Billy Hill and the Hillbillies’ The Devil Went Down to Georgia

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Scott and I decided on this week’s theme long before Disneyland announced they were retiring Billy Hill and the Hillbillies’ show. If you haven’t seen them yet then hop a plane, jump in the car, or skip over to Disneyland before their final show on January 6th. Yes, they’re that good. Here’s just one of … Continue reading "Billy Hill and the Hillbillies’ The Devil Went Down to Georgia"

Posted on by Scott Thomas
While wandering around Disneyland’s Frontierland, I heard music and laughter coming from the Golden Horseshoe Saloon. Upon entering, I saw the place full of guests and a troop calling themselves the Laughing Stock Co. doing a show. Well, I strapped on my fisheye lens and headed to the balcony. I wanted to capture the Golden … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Frontierland Entertainment"

Disney Pic of the Week – New Orleans Square

Posted on by Lisa Berton
It’s funny how our topic for this week is in line with my first visit to New Orleans. Soon I will be able to draw comparisons between Disneyland’s homage and the real French Quarter and surrounding area. My friend has already informed me that finding a non-alcoholic mint julep will be impossible. I guess we’ll … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – New Orleans Square"

Paradise Pier Mouse Ear Hat

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disney’s California Adventure is the only park I saw being built and experienced right when it opened. That was pretty cool. It has changed a great deal over the years and some bad ideas like Superstar Limo closed while good attractions like Soarin’ is cloned over at Epcot, albeit without the totally radical airplane hangar … Continue reading "Paradise Pier Mouse Ear Hat"

Disney Pic of the Week: Paradise Pier

Posted on by Scott Thomas
The Paradise Pier area of Disney’s California Adventure reminded me of the New Jersey Shore boardwalks. Which is exactly what Disney wants you to think of Paradise Pier. The attractions, however, are most definitely Disney. Disney even added a little gem and gave the water fountains for World of Color something to do during the … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Paradise Pier"

Disney Pic of the Week – Halloween Time

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disneyland and California Adventure are packed during September and October and for good reason; Halloween Time is when the parks get a makeover not only with decorations but with attraction transformations, a party, and themed treats. I love how Haunted Mansion has a Nightmare Before Christmas layover and more villains are out mingling and stirring … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Halloween Time"

Animation Courtyard, Still a Kodak Moment

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disney’s Hollywood Studios brings animated and digitally created characters to life, especially in Animation Courtyard. Kids can meet Little Einsteins and Handy Manny. Teens learn how to draw in a hands-on demonstration and adults whip out credit cards to buy art in various formats. Yes, I know, Scott posted a photo of the entrance too … Continue reading "Animation Courtyard, Still a Kodak Moment"
