It’s the calm before the chaos this morning! The First On DeckĮverything in WDW is a well oiled machine and we are assigned our position on deck and off for every minute of the day. It’s one of my favourite parts! Of course we work on our safety stuff too… Especially as a lifeguard you have to trust them!īut we spend the whole inservice splashing, laughing, and “playing lifeguard”. Swimming is literally one of the only things that I’m REALLY good at and I love it. We start with a few laps and it’s exhilarating. It smells of chlorine as always and we immediately dive in. Running slowly Baywatch-style we rush into the lukewarm water. My mind flashes to the super high amount of kids that don’t follow the rules on the daily. Two super important things to focus on considering Orlando’s weather and the amount of kids trying to dive into the shallow end. Today we’re running through emergency procedures and spinals. It’s really our play time in the pool before guests start to make their way to the pool for the day. Every so often the team will get scheduled to work together to prepare for emergency situations. It’s a hot day, so I definitely don’t mind an early morning swim. This morning we have an early morning inservice as a team.
That’s one of the things that really impresses me about WDW, one of many I should mention. The bus ride is always fun because you see various cast members in their uniforms and since we’re all going to the same resort area you can see how much effort Disney has put in to make a cohesive unit.
It’s always hit or miss with housing transportation. My bus ride is quiet as per usual, and luckily the bus shows up on time today.
I’m honestly just hoping not to get vatted today. A sunny bus ride in which I will plug in my headphones and listen to music as I soak in the few moments of peace before my double shift starts. I stand at the bus stop by Chatham, waiting for the bus to the resort that I work at. Bus service is not provided on some routes served by monorail or watercraft to resorts on their line.Look at my amazing uniform! Getting To Work Disney Springs has service only to the resorts, except for one-way service from the theme parks to Disney Springs after 4 p.m. Each of the four theme parks has service to more than 22 resorts and the other parks. The four theme parks, Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom, as well as Disney Springs, operate as the five primary hubs. All buses are ADA-accessible and can carry two wheelchairs or mobility scooters per vehicle which must be folded before boarding. These announcements use GPS to determine which announcements should be played at which locations. On board the air-conditioned, ADA-accessible buses, announcements are played to indicate points of interest and bus stops. This technology tracks the buses through GPS technology to give projected wait times, though buses usually run at intervals of no more than twenty minutes. Īt the resorts, there are screens that sometimes indicate when the next bus to a given park will be arriving. Bus stops are located near park entrances near Disney Springs' Town Center entrance and along roadways inside the resort or near the resort's entrance. The buses are fare-free for all visitors to Walt Disney World, which typically start 45 minutes before the park opens and end an hour after the park closes but run from Disney Springs to the resorts until 2 a.m. Except where a transportation service exists or walking is practical, direct bus service is provided from every hotel to every park and Disney Springs, as well as between parks.
