In the courtyard you will found a replica of the Nejjarine Fountain in the city of Fez. The original is located at the place of Nejjarine at Bali.  Artists developed  this great  style of abstract design.  Did you realize you are experiencing small pieces of Moroccan culture

One of my favorite places to wonder through and have a quite moment is in the Moroccan Pavilion.  Many visitors do not take the time to explore all the beauty.  Here is a The Fes house's courtyard which is typical for a Moroccan home.  How blue is that sky?

If you have been reading my blog for awhile you already know that I can spend a whole day in the Seas with Nemo & Friends. I get lost watching the activity in the aquariums. I am not just talking about the big one. Make sure you send some time visiting the small tanks to get a close up look at some amazing animals. On this day the Seahorses where enjoying a meal and putting on

My first thought upon seeing these pins was Steampunk Disney. What is Steampunk? It is a sub-genre combination of science fiction, fantasy, and alternate history.  In this world steam power is still widely used. It Incorporates elements of Victorian Britain and Wild West of the United States. The technology will remind you of the machines you would find in an H.G.

Do you know were to find this Mickey? I have been trying to get a good photo of this one for years.  ere is a hint you have to take a boat tour in order to find it. That's right board "Living with the Land" and get ready to spot a few hidden Mickeys. This one is in a test labs of the greenhouse. If you are not looking for it, is is very easy to miss.

One of the newer shops at Downtown Disney Marketplace is "Design a Tee", an interactive shop where you can customize your own souvenir  t-shirt. Step up to one of the kiosks and start having some fun. They are a variety of colors and styles to choice from. There are more the 100 selections featuring Disney animation or movie characters. You can create your

Who has not been tempted to try this when visiting Epcot?   The angle could have been better, but the effect is still fun.  Jason can lift Spaceship Earth!

Who is in the mood for a sugar rush?  If you are at Downtown Disney Marketplace go to Goofy's Candy Company and pick up one of this decorated butter cookies.  They are cute and yummy. OK $3.95 is expensive for one cookie.  He is cute and actually taste yummy.  I do admit that all the baked items I have tried so far here have been good.  There usually is a

I took this photo at the Pop Century Resort on a stormy afternoon on my way to the food court.

Here are just a few photos of the Art of Animation Resort, from across the bridge at the Pop Century Resort.  The first phase of the resort is scheduled to open in May 2012.  Can't wait to see it.

When visiting Animal Kingdom you have to learn to slow down and take the time to explore all the nature trails.  The Oasis is a perfect example of opportunity missed by many visitors. Take a stroll and you will see, things you have never seen before.  Just look past the large leaves, near the babbling brook and you could see a Babirusa.

Where can you find this Hidden Mickey? He can be found in Disney Downtown Market Place. He located on the entrance sign for "Once Upon a Toy" store. Make sure you keep a close eye out inside the store, there are many more hidden mickeys to be found.

When visiting the American Pavilion I noticed some unusual merchandise at one of the kiosks. Captain America had arrived. This is the first I have seen Marvel items for sale at Epcot, not really sure when they started selling them here.       In case you didn't remember Disney brought the rights to Marvel's catalog of&

As we were walking out of the Magic Kingdom this past fall the Main Street Confectionery was closing up, only a handful of visitor were in the shop. It was quiet and strange not to see the crowds pushing in the doorway.  I could not resist capturing this moment of quite.

Head over to the Rose and Crown at Epcot and order the Trio of United Kingdom Cheese. It is $9.99, but worth it.  We always try to order one new thing when we are at a WDW restaurant.   The plate includes a Cotswolds Cheddar, an aged Irish Cheddar and Stilton Blue. The accompaniments are an onion jam, fruit chutney, craisins with

I took this at last years annual Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival.  It was a beautiful afternoon.  I never miss going to this festival and recommend it to everyone.  Can't wait to see it this year.  The event will be held from March 7th through May 20th.

One of the newer attractions at WDW is the Characters-in-Flight at Downtown Disney Marketplace. The day we visited, it was closed until further notice due to inclimate weather. Basically it was rainy. That was not the only thing to turn me away from this attraction. The price was to much from my budget. The tickets were $18 for adults and $12 for children. Not bad right, wrong.

Taking a break at the Outpost between the China and Germany Pavilion, Jason decide to make some music. I did not notice until later that the drums made a perfect Mickey silhouette.

  The Dapper Dans have been performing at the Magic Kingdom at WDW since 1971. They perform nine show a day, seven days a week. In the morning the usually arrive at the Main Street USA on the horse drawn trolley. During the afternoon you could happen upon them anywhere on Main street, even in the barbershop. Their must see show is at 5pm along with the Magic Kingdom

One of my must sees at Epcot is the Mitsukoshi Department Store in the Japan Pavilion. I always find the most interesting items, it is an attraction onto itself. Don't let the title of this blog fool you. Hello Kitty can always be found here, but on this occasion I found an unique one. How cute was this? Hello Kitty as a Florida alligator was stuffed among

In the mood for some famous Pizza Planet pizza, head over to Hollywood Studio's at the Muppet Theater courtyard. I am the first to admit, the quick service pizza at any WDW restaurant is bad. I never thought I would use the word, "bad" when describing anything Disney, but it is true then it comes to pizza. If you have kids or love Toy Story the place is lots of fun.

When I stay at a WDW resort I always check out the hotel's arcade. I really enjoyed Fast Forward arcade at the Pop Century resort. A few of the games I have never seen before. They were new to me, and yet they were still familiar. I don't know of any where else I can play such a large scale version of Operation. I so remember the classic Nintendo from the 80s

I know Christmas is over, but you have to admit that this ornament is too cute to just have out for the holidays. I spotted Mr and Mrs Potato Head at the the Disney's Days of Christmas store in Downtown Disney Marketplace. Even they could not resist buying a Goofy hat and Mickey ears. Hope they enjoyed their time at WDW.
