The Growing Up Disney family recently did a team post on why we keep going back to Walt Disney World. For me, one reason is the little things Disney does to make your day special. This series of photos was taken in 2008 on Main Street USA as we walked to breakfast at Crystal Palace. Plenty of people just walked right by this young man. This custodial Cast Member was "painting" Mickey Mouse, and quite well I might add, on the pavement in water. It's such a fleeting thing but just one more example of why you need to slow down and take in the details during a WDW vacation. And I don't know if he was really from Custodial or not, but I do know there are lots of aspiring artists among the rank and file Cast Members. When I worked at Crystal Palace, one of the other seaters was a talented animator working in the park to pay the bills while he pursued his real passion.
I love that!
ReplyDeleteI recently saw this on television. I really hope we get to encounter one of these very talented CM's on our upcoming trip. My daughter will get a kick out of it :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what they can do with a bucket of water and a broom!
