My last Serving Shift

The other night I had my last night serving at Le Cellier in Epcot! Since everyone is here for a year representing Canada, The restaurant has a little tradition where you stand on the fireplace in the dining room and everyone sings O'Canada on your last night. My last table was awesome, and it was a really great night! Breanne and Jill stood up there and talked on my behalf! It was so cute, and kinda sad too! I will miss it!

Justin Timberlake Concert

The Concert was amazing! Tanis, Andie, Gary and I drove to Tampa Bay, we really lucked out and ended up watching the show from the 4th row! It was amazing!!! So much fun!

I have been driving around a little convertible this week which has been great because the weather is hot and sunny! Dinner at Jiko (Animal Kingdom Lodge) where Todd works, Tanis and I had to eat there one more time! So so Good!

Tanis' last day!

Tanis had her last day at work on Wednesday! Here is Tanis, Kelsey and I right before work! I can't believe I'm next! I have exactly 7 days left of work! Kinda weird actually!

The Magic Kingdom! - Valentines day

The other day, I spent some time at the Magic Kingdom. It is very cold in Florida lately and we were freezing almost the whole time! We took the Mark Twain Riverboat which I hadn't done before, and went on the Jungle Cruise!

Gary and had lunch at the Fort Wilderness Lodge and I went for a massage! It was amazing! It was a 50 minute Swedish Full body massage! Absolute heaven! wow! I love the Wilderness Lodge, the trees, the big fireplaces, it reminds me a lot of Whistler!!!
Later on Gary took me for dinner at Victoria and Albert's at the Grand Floridian. It was absolutely amazing! It is Florida's only AAA Five diamond restaurant! It included seven courses, a menu with your name printed on it, and every lady even gets a rose afterwards. It was awesome!

Happy Valentines Day!!!

Hope everyone is having a great Valentines Day!!! Yesterday I worked for lunch, then Tanis, Shane and I went to Epcot for dinner and to watch the Illuminations Fireworks one more time! It was great, and dinner was amazing as usual! I had the Mushroom Filet and an Ice Wine Martini! Then Tanis and I had our throw out! Where everyone from Canada gets together and we give away all of the stuff we have collected through the year and aren't taking home with us. Wow did I have a lot of stuff!!! I can't believe its almost over, 2 weeks to go!!!

Word Cloud!

This is cool! I found it on Lisa's blog. The website puts together random words from your blog into a world cloud. Pretty interesting!

Today I felt like I was on Vacation...

Today was a wonderful day off!! There is a huge builders convention in Orlando (2nd biggest in the world apparently) so every rental place was out of cars, I finally lucked out and rented a blue Mustang - Yay! It was a beautiful day out and it was really warm too, Gary and I went to Universal Studios, and there were no long lines at all. We went on all the good rides and sat in the front of all the Roller Coasters. I decided that the Mummy is one of my favorite rides of all time! It's incredible!!!, a roller coaster in the dark with fire, smoke and scary mummy's!!! Later we went to Bubba Gump Shrimp for dinner!! Yum! We then headed to Downtown Disney for Ghiradelli's Chocolate Milkshakes and I bought some stuff from the Disney Store. It was a great day and the sunset was beautiful!!!! I will miss that for sure!


P.S. Anna Nicole Smith randomly died in Florida today at age 39!!??? Crazy!!

Sunny Days...

Yay! Today I slept in as usual, I've been so lazy lately since Ive been working late and the weather has not been that nice. Today though, the sun was shining through my window and I got the sudden urge to go for a run. I charged up my ipod and did just that. It is 21 degrees outside, which is warm for this time of year, when I got back I layed by the pool for an hour and actually got some sun! I feel so much better now, nice and refreshed. I have vowed to do this each day until I leave, I mean I only have 3 weeks left in the Sunny South!!!

picture fun!

Okay so I can't sleep and I'm having fun playing with some pictures on Picasa. I think they look nice so there you go...My creations!!

Stomp the Yard!

What a great movie!! I loved it, it was the sort of movie the whole theatre gets into! Definately go see it if you want to be very entertained!

Happy Disney Graduation!

Today we went for our year end graduation breakfast at the Contemporary resort. I love this picture of Me kissing Mickey on the nose. Fun fun fun!!!

Epcot!

A bunch of us went to Epcot afterwards to drink around the world. We had lunch at Le Cellier in Canada and then had half yards of Strongbow in the UK. We continued all the way around the world, it was an awesome time! Good times!

Candice and Tanis Day off!

Well the great thing about living in Florida and working for Disney World is that you can visit the parks on any day with no trouble or planning involved. Today Tanis and I had the day off so we did just that. We made reservations at The Hollywood Brown Derby which we heard was good and headed to MGM Studios. We had lunch, watched some of High School Musical on stage and then rode the front of Aerosmith's Rockin Roller Coaster! It was great!, one of those cloudy days where the parks are empty. We didnt have to wait in line.


For dinner tonight we went to JIKO at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. This is my favorite restaurant in all of Disney World. Tanis and I shared a salad and flatbread, filet mignon and African chicken. For dessert they brought us Pistacchio Chocolate Creme Brulee among other goodies. So good!!!!!

P.S. Tommorrow I am graduating from Disney World. Sounds crazy I know! All of us who arrived in February and March get to go for a fancy breakfast and celebration at the Contemporary resort. Even our Boss Mickey Mouse will be there to shake our hand! Should be fun! After, its off to Epcot for some drinking around the world!

Steph's Rage about US healthcare!

I thought this was pretty funny! Considering I am sick right now, and since I didn't extend my Health insurance this month (haven't gotten to it yet really) I decided to get better on my own without antibiotics or a trip to the Doctor. Forking out $200 so the doctor can agree with me that I am sick just didn't seem worth it. Check out Steph's Blog! where she writes about being proud to be Canadian!

Washington DC!

Just got back from a trip to Washington DC. It was great! We saw the Capitol, The Washington Monument, The Library of Congress, The White House, Georgetown University, The Hope Diamond and many famous pieces of art in the National Art Gallery. We stayed in Georgetown where there were lots of restaurants and shops. We took the Metro train everywhere! It wasn't cold until the last day or so, then I became sick, and I'm home sick from work today blogging and watching tv! :(

More D.C...

We saw many memorials while in Washington. The Lincoln Memorial, World War II Memorial, Korean War memorial, Vietnam War Memorial, and the Jefferson Memorial to name a few.
Seeing the Hope Diamond was amazing! This neclace is kept in a glass case in the Museum of Natural History. It is now worth over $300 million dollars! We also went to Ford's Theatre where President Lincoln was shot while watching a play from the balcony. From the top of the Washington Monument we could see the whole mall, including the Whitehouse and the Capitol Building. I took a picture next to each state I have visited. During this trip I went to District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. They are very close to each other. One day we took the Metro to Maryland to have lunch, 10 minutes away.

Georgetown

Georgetown University is the oldest and one of the most established Universities in the Country. It was beautiful! Gary had never been to an American college before so he found it especially interesting!
