My son, the Universal lifeguard! Such a proud mum.. Say hi if you see him, pic on post #32

Well it's a week now since DS flew out to Orlando to start on his summer work exchange program at the Universal hotels and he's absolutely having the time of his life, I'm just delighted for him (& more than a little bit envious! )

They've had several days of orientation, 2 days off and he's now on day 2 of 3 days training before starting work.

They've been allowed to buy WDW Florida resident Pixie pass APs so as soon as they've finished the days sessions they've all been off to Disney - what a life huh!

After they've been there 4 weeks, they get given free entry to Universal, Seaworld, Busch Gardens, Aquatica...

If you have a University student on the fence over doing this, I would absolutely encourage them, they are literally having the time of their lives - couldn't be happier for him

This is all of them on day 1 (minus a select few who's Visas were a little delayed), you can follow the hashtag #myyummystory on IG if interested in what they're all up to.

Hope he has a lovely time and so many memories

Always will remember the young girl who did a report about 3 years ago.Sorry can't remember her name.

Definately a proud parent moment

They get allocated their hotels at the end of training so will let you know. Could be any of the 8, he hasn’t requested a specific one. 😊

I’ll sign!

I did ask Yummy if they needed any 50 year old old nurses but I’m yet to receive anything concrete… 😂
