Wordless Wednesday - Dream


This week's Wordless Wednesday's theme is Dream.
Thanks to Deb for hosting this blog hop - why don't you stop by and join in?



To sleep, perchance to dream - even a Caribbean Beach Resort castmember needed some sleep back in the day.


Could she have been dreaming of the Tapestry of Dreams parade that was running in EPCOT back then?



Or, perhaps sharing a dream with Mickey?

Where in WDW? Challenge 32

Where in WDW? comes early this week as I am heading out for a few days ... and to all who celebrate ... Happy Chanukah!

Only a few more Where in WDW? challenges for 2012 ... how have you done? Did you get this one?


I know that at least one or two of you knew that this is right past the entrance doors and turnstiles at the Muppet Vision 4-D attraction in Disney's Hollywood Studios.

Can you tell me Where in WDW? you will find this?


As always, make your guess in the comments section below and then check back next week to see if you are right.

Wordless Wednesday - Walt Disney


This week's Wordless Wednesday's theme is Walt Disney.
Thanks to Deb for hosting this blog hop - why don't you stop by and join in.



Today, December 5, would have been Walt Disney's birthday, so here is a look at Walt and one of his most lasting legacies ...

Here is Walt announcing his Florida Project, the focus of which was to be the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow (EPCOT).




Unfortunately, he never lived to see it even started.


So it was up to his brother Roy, whom Walt made promise to see it created. Here is Roy along with Mickey Mouse at the dedication of the revised version of Walt's Florida Project ... a little place we know today as Walt Disney World.


Where in WDW? Challenge 31

It's that time of week again where we tell you where last week's photo was taken ...


... was taken at the New Fantasyland train station.


The station itself is in the Storybook Circus area of New Fantasyland. If you haven't been to the New Fantasyland, you will be in for a treat the next time you are in the Magic Kingdom.

Did you get it? If not, don't worry because we have a new one this week. Where in WDW? will you find this ...


As always, post your guess in the comment section below and come back next week and see if you were correct.

Tell Me Tuesdays


Winter is cold here in the northeast and I don’t get out as often as I would like to take photos. However, I am introducing a new weekly feature on my photo blog - Gathered Images - Tell Me Tuesday will feature one of my photos with information on how it came to be. (Yes, many of the shots will have been taken in Disney World.) How and where it was taken, technical information, and if any post-processing was done will all be shared. Sometimes before and after shots will be shown.

Then it becomes your turn to critique the photo (don’t worry, I have a thick skin) which can be anything from “I like/don’t like it” to a discussion of how you might have handled the same shot and/or done something differently. Since this is art, anything you like or don’t like is valid.

And finally, you will be given the opportunity to join in with your own Tell Me Tuesday post. Just add your link at the bottom of each post.

It all starts on Tuesday, December 4, 2012 ... hope to see you there!

So now the 30th challenge in the series ... Where in WDW is this?
