From the Bob Varley studio, you're listening to The Diz Unplugged.

Hello everyone and welcome to The Diz Unplugged email edition for October 2nd, 2008.

I'm John Meijai, I'll be your host this week. I am joined by our Orlando team, Kevin Close,

Corey Martin, Julie Martin, Kathy Whirling, and Will Perry. And this week we've got a bunch of

also boat service to downtown Disney. Should I like elsewhere if we don't plan on having a car

or is this much a do about nothing? Thanks for your help. I love the podcast. We miss you Bob.

Well Jimmy, I happen to love Old Key West. I think that's my favorite resort out of all of them.
