Wordless Wednesday: BOO to You!

It’s been several years since we visited Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom, but one of the things that we truly enjoyed when we visited was Mickey’s Boo to You Halloween Parade. A highlight of the evening, it is a wonderful way for Trick or Treaters of all ages to have some not-very-frightening fun, and see some of the happiest looking witches, ghosts and ghouls that you will ever meet.

Wordless Wednesday: Musketeer Donald

I love Donald Duck. Sometimes cranky, misunderstood, in trouble….and the opposite of the seemingly perfect Mickey….Donald actually seems more “real” to me. 🙂 I often think that Donald hates to be compared to Mickey and that is why he is so hard to find at times. But he makes an appearance every now and then, and during Halloween you can find him as Musketeer Donald, a brave and trustworthy hero. Never fear Donald, you may not be perfect, but I love you just the way you are!

Wordless Wednesday: Welcome to the Food and Wine Festival

In less than a week, this year’s International Food and Wine Festival will begin at Epcot. We had the pleasure….and I do mean pleasure….of attending last year, and it was a fantastic 4 days of eating and drinking around the World! To those of you who are going this year….enjoy! Bon apetite!

Wordless Wednesday: Just Another Typical Evening in World Showcase

You’re strolling along World Showcase before dinner one evening, and suddenly a gentleman brings out a chair or two, and asks for some “help”. Curious, you stop for a moment and wonder what on Earth he is doing. Before you know it, the person who “volunteered” to help, is perched high up in the air, and you are holding your breath hoping that the poor guy doesn’t fall and break his neck. He doesn’t, of course,  🙂 and you applaud this demonstration of balance, courage, and yes, a bit of Disney magic too.

It’s just another typical evening at Epcot. And one of many reasons why you shouldn’t go rushing from one attraction to the next, without stopping to be amazed and entertained every once in a while.

Wordless Wednesday: Spaceship Earth

Probably everyone who visits Walt Disney World has a favorite “icon”: that one structure, building, or sign that just warms your heart and tells you that yes, you are back in that magical place you love. For many it is probably Cinderella’s Castle.

For me it is the stunning beauty of  Spaceship Earth that tells me that I am home at last.
