April 3rd - 10th Solo Trip Itinerary (also 2 interviews)

Greetings fellow TP enthusiasts and Disney-goers!

Another trip coming up in a few days as this will be my very first solo trip. There are a couple reasons for this trip.

#1 reason: Nothing like stating the obvious and that is I love Disney. I love the immersion. I love the attractions. I love the food. And it’s a chance for me to try this thing completely solo. No kids, No Disney newcomers, no one to slow me down.

#2 reason: In case you haven’t heard yet, I’m moving to Orlando in August and I’m currently looking for work. I have a few interviews lined up. One of them is actually a 3rd interview as I’ve already done a phone and a Skype video cam interview already. (Don’t worry I packed my suit)
