DCP: The Drive to Orlando Day 1

Today is the day! My mom and I started our journey to Orlando! We had to go back to driving because of complications with the truck company. I was kind of upset but the drive today wasn’t that bad!

We left our house at 8am and drove 8hrs to Charleston, NC. We split the drive up by stopping every 3 hrs. This made the ride seem more bearable because we weren’t driving straight through. I sadly didn’t take any pictures today because the majority of the car ride was trees, farmland, and mountains. Talk about boring. We drove through Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, and North Carolina. Once we went to North Carolina the scenery was so pretty but I was just way too tired to take pictures.

Tomorrow we are driving through North Carolina and along the coast of Georgia. Then we will be in Florida! I am positive the scenery will be a lot better tomorrow so I will be taking a lot of pictures.

Not a whole lot happened today. Tomorrow is when all the excitement starts. When we arrive in Florida we will be staying in Pop Century, which is on Disney World property. We should get there around 6-6:30. Depending on how we feel, we might grab something to eat at one of the restaurants in Disney. Afterwards, all of my roommates I met, before we had to split upL, are having a get together. It’s in a girls named Christine’s hotel room. She is staying at the same hotel as me so I won’t have to go far.

On Monday there will be a lot of exciting things going on. Besides it being check-in day, I will get to know where I am living, know where I am working AND I will meet my other unknown roommates. Next week I will have a housing meeting, something called casting, and my first official day of working for Walt Disney World. That day is called traditions and is such an exciting day because after you go through it, you can official go “play” in the parks. People normally have traditions on Thursday or Friday. After I have traditions, I will start training for my role.

Monday is also when I will get my schedule for the rest of the week and I will get my training schedule. I can’t believe I am two short days away from achieving a dream I have had since I was little J I am so excited and cannot wait!
