We are bringing our own disposable straws because we too hate the paper straws. Some year we will make it during the Flower and Garden Festival. Your pictures are beautiful.
Aww, thank you so much.We are bringing our own disposable straws because we too hate the paper straws. Some year we will make it during the Flower and Garden Festival. Your pictures are beautiful.
But I may have taken a screenshot of an old TR post on my own thread and checked the HEX code on a website in order to be able to keep close to the same colour.
That's how I tried to find it for this update, as I was mixing up the order of my hex code but it only brought up an rbg?? code [0 0 0 179] or something like that. I figured it out in the end, but... I guess coding isn't for everyone. LOL!The way to find out your exact color is to go an old post of your in that color, go to edit it. Then at the top there is the little cogwheel, click on that. This will transform your old post into non-formatted text and you can see all the formatting commands, including the HEX code for your color.
Beautiful pictures of the F&G festival. This is my favorite festival at Epcot.
Andi and I talked to a CM about the purple martins and they have had over 3,000 babies born at Epcot since they put those bird houses up!
I saw a bird eating some of the butterfly cocoons in the Butterfly House, circle of life
I was able to really enjoy Epcot on both my March and May trips!
I like birds, I like bees.
Give me more, if you please.
How many times have you been? This was my first time seeing it.I LOVE this festival and never get tired of the colorful beauty of it all.
I could wax on and on (and bore you to death) with prattling,
Sure they can! Just use this:What they can’t portray are the luscious scents of the blooms or the sounds of the buzzing, tweeting, and happy music filling in the empty spaces of the senses.
feel the warm breeze on your face (Does it feel like you put a flame thrower to your face? Good you're almost there.),
Looking forward to it.I present to you the Birds and the Bees (and butterflies, blossoms and Babes) of EPCOT.
They grow 'em big in the sunshine state!
Huh. I did (fairly quickly... too hot) go through there. Didn't look up.
Great shot! But...
… this one looks like a painting!
Yep! Completely agree. Stopped for a monorail shot... in the sun... and gave up after a few minutes.Disney’s Monorail Schedule is directly correlative with how hot it is standing in the sun to get a shot of one.
Nice one!
So that's who those are for! I did see them, but didn't know what kind of bird would nest in them.
Awww...
I did read recently that this May was the hottest May on record in 100 years!!!!
Three beautiful (and hot) babes.

Use your imagination, Dear Reader, and feel the warm breeze on your face (Does it feel like you put a flame thrower to your face? Good you're almost there.)
I could stare at these views for a very long time. Disney’s Monorail Schedule is directly correlative with how hot it is standing in the sun to get a shot of one.
I equally enjoyed the panoramic views around the park as much as the close-ups. The striking quilted look of the water’s edge is always mind blowing.
I told you, we were the Hot Babes of EPCOT that day!
I know loads of you have done this, some of you multiple times (I'm looking at you @Malia78 and @franandaj ) but it was a really special, and first, treat for me. I have a wonderful canvas repro proudly sitting on my bathroom window sill so I can see it a lot. Yes, I'm 52 with 5 kids.... I see it a lot. Nicely wrapped up for travel, I took my artwork back to the resort and packed it carefully away in my luggage and that's the story of Acquiring Alice Art.
I thanked him profusely, then the CM snapped a few photos to commemorate the occasion. It was a BLAST!!
Agreed! I adore F&G, definitely one of my favourite festivals for sure.I LOVE this festival and never get tired of the colorful beauty of it all. I could wax on and on (and bore you to death) with prattling, so I’ll limit that and let the photos with brief comments do the talking. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. What they can’t portray are the luscious scents of the blooms or the sounds of the buzzing, tweeting, and happy music filling in the empty spaces of the senses.
They are keepers indeed! You are SO talented!!I did come away with a few keepers though.
I love that too... a lovely way to stop and be in the moment.I will almost always take time to stop and watch the birds around Disney. They are so different than the species we have around Oregon and it is such a calming, relaxing thing for me to just pause and be still when I do take time.
Love this shot!!The 3 of us ladies did take time for a PP shoot and ended up being one of the very few we got together.

Well, that would explain it then.
I felt... not so willing to walk around by day last.

As long as we don't get into discussions of the birds and the bees...
Lovely! Turn me over, I'm done on this side.
This is a gorgeous shot. You had a ton of amazing photos in this update. I couldn't possibly quote them all, so just know that I highly enjoyed the eye candy contained therein. Also, I wanted to use "therein" in a sentence and sound smart.
I believe you! But it's totally worth it.
It looks amazing that way. I wish they'd keep the flowers there all year long.
Just what we were expecting!
Wow that is some awesome art! I mainly collect Jerrod Maruyama, but I really do love all the artists.
Beautiful pictures at Epcot!! You make it seem like there aren't thousands of people around you!
Oh please please let "C" be for Chunkydump!!
Thank you, Meghan! I had a blast trying to get a good collage of F&G photos to give a good overview. Lots more coming up!Some really beautiful photos in your last update, Liesa! EPCOT in full bloom...my happiest of happy places
That's a great story, and I love your painting! I can't believe Mike and I haven't stopped in here yet, we will definitely be doing that next year!
Your F & G photos are beautiful
They are keepers indeed! You are SO talented!!
I love that too... a lovely way to stop and be in the moment.
Thanks!Love this shot!!
But not a real flower. That's what I was getting at (unsuccessfully, obviously. )This was not up high. Kinda eye level about halfway through.
I've never rope-dropped for a monorail photo!I got mine a bit earlier in the day so it wasn't surface-of-the-sun hot yet.
I can see that!When I first saw them last Fall, I thought they were speakers or something like that. Some sort of technology thing...
Wanna share a park bench in the shade and watch the kids run around?Yeah, the heat saps and by the end of a trip, the old bod starts to peter out.
