It was 6:45 in the morning and anyone who was awake and/or not working were invited to take a photo in front of Sleeping Beauty’s castle. Some people had only returned from work a few hours earlier and stayed home to sleep, but the majority of us bit the bullet and made our way to the park. My two Indy friends, Ari and Miranda, unfortunately didn’t make it. I was super bummed to not have them in this photo and memory.
Disneyland’s College Program is special because they have the opportunity to take this photo in the first place. No, not because it’s before park opening, but because the College Program at Walt Disney World has too many participants to safely and efficiently take the photo!
One of our two CP coordinators, Katy, was there to take the photo with us (you’ll see her below in a photo). After the group shot, we were allowed to get into groups and take photos by department or other small groups. Unfortunately, not all of The Indy Crew showed up, but I’m really glad that I did! I’ll admit, however, that despite it being freezing that morning, I really wish I had taken off the Duster so the photo captured the darling costume underneath. Oh well. Live and learn!
