A virtual tour of Disney's Art of Animation Resort

Hi everyone. I thought you'd might like to have a quick look at some of the really cool photo opportunities at the newest resort at WDW called Disney's Art of Animation. I stopped by earlier and snapped a few photos for your enjoyment. Please excuse my photography skills as I "blog on a budget" so all pictures are shot with my iPhone 4s and then given a quick edit on iPhoto. Someday I'll be a rich blogger and I'll buy better cameras. But hey, use it as a good excuse to come and check everything out first hand!




No introductions are needed here. King Mufasa surveys his land at The Lion King area of the resort! Of course, Simba, Timon and Pumbaa can't be far behind.

Lurking just beyond the elephant graveyard, Mufasa's evil brother Scar keeps an eye on all who pass by, including one of his biggest fans! Come on now. We all need a favorite villain!

Henchmen Shenzi, Banzai and Ed keep a close eye on the kids playground here in the elephant graveyard. There is mist that goes off every now and then and that adds to the eeriness of the backstory. It also feels good on a hot Orlando day.

Of course, Disney's The Lion King wouldn't be complete without the voices of reason and guidance - Rafiki and Zazu.



Next. Let's take a little trip "under the sea" with Disney's The Little Mermaid.

The images over here are larger than life and certainly offer many great photo opportunities.

There are gadgets and gizmos a plenty! And whozits and whatzits galore!!!

These are probably my two favorite photo spots at this whole resort and as close to life-size as you're going to get. The evil sea witch Ursula and the great King Triton.

You can almost hear Sebastian crooning with all the other sea life as you marvel at all of the detail.

The Little Mermaid wouldn't be complete with Ariel. Beautiful as ever and with her BFF Flounder by her side, this sight will bring a smile to any pint sized princess face!

I hope you enjoyed this virtual tour of Disney's Art of Animation Resort. If there's somewhere you'd like to see, just let me know and I'll be on my way!

Stay Disney my friends!

PIXAR Place Expansion Coming Soon??

I'm going against everything I believe in when it comes to rumors, specifically DISNEY rumors, but I find this one way too juicy (and likely accurate) to pass up. According to a few reputable WDW fan websites, it seems that the Studio Backlot Tour is poised to close down at Disney's Hollywood Studios. We know that since Oaken's Trading Post and Frozen Funland are moving out of the Soundstage 1 area, work should soon begin on the rumored (and much needed) third track for Toy Story Mania.  Why close the Backlot Tour? It appears that area is destined to be home to a rather extensive PIXAR Place expansion. According to WDW News Today, we will likely see smaller, flat-rides developed for Toy Story Playland at Disneyland Resort in Paris and Toy Story Land at Hong Kong Disneyland including RC Racer, Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin, and the Toy Soldier Parachute Drop. Attractions in this area don't take us much real estate as these rides would require, so WDW News Today specula...

The Art of Topiary Gardening from Walt Disney World Resort

Topiary gardening, the art of fashioning living plan into ornamental shapes, has been practiced for centuries. Found throughout the gardens of the Walt Disney World Resort are hundreds of topiary figures, ranging from traditional hedges and sheared trees to fanciful shapes and a whole menagerie of "chlorophyll" Disney characters. Types of Topiary Four different types of topiary at the Walt Disney World resort have developed out of our desire to put on an award-winning horticultural show. Free-form topiary and standard form topiary require your imagination and some sharp shears - the other two utilize a frame specially suited to their needs. A lightweight frame is used for shrub topiary, while sphagnum topiary require a much stronger frame specially designed to support the weight of the figure. Standard Form Topiary The world standard is used to describe a plant that is grown to a designated height and then encouraged to bush or form a "head" at t...
