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

[Halloweenqueen]

I wasn't insisting they do a podcast. I was just curious. Jeesh.

 

[Beth]

Well, I've truly "flown under the radar" since finding the DIS in May 1998, but I'm still looking forward to spending a lovely evening with all of you - even though none of you know who I am!

I wasn't insisting they do a podcast. I was just curious. Jeesh.

I wasn't suggesting that you were "insisting" anything.

I was just explaining the situation we find ourselves in at this moment.

We plan on doing a show if other things don't interfere.

I'm not in panic mode... yet. But I live in Toronto, and still have not gotten my party credentials. It's three days before I leave for Orlando, and Canada Post is notoriously slow (that is, when they're not on strike). Is anyone else from Canada coming, and have you gotten your packet in the mail yet?

Pete/John/Kevin/et al: Is there a contingency plan for people who do not receive their credentials in time for the event?

We seem to have an issue with some our Canadian guests credentials being held up at customs. Some have been received but a handful have not - I am working with everyone on these.

Please feel free to write to me at John@DreamsUnlimitedTravel.com - but all I can ask at this point in time is to be patient and see what happens in the next few days.

 

[WebmasterJohn]

Nothing personal, but, are you serious? 700 people are flying to MCO ... none of them can get into WWOHP without the credentials. That's like getting invited to the White House (politics aside), but being turned away at the door. What's the point?

No flames please.

What are you talking about Steven? Of our 700 guests all but a few have received their credentials. The ones who have not all seem to be in Canada and I am working with all of them.

Have you received your credentials?

No, my statement had more to do with JCB's comment and Nikki's enthusiastic reply. I realize everyone is super busy. I remembered Pete's talk about no show Thanksgiving week. Typically there is a "no show this week" thread. There wasn't one this week, so I just built up the courage to ask.

All good.

Please accept my apologies. I have a high sarcasm quotient and meant no offense whatsoever. I would enjoy a podcast this week as much as anyone but I was just trying to put the week in perspective.

Actually, I'm hoping my Tardis is finished by then.

John has been great and we are staying in touch. I am keeping an eye on my mailbox and hoping for the best. Sometimes kizmet happens and I am going to trust that either I get them or something can be worked out. I think that people who are so dedicated to putting together a great event and an awesome Board are good people so I am sure everything will work itself out.

Looks like the weather is really nice in FL and hope that extends into the weekend - we are super excited to see WWoPH and a great group of DISers.

Has the approx. final number of people attending been posted yet?

 

[DutchsMommy]

Actually, I'm hoping my Tardis is finished by then.

Now that would be wicked. And you could actually attend the event multiple times just by adjusting your time continuum...and if you look like the doctor then I definately want to meet you!!

 

[AlexDurrani]

Yea one week till DISApalooza 2011. 4 days till the start of my trip. I can't wait. Work is a nightmare and everything is piling up on me because I will be out for DISApalooza.

See y'all in a week.

Till Then,

Sikandar "Alex" Durrani

Not feeling the solo thing this time. Anyone interested in meeting up to do a park or so?

I don't see anything wrong with your asking about the show.



I can imagine that leading up to the event and travel involved in it that some people might be nervous, anxious, worried about credentials, etc. This is a very busy time of year for everyone which adds to the stress level. Just have faith that things will go well and you will all have a wonderful time. Everyone take a deep breath! It'll be okay. You're going to the happiest place on earth!

Again, if you are a Canadian DISer and have a concern about receiving your credentials in time, please feel free to contact John at John@DreamsUnlimitedTravel.com. We still have a week until the event (give or take when people are flying into MCO) so there's some time left.

Help! Quite a while ago, someone posted about sharing a taxi to the podcast from Pop Century. I cannot find the post! The search engine just is *not* helpful. I don't know if it was this thread, or a separate thread. Nor do I remember who it was who offered! I feel REALLY stupid right about now, and I'm hoping someone can help me out...

Sayhello

 

[*NikkiBell*]

It was not this thread. I just searched through it. I believe it was a separate thread.

Thanks, Nikki. Off to hunt through the back pages, because nothing is coming up in the search engine!

Fezzes are indeed cool

Fezzes are indeed cool

So are stetsons. I wear a stetson now. Stetsons are cool.
