DHS - General Scenery and Non-Attraction Thread

It's getting dark and it's nearly Christmas. Everyone head to DHS to see the Osborne Lights.


Holiday Hat

 

Christmas time at Disney MGM Studios.


Hollywood Holidays

 

It's a lot easier to love now that it's gone.

 

Another one for the Hat fans.


Watch Where You Point That Thing

 

It's Neon Hour at Adrian and Edith's.


Head to Toe and GO

 

Flowers delivered to your garden, by the bucketload.


Enchanted Gardener

 

It's not the Great Movie Ride any more and Goofy hasn't arrived with the train yet, so it's just another building.


Closed Doors

 

When skies are cloudy, take the Red Car to Paradise Pier.


Sunny Beach

 

A little rain falls. The weak-willed head for the exit, leaving the park nearly empty for those of us who know the rain will pass.


Heading for the Exit

 

It's the rainy day crowd flow: people with ponchos and other rain gear enter the park while the unprepared and drenched leave.


Undampened Spirits

 

This photo and the two above were all taken on the same afternoon. It was the last day of my trip and I had a late flight home. This final photo was taken on my way out of the park. I had to stop at Old Key West to pick up my luggage then head to the airport. Unfortunately, as I was riding the parking tram, the skies opened up. My car was parked as far away from the tram stop as possible, so by the time I got there, I was thoroughly soaked.

Once I got my luggage, I changed out of my wet clothes in the car, which, as you probably know, is never easy. It was a really great way to end a trip.

Strangely, a similar thing happened to me five months later at Disneyland. The final day of my trip was a rare rainy day in southern California. After getting soaked in the parks, I had a 3/4 mile walk to my hotel. I spent a couple of hours with an iron and blow dryer trying to dry out my clothes before packing the suitcase.


The Calm Between the Storms

 

It's a great place to live. Great view, dining nearby, lots to do. As they say, it's all about the location.


Location, Location, Location

 

Christmas on Sunset Boulevard is pretty simple. At least it is in the daytime, before they light up that big building at the end of the street.


Hollywood Stars

 

Someday I really need to pay attention to how these lights work. Half the time the light anf flag are out of sync. It kind of looks like the red light has just lit and the flags are starting to change.


Stop and Go

 

Those dentists sound like names from a Three Stooges short.
