The sun has been shining and it's been super hot! I'm building up my tan! :)
Since my last post I've officially taken my assessment and passed with 88%! My training is nearly coming to an end and I had my first late shift on Thursday - 3pm-11.30pm! I was so tired afterwards! However it was nice being able to have the morning off as I spent it sunbathing by the pool! :)
After work on Wednesday we went to Magic Kingdom! This was the first time I'd been on a ride in Magic Kingdom this summer. As I entered the park I even managed to catch the beginning of a parade. I'm desperate to meet more Disney characters and get Autographs - need to see Minnie and Mickey! :) We also went on 'it's a small world', which although some people find this ride tame and the song annoying, it has fond family memories for me of holidays in Disney.
Friday and Saturdy were my days off, so they were spent sunbathing by the pool and going to Epcot on Friday.
Followed by a partybus to a club in downtown orlando on Friday night! It was so so fun! I massively underestimated how little alcohol it would take to get me drunk though! On Saturday we went to Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure! So much fun and we even got to see Gavin DeGraw live in a concert!
I've been noticing lots of little differences between English and American whilst being here. Of course the food is WAYYY more yummy, but bad for you! But also that guests in the theme parks are a lot more willing to approach you to ask for assistance; it always seems that in England people would prefer to get lost than ask for assistance! Another odd thing is that my trainer found it funny that we speak in military time, such as half 11, but we still use the 24hr clock but don't say half 23!
So BIG NEWS, today I had my first ever peanut butter & jelly sandwich! My trainer couldn't believe I'd never tried one so made me one! It was surprisingly really good! I'm practically a fully fledged American now!
