A few of you wanted to see how my big World Showcase picture turned out. It's kind of weird taking a picture of a picture, but here goes.
Here's one using the flash, but we couldn't avoid getting some glare on the photo.
Then we tried it without the flash. We were laughing because Swiffer had to get in the picture.
They're not very good pictures of the picture, but you get an idea of what the finished product looks like. I'm happy with it. It's exactly what I would expect -- a nicely printed picture on good quality paper, delivered in perfect condition, and suitable for framing (or wallpaper bordering). So, if anyone's looking for an enlargement of an odd-sized picture, I'd recommend these folks: colorenlargement.com
Oh, and my suspicion was right. I'm wishing I could have gotten the 11-inch high picture, like was originally delivered, but in the length that would have included all of the countries in my photo. But that would have been beaucoup bucks...way more than the big bucks I was already paying.
Since I have your attention, I'll throw in a couple more items. I thought you might like to see a couple of pictures of Marlene as a harem girl in her school's production of "Aladdin". Can you spot her?
So, you can see that she's putting that dramatic flair to work on the stage...not just in our Disney Photopass pictures.
Also, we received a couple of postcards in the mail today.
They are from Magdalene (Flossbolna) and Katharina (Nodnol). Magdalene knew that Marlene loves France and had asked me if I thought she might like to receive a postcard from
Disneyland Paris while they were on their recent trip. It was such a thoughtful gesture and Marlene was really excited to receive it. (Hers was the card on the left.) The card on the right was addressed to me, and I was surprised and happy to receive it. I knew that one was coming for Marlene, but didn't expect one for myself. Thank you ladies! You are so kind!
One last piece of business before I wrap up this post. The next chapter in the trip report is ready to go and will be posted tomorrow at 12:00 pm, eastern time. It's a two-part update, so make sure you give me time to put up both posts before you start submitting your Judy-sightings.
