Disney Pic of the Week – Jungle Cruise

Posted on by Lisa Berton
I love the Jungle Cruise at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World and I looooove the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland. Why the difference in my level of affection? In my personal and vast experience, west coast skippers are funnier for the entire ride whereas east coast skippers either excel or fail inside the cave. And no, … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Jungle Cruise"

Main Street U.S.A. Rooftops

Posted on by Lisa Berton
I am forever looking for new angles from which to photograph places like Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom that have been photographed millions of times before my arrival. If only I could gain access to upper levels, both inside and outside. How great it would be to sit in the camp and watch Jungle Cruise … Continue reading "Main Street U.S.A. Rooftops"

Disney Pic of the Week: Main Street USA

This Way to Fantasmic

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disney’s Hollywood Studios (aka MGM Studios) has a large (get it?) assortment of billboards staggered throughout the park. I don’t think that it’s necessarily very Hollywood since signage on Sunset Blvd and Hollywood Blvd (in Hollywood) consists of moving imagery, flashing lights, and entire sides of buildings. Honestly, they’re extremely distracting for drivers. So, as … Continue reading "This Way to Fantasmic"

Disney Pic of the Week: Billboards of Hollywood Studios

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Walking around Disney’s Hollywood Studios always gives me the feeling of being in a place that never was. You know what I mean? Hollywood back in the 1930’s and 1940’s was like a fantasy to most of America. A place not quite real. The billboards you see around the Studios help to tell the story … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Billboards of Hollywood Studios"
