    not really expensive to travel at all

    i paid approx $150 for 3 days in miami - a bunch fo us re ted a car and drove down and stayed at a hostel on south beach was awesome. if you dont want to drive u can greyhound it there for around $55 round trip - it takes about 4 hours to drive or if u bus it around 6 hours

    vegas - staying in the excalibur on the strip and including flights for 5 days was around $500

    niagara falls flights to bufallo, 3 nights at hotel on the canada side of the falls plus bus from the us to canadian side was around $250

    you make aroud $150 a week - u save for 6 weeks just $50 a week and you have enough for a trip :)

    most people do a final trip - basically cos u dot get ur money back for flights and stuff til last minute most of people pay for their flights 3/4 months before their contract ends - that leaves them with a final pay check of around $800 -1000 which is plenty for a final trip. internal flights can cost as little as $100 return. hotel rooms are by room not by umber of people in them - so if there is a couple of you its even cheaper :)

    completely off subject, but anyone got any ideas about what i can do to stop me from going completely crazy with this wait til april?
    i've even resorted to looking on the disney store website... i even keep reading my cv over again and just hoping that it's everything they want.
    safe to say i'm slowly going crazy, hahaha! :( xo

    go on youtube and search for disney crp and have a look at the accomodation and photos / vids from people who have been or who are there right now :D

    or make something stupidly disney geeky like decorating a suitcase with astencils and stuff then even if u dont get out there u still have a funky lil case

    Wow it does seem pretty cheap to travel around after CRP ends :) There are so many places I would want to try and fit in before going home though :) And on the subject of going crazy waiting for a reply in April.....I've been on youtube and watched some vlogs people have posted and they are really helpful. There is one girl who has posted (cant remember her name) and she covers the questions that she got asked at the phone interview and how she prepared for it :) There are quite a few vids of people giving little tours around the accommodation, and pictures of them working in Epcot :) xx

    oh yeaaah :) forgot about the youtube thing. ahh that'll keep me occupied for a while!
    as for the suitcase & stencils, i don't have either ;) so suitcase is the one thing i've been looking for aswell. i am gonna be SO gutted if i don't get in, especially as when i'm 21 i want to work on disney cruises!
    but if i do find any good vids i'll post them on here so other people can have a look too :) xo
