November 2013 - Orlando FL Disney delights in details!! We had fun looking for hidden (and not so hidden) Mickeys. These are taken at the Light Show in Disney Hollywood Studios. Click here for more photos of the lights.
We've decided to take it easy and not rush everywhere. The guys are on coffee duty and take our trusty mugs down for our morning java. Click here for Day 1 recap. With the meal plan you have a number of snacks and quick meals. Since we were going to a character breakfast at 11:20 we opt for a snack and head over to the Polynesian Resort. They had told us to give ourselves an hour to get there as we had to take the bus to the Magic Kingdom and then board the monorail to the resort. We were at the resort in no time at 10AM.
It is another beautiful resort in a tropical theme.
Breakfast was all you could eat with Kona coffee.
An early birthday cake!
After we were finished we decided to hop aboard a bus to Disney Hollywood Studios.
Hollywood is probably my second favourite park after Epcot, it is much smaller and could be done in a day.
Studio Back Lot Tour
Stunning special effects!
Lots of REAL water!
Wet tushes! In New York!
Everything is possible at Disney!
We did the Little Mermaid ride.
We rode the 3D Star Tours adventure.
On impulse we also boarded the Great Movie Ride.
As it got dark we wandered back to the Streets of America to be greeted by a stunning Christmas light display.
The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights (casually called the Osborne Spectacle of Lights or Osborne Dancing lights) is a seasonal display, and a annual holiday tradition for many Walt Disney World guests. Millions of lights adorn the Streets of America at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (DHS) for the Osborne Spectacle of Lights. The spectacular part comes not just from the number of lights, but from their presentation.
In addition to the lights covering the Streets of America's façades and its neighborhood props, Osborne Spectacle of Lights showcase holiday-themed animated displays and 3-D effects that are synchronized to holiday music. Snow even magically falls lightly in the Streets of America during Osborne Spectacle of Lights.
