First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise 5/10/2009

[SamIAm21]

I like this idea - more likely everyone will wear it since we'll all have one. Having to order it separately will be a hassle for some, and really who ends up benefitting is all those shipping places.

Of course I like the idea of a customized shirt - maybe just an extra logo on a sleeve.

However, wearing the boarding t-shirt should be optional since we don't want to add stress to dis'ers vacations - little suzie doesn't want to wear lime green today, clumsy DH spilt coffee down his when getting ready

I don't think anyone who signs on for a podcast cruise is going to be shy about wearing their t-shirt We'll have to fend off the other passengers who'll all be clamoring to find out if they can get one too

cheers,

I really didn't think it was fair to ask the DIS, who is already planning this cruise with all its perks, to create and give a t-shirt to all of us, so I thought it would be nicer if we offered to buy our own.

I agree I wasn't seeking another freebie either I know they'll already be doling out for the on-board surprises so I'd be happy to pitch in for the shirt. I'm guessing they'd planned to give us a trinket of some sort - they could give us the t-shirt instead (of course if they didn't plan on giving us trinkets then we'd pay for the shirt, np)

I just think the distribution should be easy for people - if it comes with their cruise docs then everyone has it.

Of course, DU is prolly lovin' us now for the logistical nightmare of matching itins with shirt sizes

cheers,

Your cruise documents will come directly from DCL approximately 10 - 14 days prior to departure.

They are sent 3 day ground via UPS and can not be sent to a PO Box.

I doubt we can get them to mail out shirts.

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

Kevin -- I bet DU is soooo happy you've got all of us planning the entire event!

Hey, if we're guilty of anything -- it's having too much enthusiasm!!!

 

[DisneyKevin]

We're thrilled that y'all are excited.

We are too.

apparently recognizing tongues planted firmly in the cheek is more difficult than i thought...

Wow I cannot keep up with this thread! It flies!

Are we doing a T-shirt for the cruise? Please let me know.

We leave for WDW next weekend and I'm about to lose my mind! I just peeked in to see if I could catch up, but there's no way! I'm gonna have to try when I get back.

Pretty much

Anyone here going to the May 4 podcast taping?

 

[amyhughes]

Ok, I may have made a deal with the Devil but we probably are coming.

Still working on DH who has never entertained the idea of cruising or being at sea (doesn't like the idea so much). But, My Grandma. My Sainted, Lovely, Grandma has said she would like to come with us.

Instead of booking a Level 4 Stateroom, could we get 2 Level 9 Staterooms that are adjoining?

I am just trying to get all this in a row so when I spring it on my DH I have an answer for every possible question! So, it would be DH, DS6, DS4, DGM, and Me.

I have never cruised before, what better way to start right??? Oh just lie to me!

I would certainly consider two category 9 staterooms rather than one category 4, especially if you have three adults. Having two bathrooms would be a big plus.

I am! Are you going to be there Tracy?

Yes

 

[parrotheadlois]

Yeah, I wish it were 2008! Unfortunately, it'll have to read 2009!

oh, duh - sometimes I am just so blonde!!

But I still want a 'FIRST ANNUAL' PODCAST CRUISE SHIRT. (t-shirt, polo/golf shirt?)

Someone with talent (that would not be me) could design one through Cafe Press.

Someone could take orders (ok, I could handle that), and I guess that might involve paying for them in advance (trusting me not to abscond with the money) and having them ready for distribution, perhaps at the Swan before the cruise (and at the dock for those not going to the Swan first).

Of course, we'd have to order extras for those people who decide how attractive we all look in our wonderful matching shirts and absolutely have to have one!

and all of this cannot take place soon because I don't want to have to keep track of these shirts for OVER A YEAR!


talk among yourselves.....

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

I feel certain Corey and the gang are already working on a logo/t-shirts, etc. I'm as impatient as the rest of you...but I think we should just let them take care of it. Afterall -- it's still over a year before you'd even be wearing it! Not to mention all of us on the weight loss thread are going to have to get ours right before we go so we can be sure and get our new, smaller size!!! (Fingers and toes crossed!)

I was going to post something very similar.

We understand the excitement and anticipation....but if you can find the inner strength and patience ....I think good things will come your way.

With 13 months to go....who knows how many more people will decide to join us....and as Lisa said, who knows what size we will all be wearing 13 months from now....so ordering shirts now would just be a logistical nightmare. I know I dont want to store X number of shirts for 13 months.

I'm not trying to be a "buzz kill", I just don't want anyone to get the impression that we have forgotten about any of the details.

Trust me....the ideas bouncing around for this cruise are very, very cool.

Also...stay tuned for more details regarding the live podcast taping. We were involved in a planning meeting yesterday and this is starting to shape up into something pretty freakin' cool.

And before you ask....no...I cant give hints as the details arent finalized and things could change.

Kevin, I don't think we are going to make it, especially with tantalizing tidbits like this!

This is me----> and it's still 13 mo away.

Boy, I wish I could be at the "live" taping but we're not coming down til August. Can't wait to hear about it!

 

[parrotheadlois]

From your ears to God's that I'll be wearing a smaller size

 

[Annette_VA]

Man, Kevin's post is all abuzz with exciting teases!

I want so badly to go to the taping. That's our anniversary weekend, though. Wonder if DH would mind if I skipped down for a solo weekend to see the show?

Must be a good time for weddings - that is our anniversary too! (well, May 8th) I so wish I could be there in person for the announcements about the cruise but I guess I will have to hear about them on the podcast. I'm so excited!!!
