From WDW to DL With Love - January 06, 2011 part 5

[Tigfanjeff]

To change the subject- when they christened the Dream there was a radio station there doing some Disney trivia. A friend of mine went and one question was = What is the name of Donald Duck's sister? Not Daisy- that the girlfriend. Does anyone know the answer to this question.

Per Donald it's Dumbella. Per the rest of the world, its Della.

Triva answer:
In the original H,D and L short 'Donald's Nephews', his sister is called Dumbella but in comic books featuring the character, her name is Della Thelma Duck. She and Donald are twins.

If anyone knows who the parents of those kids in the video are, they should send them a link to the YouTube site, this thread and the Dis Board thread entitled "Parent! Control your teenagers".

If I was the parent I would ABSOLUTELY want to know about it . . . but something tells me the parents probably won't be too surprised about finding out and probably already know their kids have a major immaturity issue.

The kids don't look healthy either physically or emotionally...sad.

I have already notified the parents, but I think they are mostly lurkers, so no knowing when they will see the message.

I am appealing to all of you on here to please write a letter or email to DCL. We need to let them know about this and that we would like to see some action taken against these young men. Our kids are able to go on U-tube and see and hear these horrible videos. I already know this kids email and phone number so I am sure disney does too. If enough of us send letters then they will be more likely to take action. I am asking them to contact U-tube to have these deleted and to make these kids accountable for their actions, if nothing else to at very least ban them from future Disney cruises.

thank you to everyone for the answer to who is Donald Duck's sisiter. I knew I would get an answer from a Disboarder.

I have downloaded the videos and have them safely on my computer. Well I am still working on the last one now. If they delete them, then no problem.. I have a good copy!
I don't think their parents would leave them home alone. Can you imagine the trouble they will get into with mom and dad gone for 2 weeks?

If disney does not do something it will open the doors for more problems onboard and they will lose a lot of regular cruisers. It will also make for bad publicity for them.

Maybe they will be so embarrassed THEY wont come either!!

I had the pleasure of riding in the elevator with these young "gentlemen". They were complaining this cruise was lame. And were talking about the young ladies they were texting and the "drama" being way worse on this cruise than the TA. so it appears they cruise the longer cruises. What jerks.

I love the post on you tube that says DCL is taking a look at these videos. I only hope that is true.

Does anyone know who his parents are? I totally agree - send the link on to them.

Unbelievable. I do hope they leave this young man home from now on. But can you imagine him home alone without his parents??

Well from what my 2 kids who've worked with disney say, they may or may not be looking at it. kinda depends on who etc. Unfortunately

Would absolutely do this. but send to whom? I've heard for years that sending something to "WDW" or to "DCL" is like sending something to never never land - it may or may not get to the right people. Who would we send one to? address would be great Jill.

I want to send one to reservations and stuff at WDW but dont know how to address it either....

I think it has all been dealt with now. Many people have contacted DCL and they said things are being done.

The boy's parents are lovely people and will be horrified. It could be any of us really.

Let's leave it now shall we?

 

[peterpanstout]

Well said Granmaz!!! Thank you for that! This whole thing is just sad. I feel for the parents.

Agreed! I thought about that as I was watching the videos. My dd was out until after 1am every night of the cruise and we assumed she was in the Vibe, but honestly we didn't actually KNOW it to be the case. I trust her and I was pretty darned sure she was where she was supposed to be, but really, if she wanted to be out drinking and carrying on, we wouldn't necessarily have known it.

I feel just awful for these parents, with the evidence of their kids' bad behavior being exposed in such a public way. How humiliating! (But I'm glad it was, because sometimes that's what it takes! I always pray, "Lord, if my kids are going to do something wrong, please let them get caught!")

In case anyone had magnets stolen off their doors, because I know we had stuff stolen off of ours....

I wish there was a way to report this person to DCL. There are seven videos posted on youtube.

