase magnet sheets from staples or other store. The magnet sheets go in your printer like paper and you print your photo on it to make the door magnets. I hope this helps.

 

[twinsmom328]

Thank you both!!


Can't WAIT!!!!

 

[Lady Duchess]

You also can get transfer sheets that you can print on, the transfer sheets will allow you to transfer the pic on to a t-shirt if you wanted to make some special shirts

I was just as confused about all this on my first cruise.
I'm not sure if you're asking about FE or door magnets, but you should see both in the pictures here: http://suchthespot.com/2011/01/disney-cruise-how-to-fish-extender/

Door Magnets: Stateroom doors are magnetic so people will print custom magnets on magnetic paper and/or purchase magnets online to decorate their stateroom door. Etsy.com has some good Disney cruise magnets specifically for the stateroom door (see link in my previous post).

Fish Extender: Set of pockets hung off the fish next to each stateroom door to extend it (hence the name). Some people make their own FE and others buy them (again Etsy.com is a good place to find them). Everyone who signs up to participate brings gifts for the other staterooms (handmade or purchased) and receives gifts in their FEs in return.
This groups FE thread with more information is here: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3072189

Hope this helps!

I was smiling reading all the posts about the magnets and decorating. We love decorating our doors with the magnets and it helps to find the cabin easier too. Since this cruise will be a girls trip for me, one of my BFF's is so excited about the magnets since she has seen my families trip pictures and can't wait to to do it. It's the little things, you know!

I'm so stinkin' anxious to see what cabin we get and those that are waiting I'm sure you are too!

We cruise to Alaska in two months (which is coming up fast!) and I need to get my self in gear and get ready for that. Since I've sailed out of Port Canaveral 3 times now I feel prepared for our Sept cruise, but the Alaska trip is a whole new ball game. We are very excited but it's a different type of adventure.

Have a great weekend,
Heather

OMG - too cool! We are on the 6/17 sailing. My DS doesn't get out of school until 6/7 so we couldn't go earlier -boohoo.

I'm so excited for you and please do post back!! I'm really eager to read some updates from the earlier sailings.

It's a Small Dis World After-All!

I would be more than happy to gush about my trip once I'm back. Lol. It will be fun to compaire notes with someone doing the same cruise this year
Which on that note, I presume someone from your cruise has already discovered and shared that they're not doing a Pirate night on the Alaska cruises anymore? It has been replaced by a Pixar night instead.

Hi Marise! Yes, small DIS world I can't wait for you to go and then come tell me all about it! Yes, isn't that an interesting "rumor about no more Pirate Night (or just our cruise?) and replacing with Pixar? On our sailing the Monsters University will PreMear at sea so I assumed that was the reason why but for all sailings? Wow. It would be nice to know ahead so we know if we need our pirate gear or not!

Heather!!

And I totally can’t wait to come back and talk all about it! Lol

My understanding is that they’re doing that substitution on all the Alaska cruises only because Alaska law doesn’t allow the fireworks at sea. I’m 90% certain that this substitution will take place as I confirmed the information with Disney.

Hmmm… I hadn’t heard of ‘Monsters University’. Great movie name though, totally peeks my interest! We’re hoping they’ll be showing Iron Man 3 since that will have just come out the week before we cruise.

Clearly you'll be able to give me an inside scoop after you return!!

Yep - you shouldn't have any issue with seeing Iron Man 3 since it's a Marvel movie and Disney owns them or has a major stake in them. I was able to see the Avengers on the Fantasy and I was *just* telling my DH last night - no need to see Iron Man 3 in the theaters, let's save a few $$ and see in on the ship! It'll probably still be playing for the 9/1 cruise too
