Today's been a bit of a chilled one, even though I had all the best intentions to go hit the parks again. I'd booked some FPs for Epcot for mid morning and was going to go to HS first, but I just wasn't feeling in the mood to hit the parks this morning. So instead I headed to dtd west side, and went on characters in flight. I've never done this before but wanted to see what the fuss was about and I'd heard that if you get there first thing it's discounted.
Got there about 9.30 and it was only $10
it's not something I'd probably have paid $18 for, but i thought it was ok for ten dollars, and it's another thing I've ticked off the list of Disney stuff I haven't done yet.
Was going to go mini golfing after that, and even made it to fantasia gardens parking lot but decided it was too hot, even at 10.15am, so decided to go for a drive instead. Ended up in winter garden which was a cute little place, had a wander round the downtown area, then stopped at the big shopping centre area just outside the town centre.
I got a facebook message from a friend saying that the results for the CRP were being sent out. I'd applied for the Epcot cultural exchange programme a few weeks ago, it's something that I'd never got around to applying for when I was younger, but since the divorce i thought why not, I've got nothing to lose. So I bit the bullet and applied, not really expecting to get through, but at least I could say that I'd tried.
I hadn't received any emails when josh messaged me, so I had a quick look on the CRP page on Facebook and seemed like loads of people were getting no's. I got out of target and my phone binged, and there was an email saying I'd gotten through to the group interviews!!!!
According to a couple of people who have done this before, there's about 100 people at the groups, and about half of them get onto the programme
so my odds have gone from 1 in 2000 or so to maybe 1 in 2 with any luck!
So on that bit of good news, I drove back towards Disney, and headed for dtd marketplace. Had another wander around the shops and even managed to find the last pin I was looking for to complete the set that's on PWP at the mo, so got all of them and saved myself $20
stopped off at publix on the way home for some drinks and somehow a two pack of cheesecake slices ended up in my trolley
not sure how that happened
Now back at the hotel, and off out to HS later for fantasmic, then going to haul *** to get to the poly so I can watch hallowishes
Tomorrow is my last full day here, I'm sad it's come round but I'm kinda looking forward to getting home and not being insanely hot all the time!
