William Kidd Ceramics

One of the artist I talked to at this years Disney Festival of the Masters was William Kidd. He makes beautiful and interesting ceramic works of art. So I wanted to showcase his work a bit here.

Gaylord Palms ICE! show pictures, picture gallery for 2010

December 5, 2010 by

Well everyone, I went to the Gaylord Palms ICE! show for this year, 2010 and took great pictures of it. I have to say it was pretty good with great ice sculptures. For those who don’t know what the Gaylord Palms ICE show is about, see my full article here.

I took a lot of Gaylord Palms ICE show pictures and made a picture gallery of the best ones below, as well as the youtube video above. Each year they do a different theme, so the ice sculptures are a little different.

I used the same pictures for the Youtube video of Gaylord Palms as I did for the slide show picture gallery below. The slide show below shows the pictures bigger with more details, I think so anyway.

For those going, you park in the back where the convention center is, as that is where the entrance to the show is. There is a parking fee, I’m not sure if it’s different depending on how long your there. It cost me $11.00.

Walt Disney new years eve 2010, 2011

It’s time to find out what’s going on for Walt Disney new years eve 2010, 2011! As always expect all the theme parks, including all the Disney parks to be packed full for new years.

In fact most Disney parks will fill to capacity around the middle of the afternoon or so. Once that happens you will NOT be allowed inside. So my advice is, pick one Disney park and stay there all day.

Walt Disney New Years Eve 2010, 2011 should be a blast at all the parks this year. Many choose the Magic Kingdom so they can see the new years eve fireworks go off behind Cinderellas castle.

However Disney’s Hollywood Studios theme park has some great fireworks too, some very unique you can only see there. You’ll just have to decide for yourself what park to take in new years eve!

I’ll make it a little easier for you by posting the Walt Disney New Years Eve 2010, 2011 times, events and firework shows you can expect at each park, okay? Here we go:
