DISApalooza 2011 – DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams Unlimited Travel December Event Details

[JenniBugInPink]

This will likely land me in his big book of grievances (but since I'm probably the first entry, what the heck).

There is a highly classified youtube video of John doing the single ladies dance.

Now, I didn't say it was John Magi, did I?

I just knew it couldn't be THAT easy, LOL!

 

[OKW Lover]

Just wanted to add my comments to John's about feeling free to join in conversations. You'll find we are a very friendly group.

As John noted, some of us know each other from past events and you'll certainly see us renewing acquantainces that night - I know Val & I are looking forward to seeing a lot of our DIS friends there.

But you'll also see us striking up new friendships. As kind of "old hands" at these things we realize its important for people not to feel left out. So we will be on the lookout for wallflowers and make a point to go up and say hi.

Over the weekend the DH and I were at a family function and all DH kept saying was "She is dragging me to something at WWOHP in December."

I told him for Christmas he is going to be eating "shoe" for dinner when he finds out how much fun he is going to have!

Thanks for the feedback guys. I am sure it's going to be fun no matter what. I just like to prepare myself for situations. I don't want to "show up in a red dress if everyone else is wearing tan"...kinda thing. We are heading to the World September 15th - 27th and staying at BC, AKV, and BLT using our points for the first time but it's a family trip. The Disapalooza will be a adults only adventure for the DH and I. We can't wait!

Red dress?

Who said anything about a dress code?

Have fun in September.

Alright so my DH and I are all signed up for the event and airfare is booked. So we are heading down to FL for our first ever dismeet kinda thing. We have never ever done anything like this at all and were kinda wondering what we are getting ourselves into. Socially we are somewhat shy...we dont typically go looking for conversation but if we are spoken to we don't ignore and we engage in the conversation. I see there is a DJ...will there be a spot to dance? Do people just stand around chatting? What do they talk about? I am very nervous and excited at the same time. Any info would be helpful. Thanks guys!

I know how you feel. Trust me, everyone here is amazingly welcoming and you both will have an outstanding time. I'll look for you both to say hi. Be sure to do the same!

Jack, I think you would look great in a red dress.

Single Ladies is so 5 minutes ago - now I'm all about The Dougie!!!!

Don't know where I've been for the past year...I had no idea what The Dougie is! I had to google it...then spent the next 10 minutes dancing like a fool in my living room trying to find my "swag". Next dance lesson...The Jerk!

I'm holding out for shiny pants

 

[mytripsandraces]

I thought we were wearing our dress robes.

 

[Stinkerbe11]

It will probably get a little chilly so......Snuggies for everyone

 

[Halloweenqueen]

Harry Potter snugglies, of course! We need to get one for Pete!

The first thing I saw for one reason or another was the word halloweenqueen in the image URL link in my email notification and instantly thought.... Spooktaaaakular!!!!

I got confirmation that we got into the event, but it looks like we were charged the regular rate instead of the Dreams Unlimited rate (and I booked through them.) Who should I talk to about at?

At any rate, I am really excited about this. Both my boys are MASSIVE Harry Potter fans and I cannot wait to see the looks on their faces when I surprise them with this!!

I'll get their red dresses/shiny pants/snuggies ready!!

John will likely only refer the matter (FWD the email) back to the DU agent. Accordingly, I would email your DU agent directly. More than likely, it was a simple oversight.

Angela - Dreams Unlimited Travel clients had a different sign-up process than non-clients which automatically calculated the lower price. If you did not use the client specific form you were charged the non-client rate.

Please email me with your DU reservation ID number and your full name so I can work on getting this corrected for you.

Thanks for the advice everyone. It looks like I might have signed up in the wrong place. John fixed everything for me though.

I've glanced through this thread, but I'm new and don't really know anyone. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if very many children will be there or are these events usually pretty full of adults?

I attended DISapalooza back in 2009 and saw a big mix of both kids and adults. I think you'll find this is the case at the Harry Potter event as well. Similarly, the DIS has a very friendly bunch of people, and you will make friends easily. It helps to post on the Unplugged board before the event so you can get to know people ahead of time. I'll be sure to look for you!
