We got up early as we wanted to get some washing done - which if you want to put it in the dryer it takes an hour and a half! It took us a little while to get the machines working but we eventually (& successfully might I add!) mastered our first load of washing and drying at Disney!
Walmart - Take Three (I think? I've actually lost count now!)
We then headed out at about 11am (we did some kitchen cleaning first) and caught the bus to Walmart again. This time we mostly bought food stuff. Last night we made a list of some meals that we can prepare and wrote a shopping list for all the ingredients. So we were probably in Walmart for a good 2 hours again!
But this time we were determined to catch the bus home and sufer the sore shoulders and hands - because well - its free and the taxi is certainly not! Once we got home and unpacked it all we had a quick sandwich (BTW - their 'Sara Lee' loaf of bread is oddly very sweet like they accidentally tipped a bucket of sugar into the mixing bowl when making it) and then headed off to the bus!
First Disney Meeting:
At 4pm we had our first Disney Meeting which was exciting! It was a housing meeting so we learnt all about the housing complexes - the do's and don'ts and the rinmportnat information. This season was about 2 hours long!
After that we came home and when we walked in - it actually started to feel like home! We had food in our fridges and we had stuff unpacked in our rooms - it was good!
First Official Dinner:
We had decided on something easy for dinner as we are still rather tired from the last couple of days! So we made Spaghetti Bolognese We made it slightly healthy by adding broccoli and mushrooms! Although slightly simple - it was delicious and I think we did a good job if I do say so myself! (Haha)
After dinner, all the roommates actually sat down and had a little chat for the first time!! It was really good to have a good chat with them all! But yeah we have an early start tomorrow morning as we have another Disney session (8am though....ahh!) we headed off to bed quite early!
SIDENOTE:
There are many many weird things that I have come across over here in America and if I were to share them all then this blog would be full of them! But this one I had to share:
On the left hand side is a bottle of normal Wine and the right is well......that normal one on steroids! Hahaha. ALSO and probably the most important is that trying to find instant coffee is like finding Gold at Walmart - they have about one shelf and its only Nestle1. Not happy jan I need my coffee! So I have settled for that until i buy a perculator (they have about 10 to choose from and the cheapest but best quality is about $15)
