Training

So Traditions was mostly a blast. We got on the bus at an ungodly hour in the dark, and were trucked over to the Disney University. There we were bombarded with Disney values and legacy until our brains exploded. ...Yes, I realize that doesn't particularly sound like fun, but the two guys who were running the class were really entertaining. It was kind of a had-to-be-there thing. Then we were handed our schedules for the next two days, and were released. So Carolane, one of my fellow Canadian arrivals, and I headed over to EPCOT to do some rides (she'd only been there once, and just walked around World Showcase) and watch the fireworks. Also to eat and drink, because the food and wine festival is on right now, so we get to eat and drink all over the world! I only grabbed an ale in the UK, though. Best part of the day: we ate lunch backstage at the Magic Kingdom. I'm not really allowed to tell you what it's like or what goes on back there, but suffice to say it's pretty awesome.

Today was more training, this time specifically for Food & Beverage, at the Disney University. Again, a bus in the dark; this time I had to walk to it, because that bus doesn't even come to my housing complex. Today was boring, tedious, and all other synonyms for Dull and Mostly Common Sense, as well as What We Already Covered Yesterday. A lot of it was training on a computer, with some of the most mind-numbingly dull training videos you've ever seen. They were still better than Tim Horton's, though.

And now I'm headed back to Disney's Hollywood Studios with another of the Canadian arrivals. Fantasmic is playing tonight, and I can't wait! Yay dragon and water-on-fire!
