A petulant poser in the Pangani Forest

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com A gorilla on the “bachelor” side of the Pangani Forest in Disney’s Animal Kingdom decides to sulk and turns his back to the camera. Guests are instructed not to establish eye contact or gesture towards the male gorillas, as this can upset them.

Towers and tails – a twilight perspective

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com A view of the Walt Disney World Dolphin resort from the World Showcase in EPCOT. The dolphin sculptures on top of the resort wave their tails in the air. One is obscured by the Eiffel Tower from the French pavilion. Perspective makes it seem as though the Eiffel Tower stands right alongside the resort. Here’s the map of the area in question. I think I was standing on...

Scenes from The Blue Dolphin, Sanibel Island

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com A reader wrote and asked me to opine about The Blue Dolphin, a small, lush resort on West Gulf Drive, Sanibel Island. I have visited my friend Christene of Our Vanilla Life when she has lodged there, and stayed overnight one time. The Blue Dolphin sits on a stretch of West Gulf Drive that has been known for good shelling. About a half-mile down the beach is a...

Crest O’ The Wave – scenes from Disney’s Boardwalk

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com There’s a “wedding pavilion” on Disney’s Boardwalk – well, I’ve never seen a wedding happening there, but it is the PERFECT spot for one. It’s a beautiful wooden structure with some wonderfully detailed arches that make a perfect frame for pictures. Since the lake that the Boardwalk follows is crescent-shaped, you can stand at one end, where the pavilion is, and photograph the other end. Here’s what my...

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com Click the photos to see if there is a larger version available in Flickr I love the banks of the lagoons at EPCOT during the International Flower and Garden Festival, because of the all the fun shapes planted into the flower beds.

Picture perfect on the rocks at Disney’s EPCOT

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com In Walt Disney World’s EPCOT theme park, just across the walkway from the China pavilion in the World Showcase, there is a certain rock formation that is distinctive because it has a “doughnut hole” shape cut into it. Many of you reading this may recognize it. Here’s what it looks like on a normal day in May. During the winter holiday season, that same rock formation gets dressed...

EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival drives away the winter doldrums

© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com During the winter time, even here in Florida it can be chilly and bleak. Right now, we’re having an unusually long cold snap, with temps plunging into the lower 30s at night and never making into the 60s during the day. So I went looking for outdoor, watery scenes full of flowers and color and spectacular skies for today’s post. Here’s EPCOT during the Flower and Garden Festival...
