These are the kinda things that make we wish I was reallly rich. I would love to blow all kinds of money on something like this (in the name of a good cause of course!;) )!

Actually - the Colubmia be a pirate auction isn't bad. It's spread among 10 guests, so you figure a winning bid might be around $300 per head. That's not bad for a once in a lifetime experience. Anyone got an empty Visa card and 9 Mouseowner friends!:worship: It does include yoru ticket, a meal at Blue Bayou and Fantasmic seating, so it's not that bad of an upcharge, right?!!

Personally, I'd prefer the private tour of PotC with Jason Surrell and then the Fantasmic Balcony seating. That one will probably go for over $4000, though; and would be split only 4 ways

Those look like some great auction items. It is to bad I spent all my money on DVC points.

Dirk, I was thinking the same thing - hey, it wouldn't be QUITE so bad if you split it with someone! :scratchch :help: :ROTFL:

I agree, the Jason Surrell one looks the coolest! I had the pleasure of meeting him on a cruise. I saw him walking around Castaway Cay drawing in a notebook and noticed his Mickey Sorcerer baseball cap - I walked over and asked him if he was Jason Surrell and he was! He was kind enough to pose for a pic -

I also picked up an autographed copy of his POTC book onboard and put our pic on the inside cover. :hyper:

BTW Dirk, I checked out your website. Wow. Very nice! :highfive:

I forgot to mention that on that same cruise my DH's client (The same one who works for McDonald's and gave us the POTC screening passes.) sat with Jason Surrell for dinner each night! A matter of fact, the WHOLE table were Imagineers with the exception of her family! They were on a different dining rotation than us and she had never even heard of him. DH told her I would have DIED if I got that table.

THAT would have been the happening table. I think you probably had the best cruise ever!
