End of the Shift

When most people end their shift, 'Destination: Home' is the only thing on their mind. But when you work at one of Disney's premiere restaurants, a little sticking around is in order.

In actuality, she's probably in good company. I have a another shot through this window (yes, I was being a little creepy this night) where she was congregating with fellow workers for a little while. And I'm sure the late night snacking isn't too shabby. ;)

Caught!!!! ... The Disney Banksy

Occasinally, people like to document the Disney visits of smaller (much much smaller) inanimate guests. These visits can range from the subtle (Bunnyrel showing Danbo's Adventures) to the extreme (The actual Banksy at Disneyland).

Gotta love the diversity of guests, real and non-real, at Disney parks. ;)

Bringing In The 4th

Every year at the Magic Kingdom, Disney puts on a SPECTACULAR fireworks display; with 360 degrees of pure goodiness!!!!!! And if you don't want to brave the crowds on the 4th, you can even check out the same show on the 3rd (as I did here). ;)

As this was my first visit to the Magic Kingdom for this event, I'll admit that I was being a little pouty as we were moving further and further from the castle as the fireworks were about to begin. As you can see, we didn't end up in the greatest of spots, but the show took an amazing turn; and fireworks were going off all around us. So we were still able to really enjoy this magnificent display.

Oh Mickey, Where Art Thou

Taking guests around the world (or other worlds) is what Disney does best. Whether it's Italy, Japan, Africa, or Happily Ever After; you can't help but to get immersed in an experience.

To do this, the details have to be perfect.... and yes, they usually are. The fact that this viewfinder looks like it might've been owned by a New World explorer, makes its use a little more authentic.

.... and no, I did not know this girl.
