We try to visit Disney parks when they’re less crowded – not
entirely for the reasons you might assume. Sure, the shorter wait times are
nice. It’s lovely to find a free table so you can relax while enjoying your
Dole whip or churro or corn dog. It’s great to get where you’re going without
people literally tripping over the wheelchair. (Why is our chair
so hard to see? Do we need to paint it hunter orange?) But the thing we love
most to do when we’re in the parks is chat with cast members; something you can’t
really do while they’re crazy busy. We ask where they’re from, and what led
them to work for the Mouse. They all have amazing stories, and they all seem to
love sharing. My favorites: a waitress who grew up in Harrogate, a boat pilot
who remembered Brook’s House of Barbecue, a train conductor who was third-generation
Disney, and a cashier who serenaded me with, "More I Cannot Wish You."
