Here we go...LAST SET OF PICTURES , I promise! :rolleyes:
These are put in no particular order aside from the alphabetic order I had them on my computer. Commentaries are before the picture.

B&W picture of the gibbon island (viewed from an AK smoking section). Please note that most AK smoking sections are shaded and have tables and chairs! Yes!! :D
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/akisland.jpg

My hand at nature photograph. This little bugger wouldn't sit still! Picture taken at the UK butterfly garden. (yes I *know* it's not a butterfly, thank you Captain Obvious!)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/bee.jpg

Good attention to detail at AK. This antique bike was found near the end of the smoking section where I took the first picture in this thread. Please note, this bike was only tied to the fence, and loosly tied too. Wonder if people tried to take it for a ride? :rolleyes:

MGM..B&W of the SS Down the Hatch. (some counter service snack place rests inside)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/boat.jpg

An antique boat that I snapped a picture of on the way to, I think, Asia.

Princess Breakfast at Cindy's. To the far left is Ejigs, Ejigs' DW and kid, someone else, and BT. I want to say the unknown lady is SSB's DW, but don't place any money on that. :rolleyes:

Another pic taken near the same time. Same people, same disclaimer about the unknown lady. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Dinosaur Gertie..a little more up close and personal (and in color)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/gertie.jpg

A shot of a gibbon..sleeping. Yes, he's that thing waaaaaaaaaay up in the tower. Yes, he gets there by climbing the ropes from some other place (animal CMs are forbidden to use elevators so the guests can't see they clock in and out and take breaks like the rest of the human CMs..true story. :eek: )
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/gibbon.jpg

B&W shot of mickey's sorcerer hat at MGM. this thing is HUGE!
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/hat.jpg

A B&W picture of the kids at MK. There is a color version of this on my MK trip report (Sunday).
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/kids.jpg

A hidden...mickey? No, it's a hidden latch. Oh, I was so tempted to see where it lead to but there were too many people around. :mad: :rolleyes:
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/latch.jpg

B&W across the pond picture of Morocco. Yep, that's basically it. Just Morocco. From across the pond. Good ol Morocco. (it needs a ride!)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/morocco.jpg

NancyIL with this...thing..growing out of her head! Whoa, it's a mutated Nancy! No, it's just a thingy from It's A Small World. :)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/nancy1.jpg

Okay, so it was a little dark when I took this picture, but you can kinda-sorta see that the men's restroom in Pizzafari (AK) was clean! Yep..spotless. (contrary to what some might think)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/pzafari.jpg

The upside down car in Rock n Roller Coaster.
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/rnr.jpg

Picture taken from one of the AK Africa smoking sections. The sign said something about being aware of local customs, blah blah, woof woof......

Color picture of the SS Down the Hatch (MGM in case you forgot already)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/ssdth.jpg

Shot of the crowd forming at Tomorrowland before rope drop. Couldn't believe all these people wanted to see Timekeeper first thing in the morning. :eek: :confused: :rolleyes:
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/tomorrow.jpg

2 pics of Tower of Terror (the second one featuring Tony (TvT))
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/tot.jpg
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/tot_tvt.jpg

2 pics of the character trolley, taken early morning at MK *yawn*. TownCrier's wife is in yellow in the first one (don't know who the other chick is). PandyPaws is in the second picture.

2 more views from my balcony at the Dolphin (you'd think I loved the view or something)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/view.jpg
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/view2.jpg

A waterfall at AK......I think. :rolleyes: Could be elmer's glue sprayed on a rock and I wouldn't know, but I would take a picture of it anyway. ("look everyone, someone sprayed elmer's glue on a rock at animal kingdom!") :rolleyes:
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/wtrfall.jpg

PandyPaws (aka Donna) taking a swig of her drink at Whispering Canyon. Take a good long look at how long this drink is...and then understand that Glo drank 2 of these! (yes in one sitting)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/donna.jpg

Electrical Water Parade/Pagent (forgot). I had the film speed right, I had the flash off. The only thing I *didn't* account for was the movement of the boat! Argh! As you can tell, it's a wee bit blurry (even after some focus adjustment)
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/king.jpg

A picture of one of the fireworks during the MK Firework Cruise. Shortly after this picture I ran out of film (and the fireworks had just started). :rolleyes: :( :mad:
http://luna.cas.usf.edu/~jlade/vacation/others/firework1.jpg

NOW that is it. No more pictures. None. Zero. Nada. Zilch. Emay oneday. (that's "me done" in pig latin, just so you know)

Very nice photos, James. I especially like the night shots from the MK Fireworks cruise. None of mine from the electrical water pageant turned out, and my one pic of the fireworks was pathetic.

Er um...you may have a few more photos to post, if you choose to scan the ones that I'm sending you. ;)
