Fish extenders have an age wow that is mean hey i may be 39 soon to be 40 but i wanna open my door and find somthing in mine ha ha i guess it all depends on who and age i got things for little kids middle aged kids and even us big kids i mean who can pass up a good surprize lol

 

[Daytonamom2]

I just saw that a few people were saying that the older teens didn't want to be included. But if I know kids (teens or older) they all like a surprize!!!! I will see what I can find. I have not left the house for a few days because Oct Bike Week was here this week. Busy Busy Lynn

Thanks Gina I'll check that out. What did you do in the past with the goodies. Some people left some at certain times? Did you do something for the adults? Thanks. I am really behind since we just decided to go. I have not even told the kids since they are in the middle of finals. Did want their minds to be somewhere else. Lynn

Lynn this is my familys first cruise i dont know the rules as far as times and all that i just thought you did it as you were comming and going i guess someone who has done this before would have to tell us that i just know i got a few diffrent things for whati though would be diffrent age groups like little squirt toys for the lil ones as well as the middle ages then i got a few diffrent pirate things for pirate night ( figured i would go with the theme ha ha ) oh wow your kids are going to be thrilled i know i send my older kids text messages each day with the count down ha ha i think i mean i know they are telling me im driving them nuts ha ha ( hey im the mom im allowed )

OK NEW QUESTION FROM ME ha ha
sorry just not too sure about all of the rules
i heard about bringing an extra duffle bag with a case of water being that you can buy a case for 5.00 here and on the boat its like double that if not more with that said..... how many bags are you allowed on board?
i know we are flying in so that means were allowed 2 bags per person
but what about on baord is there such a rule ??

 

[Daytonamom2]

Hey We posted at the same time!!! Great minds think alike!!! We have been on the wonder a few times and now this will be our third time on the Magic. But we have never been on the Western. Can't wait. The port is only about an hour and 1/2 away. Lynn

Lynn i know my kids are 21B 20B 18G 15G and 2 G yeah i had a empty nets thing happening when the first left for college ha ha i know i was telling them and they were like wow really that is kinda cool hey either way i think if its there age or not just the idea of opening your door to see if there is a surprise is fun in its self i got for the older kids sugerless gum and im looking for more ideas then again i know any kid (well my kids) all love a good water gun fight im sure my kids would be running from each others rooms doing that ha ha ha

 

[Daytonamom2]

I think it is two bags per person (it's the number of tags they give you) But I have seen lots of posts about getting extra tags when you check in your bags. I have also seen that you can preorder the water from staples and have it delivered to the boat so you do not have to pick it up. Maybe someone has done that and can give you more information.

[Daytonamom2]

Your son is at JU. I am from Jacksonville and my folks still live there. In the South side area. You are going to love the cruise. Everybody can do their own thing or everybody and stay together. Something for everyone. Can't wait to put faces with names. Lynn

I didn't mean to imply that the older kids (and adults!) aren't welcome to participate. I just wanted to get a list together of everyone who is interested so we can see how many items we would need to bring.

Hi Laura
I was going to put Frank's name down and then I saw he would be the oldest and he would have killed me. But just wait til his sister gets candy and he doesn't then it's all my fault.

Gina

That's a deal! I looked on Ebay last night and nothing came up for fish extenders so I decided to try it on my own and all the stuff to make it with can add up quickly.

Hi Laura

My DS Logan is also 14, and we may run into the same situation! He says now that he's not interested, but he may change his mind later.

It's up to you....if you want me to put down both of your kids, please let me know. I really have no clue as of right now if I need to prepare for 10 kids or 40 kids, so that's a big difference!

 

[pooh mommy]

Laura i hope i didnt offend you i was joking around about the age thing. im not too sure how this all works to be honest i just got a few doz of each thing that i picked up i figured each day i was going to put a few of the things in each one and then ha ha who ever is in that room can figth over whats inside ha ha if that is not ok or sounds wrong just let me know being that i have never done this i dont want to be doing it the wrong way or offend someone

 

[Daytonamom2]

Put both their names down
Nikki 11
Frank 14
Room 2644
I am going to work on some kind of door sign for us also.
Rhat's on the to do list.

Disney Cruise Line Announces
Onboard Airline Check-in Service


CELEBRATION, Fla. -- Disney Cruise Line strives to offer guests a hassle-free vacation experience by providing extra services, such as Disney's Magical Express, that help eliminate some of the stresses of family travel. And beginning this fall, select guests sailing with Disney Cruise Line will find their vacation experience has been made even easier with the introduction of Onboard Airline Check-In. This new service will allow qualified guests to check-in for their post-cruise flights while on board the Disney Magic or Disney Wonder, eliminating the need to do so at Orlando International Airport.

Guests participating in Onboard Airline Check-In will enjoy the ease and convenience of not having to collect their luggage upon debarkation--checked luggage will be transported directly from the ship to the guest's flight. While on their cruise, guests' boarding passes will be delivered to their staterooms the day prior to disembarkation. Upon the ship's return to Port Canaveral, participating guests can proceed directly to Customs and then to Orlando International Airport where they bypass check-in and continue straight to airport security and on to their assigned departure gate.

In order to take advantage of this service, guests will need to meet certain requirements and be booked on a domestic flight on one of the seven participating air carriers: AirTran Airways, Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines, Northwest Airlines, or United Airlines/Ted. Eligible guests will be able to enroll for Onboard Airline Check-in by completing pre-registration information received at Orlando International Airport or one of the Disney Cruise Line Hospitality Desks at the Walt Disney World Resort and turning it in during check-in at Port Canaveral.

This information was posted on another thread. I have not seen this on any other documents... I am trying to look into it.

No worries - I wasn't offended at all! I just really wanted to get a feel for how many people will be participating so I make sure I don't bring too many or too few items.

There is no right or wrong way on this - it's all what we want to do! I'm having lots of fun finding things to put in the pockets.

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Hi all,

Count us in on the Fish Extender. I'm sewing ours (if you can call my feeble attempt at putting one together "sewing"). Anyway, ours will have a pocket for each of us...not that we're expecting anything (honestly)! What I was planning on doing was just getting a few items here and there...and putting together a few of my own (scrapbook page titles, banners, etc.) and running around (er...ah...exploring) the ship with them. Whenever I find a Fish Extender I'll put a few interesting tidbits in them...all very family friendly!

Well, laundry is now done...but I have another grant to write...so I'll be by the computer nearly all night trying to get it done..... !
