First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[scarlett873]

We're doing a booze run, but we'll probably do it Saturday. We're hoping to get the earliest flight that SW has coming into Orlando from Indy so i'm assuming that our room won't be ready for us that early, so we'll do our booze run on the way to the Dolphin from the airport and then head to DisneyQuest. At least that's the plan today...


I'm sure it'll change 475,000 times between now and then though!

Hey all, the internet has been bad for posting. Posted something earlier but you didn't get it. Today is the big day and we are having a blast. More later. Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I had some great ones today!

 

[Dodie]

OOOOH!!! A Tracy appearance! Happy Birthday, Tracy!

 

[pershing]

Great to hear from you Tracy!

I think it's gonna get a little bumpy for you soon!

I swear we are all on the same wave length today! I was just thinking about how we are flying in on Friday Night. And how much of a soda fiend my son is! I swear I could spend a fortune in the parks just on his soda buying! So, I was thinking about stopping somewhere Friday night, while I still had the rental car, and picking up soda and ...... 'stuff' for me to bring on the boat. Not to mention a few snacks for the room at the Dolphin.

We fly in late though, like 9:30 PM. Does anyone know someplace really safe we can stop that late between the airport and Disney?

I am also a soda fiend but did you know that soda is free on the boat, unless it's ordered from a bar or room service. That might leave you more money for "other" things

I remember when soda was NOT free on the boat and I had to buy him a refillable cup. (Guess that's a collector item now!) I was so glad it became free after our first cruise.

Well I still have 2 whole days of his soda drinking to contend with. So, making a stop to pick up that, cereal, milk (so I don't have to buy breakfast) is still a good idea for me.

I just don't know the off Disney area that well. Only the Publix or Goodings that's right outside the gate and is pricey. I want a safe Publix or WinnDixie to stop at between MCO and the Dolphin.

 

[DVCsince02]

MY DH prefers Pepsi vs. Coke, so I may need a 6 pack of that also.

 

[lttlmc3]

If I don't have a diet coke in the morning, I'm EVIL!! It's to me what coffee is to other people. I'll be sure to bring some on the boat so I don't kill my poor friend who is coming with me!

 

[pershing]

Ok, just listened to the podcast! And they read my mind as usual! I found out from the podcast that there is a WinnDixie further down from that Goodings I was talking about outside the gate.

I checked it's hours and it does close at 12 midnight. So, it will depend on how well we get off the flight and get the rental car, whether we make it it time or not.

I think I can turn the National Rental car into the Dolphin's Valet when we get there. A couple years ago we were staying at the Swan and I fully expected to pay for parking for my National rental car cause the National rental car desk in the lobby was closed, but the Dolphin's Valet said they could take the car/paperwork and turn it in for me. Hopes that's still the case.

I know I know, I'm planning when I'm gonna buy soda 8 months from now. But with nothing else to plan, my inner obsessive vacation planner is digging up this minutia to dwell on. I REALLY want us to overplan where we are gonna meet pre-cruise, but I'm squelching it in order not to drive everyone else crazy!

I hope you make it in time. If I was going to be there on Friday I would offer to make the grocery run for you.

I am the same way! I'd love to live up to the bad girl rep and say my favorite drink was something liquorfied.... but Diet Coke rules my world......you don't even know how far this crack addiction goes........

We just stayed at the Staybridge Suites next to this. It was fairly nice. Unless this is the place that Julie thinks smells bad......then it was ok (didn't notice any smells ). There's an ABC Liquors right outside in an outer lot....... not that you'll need it or anything.....


I'm just sayin'.......

Diet Coke, lemme say this with out offending... but EW. Life is all about Mt. Dew

And back on some of the topics...

We plan on making it down probably the friday night before, late (driving) to have all day (mostly) on Sat. "Yes hello, Johnson's liquor store... well we do pay our bills don't we" I dunno about Doing Disney Quest, I am just not a fan... I am pro fireworks and dole whip on the Poly Beach (so that late comers don't have to burn a park ticket) But still not sure about the adult late night activity... With out the AC, I figure something will jump out and up to fill the void.

Mt. Dew is my morning coffee.

 

[scarlett873]

Mountain Dew....EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

Diet Coke...YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM!
(even better with a splash o' rum )

 

[froggy5657]

I have to agree, Diet Coke EW. It is worse for you than regular coke so many chemicals

I like Coke

DIET COKE HATE SPEECH!!! What is the world coming to (as I have another sip of my diet coke)?

 

[UrsulasShadow]

Javajavajavajavajavajavajavajava.......

Soda's for wimps.

 

[chirurgeon]

Sorry, never learned to like coffee. My caffeine intake preference is Pepsi. I Suppose I will have to make a grocery stop to pick some up if I want any on the cruise. But they do have free Coke on the ship. HHHMMM. I will make that decision later.
