First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[TheBeadPirate]

Nice to be missed. Lost power for 8 days. Frustrating but nothing like what TX got. My heart goes out to those folks.


btw- I don't know Don well enough to be inside his cistern.

I missed you.

I had to go home for my uncle's funeral(more like a brother, long story) and while I was sitting there watching my weirdo family shuffling by I found myself wondering if it could be any less crappy if Jason and I were doing a running monologue.

I thought it would be far more interesting and I'm sure Tim would have loved to hear it!

They just got power back in the Louisville area and NO cable or internet yet! It's like I was back in the dark ages!


But I got to go on my first hot air balloon ride. Tim was a ballooner and his son flew his balloon with a couple others for a memorial launch.


Thanks for letting me share.


Raul said Louisville was interesting.....


Then Rick got there.

Lori, Sorry to hear about your uncle, but what a nice way to remember him in the hot air balloon.

Jason - welcome back.

Hey...it might not be that bad -- at least you know there'd be pie.

When is the earliest you can board? I can't remember what I read here SEVERAL pages ago.

Officially, 1pm. They usually start boarding though around 11:30 or noon.

 

[dpuck1998]

If I remember you couldn't even park until about 10 right?

When I was listening to the podcast last week John said they were close to running out of rooms as the Dolphin for some of the nights for the special cruise stay. If we have 50 rooms worth of people staying Saturday night and coming back to the Dolphin on Thursday, would it be possible to have our own special transportation to and from the port. I would think it would be great for us to get to the port all together. And then we can sprint to be the first in line for check in

I'm not sure about parking, but the porters won't take your luggage until then and if you have luggage, you have to wait for the porters.

Kim,
Having our own private transportations sounds great!!

Tracy,
Is this something that you/the DIS/ DU can arrange for us or do we need to set this one up by ourselves??

I think this is a good question for Kevin! I am going to say we are a bit early for planning, either by ourselves or for the DIS or DU to arrange. It is on my list to check with them when we get a bit closer.

 

[scarlett873]

We'll probably still do a rental car for our transportation. Only because we want to do a booze run when we arrive in Orlando...but I don't know that for sure yet.

Kevin may put us all into one of those open air cab vehicles they were talking about on the latest podcast! We took one of those when we were in St Thomas last year. Oh my...what an experience! We did an island tour with Sunny Liston. LOUD music pulsating from the vehicle...you could hear us coming from miles away! But oh was it fun...and scary...they drive like maniacs! Definitley needed that liquid courage (in the form of a banana daiquiri) to come back down after we made it up to the Mountain Top!


Mmmmmmmmmmmmm...banana daiquiris...expensive, but oh so goooooooood!

Did you notice that we are about 7 1/2 months away from the podcast cruise now? Inching ever closer!!!!

 

[chickie]

8 1/2 months away, and 200 pages of posts to this thread!!! And we are about to hit the 3000 post milestone!! Woo Hoo!

SEVEN and a half. Not EIGHT. This thing too far away as it is.

[calypso*a*go-go]

I'm really excited about the rumored 2010 sailings -- I guess we should hear something more concrete in just a few days, right?

 

[chickie]

Doh!
Did I really type 8 1/2 months?!? I knew what I meant to say! My fingers just didn't cooperate!

Did everyone know that Corey has so nicely put a "Podcast Cruise" event page on Facebook - some of us going on the cruise have already signed on the page - it's pretty cool, if you are on Facebook you can check it out.

 

[winotracy]

Hey everyone. Just wanted you to know that we are manually entering the pre and post nights so it does take a little longer. You will get a reminder from me after everyone is entered if I didn't get your payment.

Thanks!

That would mean another obsession for me

Woo Hoo, I got 3000!!!
