Pop Century Pictures

[Eeyore's My Favorite]

Thanks for all the fantastic pics - we'll be there in 10 days. I'm trying to convince DH to leave earlier in the morning so we can check in & wander the resort before hitting the first park. I want to locate all these cute icons that everyone's been posting fantastic pics of and take a few pics of my own.

Mickey here we come....................

Cool maintenance shots. They were working on those while we were in mid-August.

Cool! I never really noticed those as I've only stayed in 50's so far. Here's mine from the 50's.

When we were at All Star Movies during Hurricane Jeanne in Sept. '04, we were in the Mighty Ducks section and they had these, only they were ice skates. By the time the hurricane came through, the skates were all gone off the buildings! Everything else remained, though.

Riley&Mickey posted a great picture of Petals in post #868 on page 58.

Wow that must have been scary. Were they laying around the grounds?

Anyone up for a game of Pac-Man, the life-size version?

I didn't see where they ended up. They weren't in sight, the winds were really hard. You could still see the outlines of the skates on the buildings, but the skates themselves weren't there anymore. It was pretty scary, but we'd figure if we HAD to suffer a hurricane, we wouldn't want to be anywhere other than at Disney. They handled the situation VERY well. Technically no one was allowed inside the main food court by Florida law or something (we were told to remain in our tiny room for 18 hours - yeah, right!) but the food and stuff was open after the big part of the storm had passed through. Mickey, Pluto, Donald, and Goofy were also on hand for meet n greets in the lobby. They were the best character bunch I've ever seen, really into their part - especially Donald and Goofy. They were fighting left and right.

The Fantasia pool was so flooded, you couldn't tell where the pool was! There was water everywhere! Thankfully, the parks opened the next day and it was as if nothing had happened at all - all the CMs were on hand, the parks were spotless, every building standing and open. And lucky for us, our Cinderella Castle breakfast reservations weren't cancelled!!!!

Here's a pic from Donald and GOofy during the Hurricane:

Technically, that's not a Pop pic, so I get to post another one today!
