UP! A Great Bird Adventure

Animal Kingdom turned 20 yesterday, and a new bird show debuted. UP! A Great Bird Adventure took the place of the old Flights of Wonder show. This new version stars Dug and Russell from the movie, UP. I took this shot of the recently refurbished theater, while waiting for the show to start.

Rivers of Light

The Rivers of Light has quickly become one of my favorite nighttime shows at Walt Disney World. The theme is great, and the soundtrack is phenomenal. I took this shot of the floating tiger a few days ago, while watching the show with family.

Casitas

Coronado Springs is a very large resort, with several uniquely themed areas. I had family staying here last week. This shot was taken in the Casitas section, which isn’t far from the front of the resort.

Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular

One of the best nighttime shows currently running at Walt Disney World is Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular. It is a great combination of fireworks and huge projections, and it takes place nightly at Hollywood Studios. I took this shot of these giant towers of fire a few days ago, while enjoying the show with family.

Flower and Garden Festival

I was at the Flower and Garden Festival a few days ago, when I took this shot. I thought it captured the spirit of Epcot, during this time of year. The monorail lined up nicely behind this large flower display.

Meerkat

The Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail is known primarily for its amazing gorillas. However, there are some other interesting animals to be found here. The meerkats are cute little guys that are fun to watch. I took this shot today, while giving an Animal Kingdom tour.

Frozen Ever After

One of my favorite discoveries is when I find a tribute to an extinct attraction hidden in a new one. I noticed such a reference while riding Frozen Ever After a few days ago. The “Maelstrom” was the ride that was replaced by Frozen in the Norway pavilion.
