Rain Check

Unfortunately, skydiving did not happen, again! Story of my life - cancel and reschedule. Feb 24 turned out to be a rainy day. Teresa and I ended up just going to Animal Kingdom most of the day and then Hollywood Studios for closing.

I apologize for the recent lack of posts, but it’s been pretty busy on my end. I went and watched Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios with a girl I work with, Lindsey. It was a really good show. I’ve also had another Marketing You class. We have been working on personal commercials, business cards, and networking.

Animal Kingdom was really awesome. I rode Expedition Everest seven times; this is the big rollercoaster in DAK(Disney’s Animal Kingdom). We also walked around and saw most all of the animals. It’s really neat that Disney can incorporate a theme park into a zoo. After DAK, we went to Studios and walked around the park. Studios has the “Streets of America” so you can walk the streets of San Francisco and New York City. Studios also has an exhibit of Walt’s life; that was a super neat walk through. I learn something new every day about Disney it feels like. Overall, it was a very good day and I have officially been to all four parks now. It only took me a month and a half.

I also had two more training sessions. One was an efficiency class where we discussed ways to be more efficient at each position during busier times. We like to minimize wait times for guests. My other “training” was actually a CP Welcome Session. We met in an auditorium and watched videos and listened to people speak about the company. Information is always repeated several times to us, I feel like, but repetition is how we remember it.

An interesting fact I learned: THREE Magic Kingdoms can fit into Epcot, but the entire DisneyLAND can fit into Magic Kingdom’s parking lot.
