Vizcaya Museum & Gardens (lots of pics)

Just wanted to share some photos I took of Vizcaya Museum & Garden. Unfortunately, we can not take picture of the Museum (I got in trouble for that) so here is a link to their website where they have pictures of the museum.

No, that was a party for the new Condo in Panama. The singer that was there bought the first suite, and Enrique Iglesias bought the second one. He was supposed to be there, but didn't show up. I sooooo wanted to see him!

Yes, I'm going to DW in a few weeks. I can't wait to see the Halloween decorations at Magic Kingdom. They are pretty!

Wow you go to the fancy places with the big wigs. Like your Donald Trump party.

I think Disney World should give you free tickets by now. Do you know what they will do at Epcot?

I love this place, I remember going on field trips there as a little girl as well as a few ren faires. This place is so beautiful! Great pics btw!

EPCOT's birthday was yesterday. They had a nice ceremony in the morning with fireworks, and at night after IllumiNations they had some nice fireworks. They prepared EPCOT to look like it used to in 1982. They took down the Epcot sign with the mickey arm and wand. and they put the old logo back....like the one in my avatar.

You can see pictures here of the ceremony and the video of the fireworks at night.

As far as Halloween decorations at Epcot, they didn't do anything because of Food & Wine.

This is how EPCOT looks:

and this is how Magic Kingdom looks with the Halloween decorations. You have to scroll down a little bit. It's the article of Sept. 10th.
