Happy Ruby Tuesday


I have a few days in between traveling and wanted to jump in and post.  I have so many things to show and tell!  

How cute is this?  We went to Mount Dora in central Florida as part of a extended weekend and I spotted this trolley just as we were leaving.  The train was under renovation and so we will be going back when it's back in service.  Now this cute trolley will be on the list of things to do! 


Mickey's Christmas Party was one of our destination's. 
The whole Magic Kingdom was lit up festively!  All the trees in the park were lit up red and green!
These were in Tomorrowland.  



The Grand Floridian needs no decorating as it's already Christmassy with the red accents and green lawns and trees but the masses of poinsettias everywhere were simply beautiful!  




 Our trip ended with lovely fireworks seen from the Grand Floridian across the lake.  See the tiny purple dot?  That is Cinderella's Castle!  We were surprised to see how far away the fireworks were from the castle.  We had almost as good a view as we did in the park.

Future Non Scary Trunk or Treat Ideas

Image
We had a Family Fun Night at our church on Wednesday Oct 31 and the public was invited to participate via flyers and signs.  The two hour fun night had several event areas.  In the sanctuary the teens had a fun 10 minute skit they put on every half hour of the evening.  The one side of the church's parking lot had a huge bouncy house and a dozen or so carnival games with prizes and the other side of the church on the parking lot we had a Trunk or Treat.   I participated on the Trunk or Treat event and unfortunately was so busy I didn't get over to the other events for photos. I was able to photograph some of the other decorated trunks while they were setting up to get future ideas.  It was my first time of participating in this kind of event although my grandkids have gone to them in years past.   I charged it up a bit with some extras at the last minute, like lights and some other decorations.   I repurposed my house decor for one ...

Disney World's Polynesian Resort Hotel

Image
When we first arrived at Disney World we took the boat over to the Magic Kingdom.  Mr. Bill remarked, as we passed the Polynesian Resort, he never had any desire to stay there.  It looked boring to him from the outside.  I hadn't thought much about it, but I did like the lit torches when we passed by on the monorail.  I decided this trip, since we had a free day, we would stop in and tour the three hotels on the line.  We toured the Grand Floridian , the Polynesian Resort and the Contemporary Resort From a distance it doesn't look too exciting.  I could understand his lack of enthusiasm.   When we stepped off the monorail however, the entrance was incredibly gorgeous.  The waterfall was something we hadn't noticed as it was somewhat hidden from the view of the passengers riding.  It was framed by colorful blooms and multiply kinds of foliage.  Completely setting the stage for a visit in the South Seas.   Inside ...
