wait what I'm home? and for over a week now?

Hi All,

yeah it's true I am home and yeah I have been for a bit but you know I been busy and stuff.

So the program ended in a flash, my last shift was in Bonjour :) I was planned to finish in zone 2 in a closing shift but I gave it away so I could have the day off :)

The last day was insanely crazy, I was up early to return all my costumes and send my package from Disney. I then meet up with Fallon and Morgan at MK so we could take the challenge of 4 Parks 1 Day and a VERY hot day at that!

We entered MK and got our photos in front of the castle, did a quick trip into the emporium and then straight back onto the Monorail to head to Animal Kingdom.


Intgo Animal Kingdom we got our photos in front of the Tree of Life and Morgan went and visted her workplace for the last time. Then straight of to EPCOT.

We got photos at EPCOT and then waited so we could see our friend Jacob and his good friend Pluto, and after some more photos at the back of the EPCOT ball we headed to Hollywood Studios.

On our way it really looked like it was about to start raining and storming so we quickly got our photos in front of the Hat and then with re-entry passes in our hand headed to Rock'n'Rollar Coaster for our last coaster and then to the 'Great Movie Ride' for our last ride at WDW. then the day was over, a success, but wait the day was not over!

We then had to head home and start packing, Fallon's pick up was 5.30am and mine 6.30am. Fallon had a lot less stuff and ending up getting a few hours of sleep before we woke her up but I had ZERO I was up for over 24 hours, packing and cleaning, we had to completely clean the house, it was crazy.

I did get all packed and finally got onto the plane to head to LA to meet my Grandmother for our trip around the West Coast.

We headed straight to Anaheim for DISNEYLAND :) a CRAZZZZZZZZZZZZY few days of trying to fit in everything we could. After Anaheim we headed to VEGASSS.

after Vegas it was back to LA - Hollywood for a few more days before we boarded our plane back to AUSSIE-land 

I know this was a very quick re-cap, but I don't really know what to say about these experiences.

I think my next blog will be an overview and an understanding of my program, but for now...

Until next time,
Natalie :)

14 Days..

Hi All,

I literally have 14 days left of my program, it is so insane, I am so ready to go though. going to just put m head down the next week and work and try and not cause any trouble because trouble usually finds me.

Morgan and I went to Blizzard Beach for the first time, it was eh, it was sunny then rained then was sunny again, but we just wanted to say that we had been! 
















I did a mock pack of my stuff today and I definitely have too much stuff! I don't like the idea of throwing stuff out but it will probably happen :(

I went back to Universal, did some awesome rides, meet somee superheroes and got to meet the Transformers as well!! The ride out here in Florida does not open until June 20th.. sad face I have left, but they had the area opened and were doing meet and greets.
















Apart from that nothing much has been happening, Star Wars Weekends started and I have been deployed there for Friday, Saturday and Sundays pretty much until I finish. Its fun but I miss my home base.

Anyway that is all really, I just wanted to post to make sure if anyone is reading they can see I am still alive! hahaha

Until Next Time,
Natalie :)

Update Central

Hi all,

I am feeling a little homesick at the moment, I have come to the realisation that I will be leaving in a month and I will be home not long after that. It is sad to leave WDW but I am so excited to go home! I miss all my family and friends. but on to a more positive note,

Merida had her "Celebration" last week as she was crowned a Disney Princess. It was a very very hot morning but she strode in on her horse 'Angus' and the 10 other Princesses welcomed her onto the stage where her mother came out and crowned her, Merida then proclaimed, "..... I am Merida, I am a Princess!" as the banner was dropped and some fireworks went off :) After a few photos she then paraded down Main Street with Angus and her Royal Court of dancers and a Marching Band.










As you can see the very talented Gabby Douglas was also there with her mother to congratulate Merida.

We also had Graduation last week, which is early as we still have a few weeks left, but it makes it easier because we have it done already

                                             







We also visited 'Ohana on the last day of April








And went to Typhoon Lagoon for the Starlit Splash Beach Party for Housing.










Anyway thats all for now.. I am working Star Wars Weekends starting tomorrow, and Brittany left today, so sad.

Until next time,
Natalie :)
