First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[Hedy]

Greetings all.
I realized I needed to check in with you to relay a story today.

I found myself looking at a menu for a potential pre-cruise port meal, when it hit me:
I'm not looking at menus for this weekend. I'm not looking at menus for my trip to WDW in August. I'm not even looking at menus for my trip to Vegas in late 08. I'm looking at menu for something related to my cruise in 09.

Um, help?

I may be joining the pool tour. How long to cover both the starboard and port sides? Will there refreshment stops? And most importantly, will we get a pin after the tour?

I'm giving it at least 1 hour for the starboard side and probably 1:15 for the port side There will absolutely be refreshment stops, bring your Key to the World card! I'll have to check and see if there will be a pin after the tour.

And when the time comes, I want to talk about doing one of the tours everyone has been talking about for either before or after the cruise. Anyone want to join us?

Which tour would that be? We will be staying after the cruise for a while so we may be interested in doing a tour.

I LOVE our DVC! Welcome Home! Nothing I thought we'd ever do, but so glad we did.

I haven't decided yet - on the email show this week, they talked about the backstage magic, the animal kingdom tour, and some other tours that sounded really cool. We've done the Keys to the Kingdom but that's it. And the Segway Tours sounded cool too! I just thought it would be neat if we got a bunch of us together to do a tour.

That is so awesome! I'm jealous!!! Where is home??? Of course, my husband just assumes that since you are DVC that you must have bought into the Boardwalk. I did explain to him that there other DVC's out there but he hear any of that.

Congrats, Tracy! I am glad the process is done and you are now *members*! It is the best purchase we have ever made, and I am sure you'll agree!

I has been a long process. When my mom passed away in August, we decided to use what she left us to purchase the DVC. At the same time, some friends let us know they were selling because they were getting a divorce. I'm sure this goes much faster normally, but we feel like it's been an endless rollercoaster for the past few months. Made a lot of sense to do this once we figured the numbers a bit. It wasn't enough for me to see that the "price" on the rooms would be less, it was more the comparison to the type of rooms we could get for that amount and where we usually like to stay that convinced us.

Congratualations Tracy and Welcome Home! As Two-Foxes already said it was the best purchase we've ever made as well. It's enabled us to travel to Walt Disney World more often than if we did not have our membership. It's truly a wonderful program.

 

[winotracy]

Did anyone notice we have THREE couples celebrating 15 years on this sailing?

 

[chirurgeon]

OK, DisRadio is not helping with the wait for the cruise. They started playing music from the cruise ships and the sail away parties and all of a sudden I was sitting at my desk wishing the next 14 1/2 months would be gone and I was starting to get ready for my cruise. And then I started trying to plan things again. Like where I want to stay the night before the cruise. If a bunch of us would want to meet somewhere that night (Illuminations came to mind, but I'm not thinking about it too much )

Less than 15 months till the cruise, but I just have to keep thinking about my trip in December.

Everyone keep thinking NO STRIKE for Verizon for me. Please.

I keep thinking about what spa treatments I want to schedule. UGGGGHHH!!!! I want my hot stone massage NOW!!!!! The agony of having to wait 14 more months is killing me. It's like I am in the 5th grade waiting for summer vacation to start.

Guess I should put on my big girl pants and go do my laundry instead. Being a grown up sucks!!!

 

[Disneybridein2k3]

I'm right there with ya on that one Tonya! I guess I've been talking about it too much because DH got me a giftcard for a local day spa - nice, but not the same. And I'd say he just doesn't understand but I know he does because he is looking as forward to this cruise as I am (well, maybe not quite as much, but close!) I think it would help if I had a trip to Disney planned in the meantime, but we don't. Now, where DID I put those big girl panties???????
