First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Take Three

[jeanigor]

Oh, did I mention the beautiful blue skies?

I'll trade you. We have white skies. Bright white skies. With lots of puffy pretty clouds. You just have to ignore the snowflakes.

 

[shellyminnie]

Yep, just me and Chris.

THat's what I thought. I was just making sure because my backseat will only hold 3 people!!

We love ME. We have never had any problems with it at all. I'm completely bummed that we can't use it for our Dolphin stay. That is the only drawback to the Dolphin. So, much of a drawback, we've considered not staying there.

I agree, love ME and never have had a problem no matter what time of the year we use it. We are staying at the Dolphin but fortunately have frinds in the area who will give us a lift from and to the airport, otherwise not sure I would want to stay at Dolphin. I am curious to see if the Dolphin lives up to all the hype.

I think I need a spreadsheet to figure out transportation...

While I like the idea of having our own car for getting around...this trip is all about spoiling myself and DH. He's worked very hard to get to where he is today and to finally have the support that he needed at home to get his bachelor's degree. I want to spoil him as best I can!! He graduates with his bachelor's degree in April.

So anyway...I don't want to have to worry about driving from point A to point B. I'm starting to like the idea of the towncar or limo transfers.

So Jen...you and Chris would like to join us on the run from the airport to the hotel, right? Todd...How about you?

I checked FL Tours and we could get a limo for $200 and that's based on a roundtrip ride, of course, for 5 people. We could figure out how to divide the costs up since we all wouldn't be going back and forth.

Todd...we're looking at flying home on Saturday...just not sure what time yet. The earliest we would fly home would probably be about noon. How early would you be leaving?

 

[ADP]

We are arriving into Orlando on 5/9 at 9:45AM. Our plan is to take ME to the Beach Club Villas. We are departing in the afternoon of 5/16 from AKV via ME. I'd sure love to stay until Sunday, 5/17. It woudln't be fair to our Daughter who will probably have a load of make-up work to complete for the next week of school.

 

[DVCsince02]

Brandie, that's fine with me. Just want to make a liquor stop before the hotel. Let me know what you decide.

 

[klam_chowder]

Just checking to see if anyone's flights are at about the same time as ours and wants to share a ride either from/to the airport/Dolphin, with DH and I.

***
Todd, thx a mint for sharing your findings. Glad to hear everyone else is doing well.

AskTracy: what's "the window" for celebrations on the cruise? DH's b'day is about 3 weeks out of the cruise dates and I'm not sure if that's stretching it. If it is, no worries...just curious as I like to keep the vacation gatekeeper happy

cheers,

Nope - Southwest out of Midway

 

[aaronmckie]

Nope - Southwest out of Midway

Lol, how weird, as both our flights land the exact same time (and both from different Chicago airports, to boot)... we'll race to see who's plane lands fastest!

 

[shellyminnie]

Well gee - I don't know . . . Let me think . . .










Sure why not!!!
