What is a Fish Extender? This is an optional gift exchange similar to a Secret Santa between a group of 10 cabins or so. It's called a Fish Extender because you hang your basket to gather gifts on your door's fish hook. This is not an activity organized by Disney, but by cruise passengers, and it's very popular on Disney Cruises. So, how do you get involved in this gift exchange?

Going on a Disney cruise is a great way to escape the long, chilly winter. I didn't think twice about booking my family a Caribbean cruise this past January. My oldest daughter was studying the Mayans and learning Spanish at school, so a cruise stopping in Progreso, Mexico was the perfect fit. My husband and I surprised the girls with the trip on Christmas and sailed out of Galveston, Texas on the Disney Magic three weeks later.
