First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[kab407]

Scoot over, kiddo.... come sit right over here by me. I share desserts too...... and my ressie says "second" seating, is that the same as "late" seating??? I'm SO ignorant of cruising stuff........

Hi Debbie,

Thank you for the kind invitation.

Yes, second seating = late seating = the seating that John, Kevin, Bawb and the lovely Dianer are at.

Late seating means longer happy hour!

I gotta get a countdown ticker.

 

[kab407]

Congratulations for booking! That is awesome! I might be crazy for saying this, but at the rate us DIS Unplugged listeners are booking we may own the Wonder come May 10th 2009!

I really don't think the number us Disers on the Wonder is going to be an issue. With the future President of the US, Bawb, as part of this group, the CM on the Wonder will be falling over us!

Bawb - are you in the Walt or Roy Suite? I understand if you cannot disclose. National security and all.......

Tracy, have the Secret Service booked their rooms yet?

Wow- never thought of it like that. I KNEW I liked late seating better.

I'm sorry, I cannot divulge this information

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

This is going to be a great crew to sail with!!!!

Kathy says she has a hard time explaining to her Mom who Bawb is...

My Mother lives across the street and still isnt sure that I'm gainfully employed.

Every once in a while she asks if John and I have grocery money.

We ran into some grear Podcast listeners at the Candlelight Procession (TheBead Pirate and family) and they brought some great beads with a huge mirrored Mickey head on them. My mother spent most of the show trying to figure out why strangers recognized me and brought gifts.

She was (and is ) still reeling that someone wanted Bawb's autograph.

So for all of you having a hard time explaining that you are going on a cruise with strangers....please realize that we are having the same conversation from the other side.

Mom - "These people listen to you on the radio?"
Me - "Well...not really the radio. We do this through the internet and they download us onto their iPods."
Mom - "And they just listen to you talk?"
Me - "Yup"
Mom - "And they believe you?"
Me - "Apparently they do."
Mom - "So your going on vacation with them? Because they believe you?"
Me - "Ok...that works. Do you want to go with us?"
Mom - "Is the boat going to leave the dock?
Me - "Yes. It's going to the Bahamas."
Mom - "No...I can listen to you here."

That made my day....too funny

 

[fakereadhed]

Kevin, have you explained to your mom that she's famous too from your restaurant reviews?

 

[disneyholic family]

Kathy - 40-something
Traveling solo.

You think I'm going to attempt to get someone to come on this cruise with me? Please! I've got you guys hang with, eat with and drink with and you get it.
No special events other then, I'm on the DIS Unplugged Cruise. Hey isn't that special enough?
Late Seating - I'd love to link up with someone. I know how to use a knife, fork and napkin. I'll even let you taste my dessert.

This is going to be an experience.

i might be traveling alone too....not clear what i'm doing at this point..
right now i'm reserved with my husband, but whether he's able to get away for the cruise is an unknown (and to fly to the US at that time) ..
alternatively, i might take my sister, since the cruise is right before the tampa conference (on hereditary breast and ovarian cancer)....but I don't know whether she'll be up for a cruise....

but even if no one comes along, i will most certainly be on the ship
and i'm pretty sure i know how to use a knife, fork and napkin too (though i don't hold my pinky out when drinking tea)...

Can you just put her in a cabin with no windows? When the ship docks at the Bahamas you can just tell her you're going out the back door.

Welcome Heather!

After 40 some odd years, I can safely say there is no getting over Catholic Guilt. In my case, the nuns simply beat it into me. Promise your Mom you'll buy her something really nice at the duty-free shops is Nassau, say three Hail Mary's and pass your glass for a moo-gee-toe.
