Thank you! I was very surprised I was up and moving that early!Great job on the run! There is no way I would have gotten up that early to run.
When I was in Paris 10 years ago I got on the wrong bus. 5 hours (and a huge language barrier) later, I ended up where I needed to be. Very cool you got to see where the CM's get to live!
Congrats, Caitlin!! I don't think I could ever run a 5k. I'm not much of a runner.But that is such an awesome accomplishment!
And I love that you ran in your Beaker hat. I would have done the same thing. Actually, I probably wouldn't take it off, like, ever. It's the coolest hat!
And what an embarassing bus ride...I got secondhand embarassment just reading it!You poor thing...and then, of course your orange had to break free...Of course.
But at least you made it back without too much of a hassle.
What a morning!!!
I would have been totally flustered with the bus too. How odd!
Very nice that the characters were out while you were running. Is it hard to run & laugh at the same time?![]()
Andfor the goodie bag!
Great job on your run! Its sounds so great to run through Epcot (instead of just running around a track or through some random neighborhood); I wonder if they do 5Ks at any of the other parks or if there is enough room to run through them. I'm directionally and signage challenged so I probably would have ended up on the CM bus! But what a great chance to see some behind the scenes places - I love seeing that kind of stuff.
I thought the characters were a nice touch and even though I didn't stop to see them having the face ones cheer me on was still pretty cool!
Thank you!
Yeah I think I would have stuck out even more if I had begun snapping pictures of the CM bus stops
I wanted to get off asap but the first couple stops were behind the scenes and I had no idea where we were! Thankfully I knew my way around CSR from when we went in '08 or else I would have ended riding the bus all day![]()
Overal the party was worth it we were just expecting more since we had heard about all of the other parties having tons of surprises.I'm so glad the rest of the D23 party was a blast! Gaston (and other characters), desserts, walk-on rides...
Caitlin...great job on the 5K!Nice bag of goodies, too!

Your Very Welcome !!
Yeah it would have been awesome to have your camera to get those behind the scenes shots ! I'm sure the CM's would have got a real kick out of you then
Glad that you were able to find your boundaries and make an escape to the tourist area lol
I am sure I can convince them too! Thank Jasmine for the vote of confidence!
It might not hurt![]()

Yeah I think they would have been giving me some weird looksI will have to take pictures of the CM housing in DL if I get into the college program in a couple years.
I was very happy to get back to POP![]()
Awe that would be awesome Caitlin ! I didn't even know you were trying to do the Disney college program . Good Luck w/ trying to get into the program and a few yearsI'm sure you'll have tons of interesting pictures of Disney to show then !
Thank you! I just recently decided on it. After being an extra in the movie I decided I want to go into acting so the fall after I graduate from college I hope to do the college program at DL. That way I can try getting an agent in California and I would have a job and housing for 6 months. I really hope to get in I have always wanted to work for Disney!
Your WelcomeThat's a great plan , isn't funny how you try something once and then it leads into something much bigger ! I hope your plan works out well and we see you on the big screen once again
