Tom Sawyer's Island Part 2

Today we continue our journey up the other side of the island. Are you ready? Let's go!!!

Oh, wait... Before we start heading up on this side, there's the little matter of pirate treasure. Lots of it!



Don't ask me what those long things are...


The kids were going crazy with this stuff!


 Looking back at the fort...and I'm dying to start climbing on rocks!


WHY do people feel compelled to do this to a tree???


My walk continues and I spy another area that is begging for exploration.


What's this??


I never, ever knew they had an elevator at the fort!



The backside of a shipwrecked ship...



I never paid attention to how many bridges there are on the island.




We continue our exploration...


Oh man, those stairs are just calling to me!



Must...keep...walking...


Really?


And not a soul in sight!

That's it for today folks. No, we haven't gotten to the front of the island yet - there's LOTS to see on this side of the island!!

Don't do it, Connie! Don't enter the bridge through the exit! The Cavalry-dressed security guards will throw you off the island if they catch you! Actually....does Island security even dress like that anymore? I know they still do at Tokyo DL.

Maybe those long things are supposed to be bars of gold? They look like loaves of bread.

I'm still enjoying this series, but I miss the old TSI that had a Fort Wilderness that we could actually explore and I miss Castle Rock too!

Disneyland Trash Cans

Yes Folks, trash cans! Do you know where these two beauties are? You'll find them as soon as you come through the gates at Disneyland. This should be easy to figure out - Adventureland! How about these? Hmmm??? New Orleans Square! Here's a trick question: Which two lands share the same style of trash can??? You can find these two in Frontierland. Now we're in Fantasyland. Still in Fantasyland but wait!!! The area around It's A Small World has it's very own trash can theme! Tomorrowland!!! OK all you hot shots... WHERE is this MYSTERY trash can???? Do these look familiar? They should. Critter Country has the same theme as Frontierland. I know what you're thinking...you're thinking that I've already posted these and I'm trying to trick you. HA! I have not already posted these! If you look closely, these differ slightly from the trash cans in New Orleans Square. THESE are in the area next to the Haunted ...

Getting back into the swing of things...

Image
It's been a rough couple of days... I came back to work only to be told that I will no longer have a job as of February 1st! Ya, it was a big shocker to me, too. That being said, everything else is back to "normal" and I will begin posting on a regular basis again. Below is a little video I put together taken on my last night in Florida. There is a wonderful little town called Ocala, which I dearly love. I am providing links to two sites, one here and one here , so you can have a little information about the place. OOPS! I just realized that I had posted some of the previous video earlier in the week. Oh well.. at least this one contains new footage, LOL. Peter said I tired him how SO MUCH that I can't go back to Florida for at least two years. hee hee hee

Upside down Christmas Trees?

Image
We interrupt our Disneyland visit to bring you a few pics from Tom's Farms . Ever heard of it? Unless you live in Southern California, probably not. It's a neato keen place and I really dig it. I had not been there in 10 years so it was high time I paid them a visit. They have tons of outdoor seating and it's a great place to people watch. I had a great bacon cheeseburger and then walked off my lunch by window shopping. A life sized Santa! (And he looks a bit creepy the way he's standing there. "Hey baby.." Ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? Me either! I decided to take pictures of all the trees... Look! Another upside down Christmas tree. Here's a twist - HALF of an upside down Christmas tree hung on the wall! I kinda like it. These are ginormous ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I'm already planning a return trip to Tom's Farms. I've always wanted a sleigh bed. Ain't he cute??? There is a big can...
