ThunderCruise with Gary Vaynerchuk

(cross-posted from bub.blicio.us)

One of the many reasons I’m excited about a Wine Blogging Conference I’m attending in the Fall is that Gary V. is one of our keynotes. From what I understand, he’s as upbeat, positive, and excited in person as he is in his videos. That should be a great way to kick off our conference!

With that in mind, I wanted to tell you about Gary’s latest idea – his floating wine festival. Gary wants everyone to join him next spring on a cruise. Well, not just any cruise – the Gary Vaynerchuk ThunderCruise. If I had the money, I’d be there in a heartbeat. (Someone wants me to attend to write an article, right? Maybe?) The rates really aren’t that bad, as Gary has negotiated some discounts. The cruise is April 18-25, 2009 and includes wine events throughout the trip. The cruise is round-trip from Ft. Lauderdale, with stops on a private island, St Maarten, Antigua, and Nassau.

Yeah, I really want to go on this cruise.
