This past month went by so slow once I knew my vacation was just around the corner. I tried focusing on other things and yet mind wouldn't stop focusing on all that I would be experiencing in California. It's June 18th and the wait is almost over for I board the plane for Hollywood and Disneyland tomorrow!
I participated in the Walt Disney World College Program in Fall 2012. The roommates I had were absolutely wonderful and we created a close friendship. I think of them as my sisters and we have been getting together for reunion trips ever since. The past two summer reunion trips have been at Walt Disney World, but this year we decided to change things up a bit with Adventures by Disney!
The last time I visited Hollywood and Disneyland was back in 2007. I went with my family when my Dad won a business trip, but we spent a few extra days in Hollywood. I knew majoring in film was something I wanted to pursue back then, so we spent the majority of our time touring Hollywood. We only spent one day at Disneyland and I don't remember much because of how excited I was to be in the first park. I'm so excited to go back for a week and re-visit the places I loved while experiencing new things.
There are quite a few adventures planned for this upcoming week! Our first day (tomorrow) is going to be a bit laid back as there is an orientation and a welcome dinner, but the following are just a few the many adventures our tour guides will be taking us on:
- Private Hollywood Excursion
- The Jim Henson Company (original site of Charlie Chaplin's movie studio)
- Walt Disney Studios and Walt Disney Archives Tour
- Walt Disney Imagineering Tour
- VIP visit to Disneyland (Walt's apartment included)
- VIP visit to Disney's California Adventure
As someone with a film major background, I'm really excited for the Hollywood and Walt Disney Studios and Archives Tour. Getting the chance to see Walt's apartment for the first time is another thing I can't wait to see. Honestly? I'm really excited to see everything! My camera will never leave my side either. This will more than likely be my last blog for the week, but be sure to check back next weekend for an entry all about my time in California. :)
Is there anything you want me to take photos of or talk about in the next entry? If so, comment below and I will consider it!