Y'all were smart to to download them. They have "been removed by the user". Just got home from the Dream and happened to jump on here to read this. Sad part is, I think we saw some of the stuff you all were talking about. Unmentionables were strewn about our floor. But I was on deck 5 aft so not too much I hope. As I put stuff away, I will come to see if anything of mine (other than my pen) was taken.

Hi Everyone

I think that I was the first one from our cruise to come across these videos last night when i was searching for videos from our cruise. I contacted a tablemate from the cruise that had magnets taken to look at the video. She posted on here to let everyone else know as well. I was very disgusted to see these videos on you tube. I have contacted Joel from guest services directly. We had an email from him this past week following up on an issue we had on our cruise, so I figured it was a good place to start with contacting DCL. DCL is currently lookin at putting cameras into the hallways and I think this is a very good reason as to why they should. My main concern with contacting DCL was to make them aware of these videos but also I was concerned about what things these guys may have done during this cruise that are not on the video. DCL may have some unresolved issues from our cruise that maybe these kids are to be looked at for. I truely hope not but ya never know and if there is and they are stupid enough to post public videos like they did than they deserve to hbe questioned. These people in the video are old enough to be held accountable for their actions. If nothing else I hope that disney at least pulls the videos and maybe a "nice"stern letter written to them stating that this won't be tolerated. I know that if I see these brats on my next cruise, I will be making DCL aware of what they were like on this cruise. I will post what Joel comes back to me with for information. Thanks to everyone for contacting DCL as we all LOVE our ships too much to put up with this grabage.

Hi All!

Did anyone happen to bring home an extra personal navigator for January 18th? I finally unpacked last night and I am missing just that one. Sigh. I ended up with extras for some other days and I am willing to trade/beg/barter but not steal one for the 18th. Heck, I'll even pay someone Or how about a color copy---that will do for my personal archives Please PM me if this is possible. Thanks!

It has been difficult getting back into a routine! I miss the ship and I miss you all!

 

[granmaz]

Susan, we are still on vacation. We are so blessed this year, and everywhere we have been has had good weather apart from Castaway Cay, and that didn't affect us personally and the cool final cruise day. We just can't believe it is all continuing here in Florida. Last year we spent 6 weeks here Feb/March and it was cold every single day, very cold!

It was very hard having to actually pay cash for food and the like though!

 

[SoothyMom]

I am joining the smugmug photo group. I have loads of pictures from the wedding that have all the peeps that were at our vow renewal.

 

[A Litle Pixie Dust]

I am sorry for the parents that this video was posted - but it probably explains how I went to bed on the 20th with 2 DVC magnets and woke up to 4on my door on the 21st!...glad I didn't touch them!

I miss all of you! We leave again in 6 weeks and it just won't be the same!

 

[PHILCT]

JFYI:

The Youtube poster of the offensive videos, pulled them, and left "kind" of an apology in his comments on his Youtube Channel.

I suspect he will kill his Channel next.

He probably had no idea that people copy Youtube videos with websites like KEEPVID

FYI all...the head of DCL contacted a DISer who sent him links to the videos this morning while they were still up. He was handling the situation. This was posted over on the Unplugged forum.

I am happy to see these videos are no longer on youtube. I knew Disney would handle it.

As for as the parent go, I also feel bad for them but on the other hand if we let kids get away with this kind of stuff because we feel sorry for the parents then what would our world be like? I don't think they should be arrested, just be accountable for their actions. It looks like they are showing some accountability by the apology. I also think the boys should be ban from future cruises until they are at least 25 yrs old. Hopefully by then they will be a bit more mature. Does it sound bad that I do not want them on my cruise with my teenage grand-daughters? Well that is my opinion and if I find out they are on one of my cruises I would cancel it.
enough venting...

It is really cold and icy here and I hope everyone is warm and safe.

 

[RRBB]

Kids are going to be out school for the 3rd day in a row because of this winter mess. It's not supposed to get this cold in north Texas! I want back on a Disney ship, floating around the Caribbean!!!
