My Journey to Florida

As promised, a little behind the scenes video. Some footage from Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party will be up soon!

Oh, the life of a CP

"As a CP, you never really sleep. You simply nap."

They really should tell you that your sleep schedule will be nonexistent once you get here. One day you may work at 5pm, the next you may work UNTIL 4am. A third day could be an opening shift. SLEEPING IS IMPOSSIBLE. At least if you want to attempt to do some fun things. As much as I find myself wanting to sleep on my days off (how wonderful they are) I always seem to end up in a park. When else will I have free access to Disney World's parks and resorts? Sleep can wait.

In the weeks since I last posted, I have:
1- Successfully requested time off (finally!)
2-Managed to ignore DAK's existence completely (it's only open until 5)
3-Eaten myself into a coma. Enjoyed the Food and Wine Festival.
4-Spent time in the "iron toaster" aka the Contemporary Resort. I NEED to stay there before I leave.
5-Tried beignets at Port Orleans.
6-Worked the Wine and Dine half-marathon. Parking was a disaster, I froze to death, and working until 4am is never fun. However, getting paid to have a mini rave while some non-Disney music is playing could be worse.

Park traffic is starting to pick up. Magic Kingdom is currently hosting "Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party" until November 1st. Saturday October 1st also marked the 40th anniversary of the Walt Disney World Resort. Can you say CRAZINESS AND MAYHEM. Lines formed outside of the TTC around 5am. I stayed home :) Epcot is currently hosting the Food and Wine Festival. Think tapas bar but with better music and wayyy more alcohol. I believe there are at least 3 booths dedicated solely to beer. I personally enjoyed the South Korean food the most (That should surprise no one). Kimchi is basically the best thing I've ever had. Seriously.

I leave you with some photos....

I'm Duffy's #1 fan :)

Gotta love the teacups.
