Hi everyone!

Storybook Circus at the Magic Kingdom soft-opened to the public today and we made sure to be there (below, left)! The Barnstormer featuring the Great Goofini was one of several attractions available to guests (below, right). It was a beautiful day and everyone was excited to get a look at this first section of the new Fantasyland to open!

Hi everyone!

We went to the Magic Kingdom yesterday afternoon to enjoy a little downtime – but it turns out, there was a lot to see and we ended up spending most of our time taking photos and video! A friend told us that the scrims on Main Street U.S.A. had been blown off buildings during a windstorm (below, left). We rode the Walt Disney World Railroad - 3 times! – and enjoyed the view of the new Fantasyland train Station which will be open soon (below, right).

Hi everyone!

We spent a full day yesterday at Epcot for opening day of this years Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival. The sky was beautiful for much of the day – turning a little grey as the day progressed. The mushrooms from Fantasia (below, left) are outside of the park, which is unusual for Festival topiaries. Sorcerer Mickey cuts a grand figure as he stands atop the entrance display with smoke billowing (below, right).

Hi everyone!

We decided a couple of days before “One More Disney Day” at the Magic Kingdom (below, left) that we’d attend for at least a few hours in the evening. We arrived at about 8pm, figuring we’d stay until 2am or so. It turned out, we stayed all night! Friends of ours had been there since 6am, and received free commemorative Mickey Ears (limited to the first 3000 guests) and all guests received One More Disney Day buttons (below, right).

Hi everyone!

Epcot is in full bloom as the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival takes shape! Denise went to Epcot yesterday, only expecting the flower quilt and other Festival progression - definitely not expecting topiaries and displays to be up already. A rose is shown in the foreground of the Imagination pavilion (below, left), and the vibrant colors of the large flower quilt are evident (below, right).

Hi everyone!

We started out yesterday with a parade at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort and then ended it at the Magic Kingdom (below, left) to meet with friends. Dumbo the Flying Elephant’s new spinner was continously testing while we were in Fantasyland, with a Storybook Circus sign for “The Barnstormer” (below, right).
