Hi guys!! Im Michelle and Im gonna be arriving March 15th for food and bev! Ive spoken to Jason at Yummy and he said that theres about 12 of us arriving that day!! Not sure how many of the others are food/merch though!! I really cant wait to get out there and meet you guys now - cant believe its only three weeks and Ill be there! Ill prob have loads of questions to ask but right now Im just wondering what the first week is like and how many classes we have and how many forms to fill in!!! Any info on that first week would be great!! Thanks so much - cant wait to meet both of you and the rest of the Uk pavillion in three weeks time!! Michelle xx
Hi Guys, I like Michelle are coming over on 15th March but I will be in merch. I believe the costume is just devine! ha!ha! I guess when I can think of any questions to ask you will be bombarded with them; probably regarding the first week, as we seem to know least about that. Well just thought i'd say hi, i'll speak to you soon.

Actually - now that you mentioned the costumes Gillian I have another question for you (you probably wish you hadnt asked now!!) - when do we get to try the costumes for the first time - i think thats gonna be a very entertaining day indeed!!!
Hi Danielle and Alex! Im Steph and I will be flying to Florida on March 29th and I really can't wait! At the moment I know of two others who are also flying out on that day. I will be working in Merch. Really looking forward to meeting you all soon! Steph
Hey Danielle and Alex! I'm over on the 29th of March too. I hope you guys have something planned for our big arrival!? Cant wait to meet you all! Kevin
Kevin - youve probably already told me this but are you food or merch!?!? Danielle/Alex - what about you guys - food or merch? See you in 18 days!!! 8) Michelle xx
Hey sorry i've been v busy this week so not been near my computer, working loads atm cos we are waiting for u guys, we are f&b. Erm the first week is just paper pushing, it basically sucks. You don't get ur disney pass till you do traditions and thats after u've been there a good 5-6 days so u don't really feel like ur in disney at all and you don't really see much of anyone other ur arrival group. U get to get ur costumes on the discovery day, mine was the sunday methinks. Just a quick thing, if you can poss fit in some bedding and a pillow, definitely definitely do cos u won't have chance to get anything for 1-2 nights also you don't go to walmart til you've been there a whole day and a half so you won't have any food at all so bring something to nibble on if you can like a nutrigrain or something, they don't give you anything, we are gonna try and give you all bread etc but we are all working loads so i don't know whether it'll happen! Anyways don't worry, all will be amazing, everyones absolutely lovely! We all try to help eachother out, i'm due a new room mate around ur arrival time so u never know! Danielle xxx
haha thanks danielle, thats nice of you. even if its not possible the thought was there! so what are the first couple of weeks like?? xx
awww thankyou Danielle for posting you guys must be so busy! So what do u do the first week at disney i heard theres one day at disney uni and one day at epcot... Looking fwd to meeting u guys in June! Theres loads of us arriving then and disney offered immediate positions at the interviews the other day, so u guys must be really short staffed! U poor things... Marie xxx
Danielle - Thanks so much for all the info! Id heard before that the forst week was just filling out form after form!! Cant wait!! Thanks for the advice re pillows/food! Will def try and bring some stuff over with me!! Still cant quite believe that in two weeks Im gonna be there! Seems crazy!!! Cant wait to get out there and meet you all!! Michelle xx
I guess at least first week gives us a chance to get our bearings... so at least we wont be jetlagged when we start work! Means i wont get to see the parks for a while tho - i'll be like trying to get a peak of the parks at all the traditions cos ive never been! xxx
