Destination Disney–Cinderella’s Castle

My dear friend, Heidi, is hosting the Destination Disney every week on her blog.

This week it is all about Cinderella’s castle.

The last time I went to Disney World was with my husband for our honeymoon in June 1998.

We are dreaming to bring the kids in a near future.  

But in the meantime, I participate to this Destination Disney whenever I can.

We have a few picture from the Castle at Disney World.

 

 

This view is from the Disney World Ferry.  I love the fact that I was able to catch the train passing.

My sitting in front of the statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse that was in front of the castle.

Side view of the castle.  You can see the entrance of the right side of the picture.

I had to walk inside…   And I snapped a couple of pictures.

I particularly love this sculpture of the mice and birds.

Honestly, I can’t wait to see my daughter’s face when she sees the castle for the first time!   I’m sure it will be priceless…

Destination Disney–Unique Disney Picture

My friend Heidi, at Reviews & Reflections, has a meme titled Destination Disney.

This week she asked that we post a unique Disney Picture.

Well, the last time we went to Disney was in 1998 during our honeymoon.

But I found this picture quite unique…. You don’t see these everywhere…LOL

Planning Strategy for Walt Disney World...

My friend Heidi has an interesting weekly thing called Destination Disney and this week (well okay maybe last week... I'm a bit late) it was about planning your trip.

It has been 10 years last June since we went to Disney - that was before kids!  On our honeymoon...  I had bought books back then to plan our trip.   I'm a MAJOR planner and I like to figure out what to do when...  know what I mean?

So while going through our stuff to see what would go back in the basement and what we are getting rid off, we found the old planning books...  These we didn't keep because 10 years have gone by since then.   But we were planning to buy other books when we would bring the kids to Disney.

It is possible that we do that in 2009.   It will depends of many things but it is one of our potential trip.   The kids don't know...  so shhhhh!   Don't tell them.   It will be a surprise.

While going to Costco not too long ago, I stumble on a special book there.    I showed it to hubby and we decided to buy it.   You've guessed it!   A planning book for Disney!

The PassPorter's Walt Disney World is packed with interesting information and planning guides.    I can't wait to see if we will be able to go this year and then pick up the book and plan our trip!  What a surprise it would be!!!!

You can find this wonderful book at Amazon.com

Destination Disney - Cool photos

Back in 1998, we went to Disney for our honeymoon.   There we visited MGM Studios and while going an attraction, Rob got picked out from the crowd to "act" in a scene of the 101 Dalmatians movie with Glen Close.  How cool was that?

Here's some pics from his acting career...

Here he is getting instruction and looking at the real scene of the movie.

Now he has to act it...  You think it's easy ?  

Still acting... and trying to remember what is the next thing he needs to do.

Avoiding whatever is getting in his way...

At the end, they incorporated my poor husband in the scene replacing the original actor...   It was very cool for him to experience this.

Another cool thing we saw while in Orlando, Florida was all the different reminders that you are indeed in Mickey Mouse Land... like the electrical post we caught on the side of the road!
