The Real Lives of Patterson Court CP's
Hi All,
Wow I am getting pretty bad at this uploading business, apologies!
Yes as you can tell I am living in Patterson Court with 5 other girls on the second floor :)
Justine, Dayna from New Zealand, Amy from Brisbane and Tiffany and Chloe who I have coincidentally met in Sydney on each of our meet ups :) YAY
So Check-in was so chilled, we literally just got our apartment keys and then had a free afternoon and also had Sunday free. So we were loving life.
Monday was our housing day, we had two housing meeting type things, one at the commons and one at Vista to get our housing ID's.
Tuesday we had Immigration talks and Work locations & pay talks with our first two days that we were scheduled to work, HOORAY!
I am working at.. DRUM ROLL PLEASE.....
FANTASYLAND ATTRACTIONS!!!!! yay
On Wednesday we had Traditions which was funnn, and then Thursday I had my Park Orientation and work Orientation. Friday we had another Orientation with lots of walking and then lots of computer module learning... (yay :\)
Saturday was my first day of on the job training... I am working Mickey's Phillar Magic & Prince Charmings Regal Carrousel. We opened the Carrousel and then learnt how to move guests and operate the machine.
I then had Sunday & Monday off, to which I spent Sunday afternoon/night in Epcot and watched Illuminations.. it is amazing! and then Monday was Amy's 21st Birthday so we went to Magic Kingdom for the day! it was sooo much fun!!
Today (Tuesday) I had my second day of on the job training, opening the Theatre! was lots of fun and tomorrow we FINALLY have an afternoon/night shift, yay for sleep in!!
Until my next blog,
Natalie :)

Welcome to the US of A
Hi All,
so it has been a few days since a blog post and well frankly A LOT has happened!
I was sooo busy prior to leaving that I just did not have time to squeze in a blog post :(
But here I am sitting in the Holiday Inn Sunspree on check-in day waiting for some people to wake up (bloody jetlag)
The flight to LA was pretty brutal, fortunately I had the extra legroom seat (SCORE) so that helped and my flight attendent worked at Disney 3 years ago! what a coincendence!
so we had plenty to talk about on take off and landing :)
I didn't really sleep on the plane and so I had to stay awake in LA all day until my flight to Orlando (KILLER)
I went on an adventure to the Target and brought some Lunch etc
When I eventually landed in Orlando, the Mears transportation was closed and so I just got a Taxi, I could NOT be bothered waiting around
I got to the Hotel, dropped my bags and it was 7am so I waited for a few people to wake up and then we went to Walmart for a bedding shop :)
I brought my bedding and towels so I could stay in my apartment and not have to carry them on the bus tomorrow/today (whenever) and then I just have to get food today
check-in is in a few hours (4 hours) so I am just waiting for that
ohh and the AUS/NZ group had dinner at applebee's last night :) yum
ohh and in Walmart we meet a few people not in the Disney Facebook Group who we invited to dinner too :)
So I think that is all so far, hopefully,
If I have missed a few things I hope to include them next time,
Until my next blog (hopefully in my awesome new apartment),
Natalie :)
