All Ears Photo Meet near Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Posted on by Scott Thomas
The next All Ears Picture This! Photo Meet will be different than past ones. Instead of walking around, this time it will be in one location. The location is along the Epcot Resort Path just off the Disney's Hollywood Studios parking lot (see map below for approximate location at the star). I will be there starting at 6:30pm on Saturday, September 12, 2015.

Documenting Details Around Disney’s Hollywood Studios
