6 more sleeps till the Flower and Garden Festival!

© Copyright 2010 Tink *~*~*

http://MyMobileAdventures.com

Next Friday after work, I’ll head over to Orlando to meet up with some friends for dinner. We’re going to cheer some other friends who are running in Disney’s Princess Half-Marathon, and take in the Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT.

Be sure to check in over the weekend (Saturday March 6th and Sunday March 7th)for some mobile blogging fun – I hear we’re going to hit the tequila bar in Mexico ;)

In the meantime, enjoy these topiary critters from last year’s Festival.

Towers and tails – a twilight perspective

IMG_0856-WDW-EPCOT-Dolphin
A view of the Walt Disney World Dolphin resort from the World Showcase in EPCOT. The dolphin sculptures on top of the resort wave their tails in the air. One is obscured by the Eiffel Tower from the French pavilion. Perspective makes it seem as though the Eiffel Tower stands right alongside the resort.

Here’s the map of the area in question. I think I was standing on the right at “F”, near Norway/China. The French pavilion is just to the left of “Restaurant Marakesh”, and the Walt Disney World Dolphin resort is further left. (NOTE: if you click to view the map larger, you will see Marakesh and the Dolphin labeled)

Crest O’ The Wave – scenes from Disney’s Boardwalk

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~*
http://MyMobileAdventures.com

:) There’s a “wedding pavilion” on Disney’s Boardwalk – well, I’ve never seen a wedding happening there, but it is the PERFECT spot for one. It’s a beautiful wooden structure with some wonderfully detailed arches that make a perfect frame for pictures. Since the lake that the Boardwalk follows is crescent-shaped, you can stand at one end, where the pavilion is, and photograph the other end. Here’s what my camera saw when I stood there on a blustery day in December. Enjoy!

Stalking the big, red “hidden” Mickey heads at EPCOT

Click the photos to see if there is a larger version available in Flickr

I love the banks of the lagoons at EPCOT during the International Flower and Garden Festival, because of the all the fun shapes planted into the flower beds. I’ve seen hearts, stars, half-moons and of course, “hidden” Mickey heads. Last spring, the landscaping included two huge, red “hidden” Mickey heads in these locations. One was very close to the glass pyramids that house the Imagination! attraction. The other was quite close to the butterfly house on the other side of the park. Here we go – enjoy!

EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival drives away the winter doldrums

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~*
http://MyMobileAdventures.com

During the winter time, even here in Florida it can be chilly and bleak. Right now, we’re having an unusually long cold snap, with temps plunging into the lower 30s at night and never making into the 60s during the day. So I went looking for outdoor, watery scenes full of flowers and color and spectacular skies for today’s post. Here’s EPCOT during the Flower and Garden Festival this past May (2009). The Festival will begin again in March – that’s only 2 months away! In the meantime, photographs and memories can keep us going until spring comes once more.

By special request – the Sanibel Island Lighthouse

Got a note a moment ago from Mary The Teach, who wanted to see the lighthouse associated with Sanibel’s Lighthouse Beach. I remembered that there was still a pic in the phone that I never sent to the blog because I was in a hurry to get to the causeway the other night.

The pic is hereby liberated, and if you scroll back a couple of days on the blog, you’ll see another.

Yes, aparently I take requests :-)
