Walt Disney World Archive
It was the second day of our trip, and we still had yet to experience any attractions. To be fair, our Epcot visit was short-lived, especially for Sarah, but it still felt a little odd to visit the park and not do any attractions. On the agenda for that morning was Disney’s Hollywood Studios. We
Even if we hired Robin Williams to say that title, I just don’t think it’d have a good ring to it. Still, France in Walt Disney World’s Epcot is pretty beautiful in the morning. We love to wander around World Showcase right as it opens, before the masses of people show up. At this early
At the conclusion of what was easily our most successful day of touring Disney’s Animal Kingdom ever, we had the pleasure of seeing the Asia area of the park at night. We had actually seen it at night twice before. Once in 2010 on our honeymoon for a couple of minutes before leaving due to
Note: if you follow our exploits through social media, you might be aware that we took two trips to Walt Disney World, one before Christmas and one for New Year’s Eve, about which we haven’t reported yet. It has been an incredibly busy winter for us, and with the content of these reports almost entirely
We visited Walt Disney World in February 2012 in honor of…uhh…Valentine’s Day? (it’s getting more and more difficult to try to justify these trips!) and we had a blast. We laughed, we cried (when we thought we were going to get stuck watching the Norway film), and we ate. A lot. We stayed at Disney’s
Spaceship Earth at Walt Disney World’s Epcot (or EPCOT Center as many fans, including me, still call it) is one of my favorite things to photograph. It’s something you won’t see anywhere else, and it’s truly majestic. I’ve taken thousands of photos of it, and given that, you might think that I’ve exhausted unique photo
Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom is an interactive game in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom that debuted in 2012. At the Main Street Firehouse, Merlin recruits park guests as apprentice sorcerers for the game, and sends them out to various lands in the Magic Kingdom to do battle with Disney villains, led by Hades, with
When we were at Epcot last week, it was apparent that the park was already preparing for Epcot’s Flower & Garden Festival. The patch of grass near the Imagination pavilion that normally has a beautifully themed flower bed during Flower & Garden Festival was torn up, with markers and outlines of a design in the
Mission: SPACE is an attraction in the Future World land of Epcot at Walt Disney World in Florida. It’s a 5.5 minute motion simulator ride that demonstrates what an astronaut might experience on a space flight to Mars. It’s set in the fictional International Space Training Center, which is similar to NASA. Since opening in
As we were passing through this area of the Magic Kingdom early Tuesday morning on our way to Splash Mountain, this fountain caught my eye. It has long been one of my favorite Walt Disney World water fixtures, but it’s difficult to photograph because there are always so many people and strollers in this area
It’s little secret that the original Journey into Imagination is my all-time favorite Walt Disney World attraction. Without it, you wouldn’t be reading this blog (because it wouldn’t exist), and it’s highly unlikely that Sarah and I would take so many trips to Walt Disney World as adults. The entire pavilion oozed of (as cliche
