Flowering Plants

I always love gardening. I just stayed home waiting for job to come to me...hahaha, kidding, I am just having this gardening to keep me busy. Here are some of the plants that survive the summer heat.
Though we have so many withered plants which I can't save really, I am satisfied that some survive.
The periwinkles survive because it grows through most of the year. It grows well in shaded areas without water and will grow fine in direct sunlight if watered occasionally.
This plant, I forgot the name....heheehe. More flowers in here.
I planted those flowers in the middle area- shown here.
I planted some seeds in a flower pot and have it grown already. I will transfer this in the ground once it's ready.
Here are the other flowers in that flower bed in the middle.
We have roses too at the front yard, they bloom a lot. We have less than 10 varieties of roses in the garden. How about you? Do you have a garden?

The Birds and the Beach

See the pictures below? These little dots-like creatures are birds on the beach. They just stay in flocks. They are not intimidated with the presence of people. These are the birds that we sometimes feed. Its fun because they hop on your hands.
A nice day at the Schooner area of Biloxi, Mississippi.
Schooner
There were private boats here and also for tourists that goes to the Deer Island nearby. You see the island in the picture too.
Enjoy your Sunday friends.

The Backlot Tour Continues

I have now time to post some of the pictures I took during my travel at Disney World. This attraction in Hollywood Studio is called Backlot Tour. It will show the tourists all the tricks of movie making and all the movie magic. This is the last phase of the tour that I so loved to experience on and on and on.
I love the backlot tour because I don't need to walk and all I would do is take pictures, sit, relax and enjoy the tour. In this area, the driver will stop and tourists will experience the earthquake, fire and flood. If you have a child with you, inform the child that it's fake and nothing to be scared of.
In here, tons of flowing water heading to your direction plus the earth is shaking. Scary right? Well, the water will flow underneath before it hits you. You will get wet though because of the splashes if you sit at the left side. Other that, tourists are safe in this spectacular attraction. You should visit this if you are in Hollywood Studio, Disney World in Orlando.
That is a train carrying tanks of gas and it was caught on fire. It will really explode and you will feel the heat but, so far it's safe...LOL. You will feel your face burning really. Some of the tourists were scared and others will just stare blankly and grin. As if waiting and on guard. LOL. As for me, the first time, I was fascinated but, at the back of my mind, "What IF"? LOL.
These water are tremendous and I was really moving to the right side because it seems it will drown us...LOL. There is no way to get out, we are trapped. One kid was shouting, "lets go, got scared!". Anyway, later though he was enjoying and had fun.
See the propane tank? Yep, it will give this area a blast! Of course, Disney makes it safe for the tourists and did this attraction for fun and entertainment. You should try it, I highly recommend this attraction.
As we moved in this area. We are just saying oh, wow. Boring, this is it? Then, when the car/bus stopped, the adventure begins. Boom....LOL! It is like you are inside a movie.
This is the picture before the "ACTION". I say, hmmm....boring...LOL! Then, it happened. It was a blast! Dang! Love to do it again and again.
As the fire, earthquake and flood subsides. Ohh my goly wowww. This backlot tour is amazing! On this day, I came back twice...hehehe. The other visit that we have, twice too. So, I have four visits and I want to do it again. LOL! Oppsss.

Road Trip to Pensacola

These pictures were taken last April when we are on our way to Pensacola, Florida. These pictures were still in Alabama though. Notice the tall buildings? The right way is heading to the Carnival Cruise Ship. I posted the pictures of the view on that side already. I mentioned in my other posts that those bildings are my favorites in this area. They stand so tall and grand. Amazing design too. That huge building by the way is the RSA Battle House Tower, the tallest building in Alabama.
Heading to the tunnel now. Remember the movie Daylight? If something like that happen in here, anybody will be trap really. Under the sea tunnel. Scary huh!
When you are at the middle of the tunnel, all radio, GPS and cellphones are dead. The tunnel is under the water/sea.
This is the exit of the tunnel. As you can see on the sign, it has an arrow that says, Battleship Park in Alabama. We will plan a trip to visit that place and I will take pictures to show you the old battle ships.
Oh, I like this view. Thanks for stopping by.

How Orlando,Florida Got Its Name

Click the picture to read the story behind the city name of Orlando. You can find this stone memorial in downtown Orlando. This place is nice to hang out. The view is spectacular and there are so many restaurants with in the vicinity and shops too. Be sure that you park your car in the right parking lot. Or else, your car will be towed away.
There are so many kinds of birds here. They like to swim the lake (of course) and some people feed them too. They are not shy to the people who are enjoying their presence.

This is Lake Eola pathway and it circle the whole park. Tourists and locals blend in and enjoying the view of this place. Some do their jogging activities, others walk their dogs and there are people who set up a picnic.
This is the beautiful view of Lake Eola. When you visit this place at night time, you will enjoy the different colors of the lights at the center of the lake.
The birds are having fun in their own territory. You can feed them close by and touch them. As long as you will not alarm them with your movements. Ohh, nearby, there are homeless people that may ask your pennies. It's up to you to share. Just be careful in every places you go. I will have more pictures tomorrow.

Disney World's Indiana Jones in Orlando

These are the pictures taken at Hollywood Studio, Orlando Florida. One of the parks that you can visit in Disney World and Indiana Jones, is just one of my favorite attractions. Today, the show will be cancelled in memory of a tragic accident to one of their stuntmen. The name is Anislav Varbanov, he was pronounced dead yesterday after injuring his head during rehearsal on a tumbling roll for the "Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular." This news was published in http://www.myfoxorlando.com/dpp/news/osceola_news/081709_Disne_stunt_performer_dies
I like this atractions because they will tell you the movie magic but, though there are so many tricks in this stage show, their stunts are real.
As you can see, they use fire, gas and at the audience area, you can feel the heat of the explosion. Safety precautions were observed though.
This is where the stuntment, jump from those tall buildings. No matter how careful they are with all their movements, accidents do happen to stuntmen. I gave them a THUMBS UP for the wonderful show they always put up on stage. I salute the stuntmen of DISNEY. They deserve that.
All these stage props are huge. The brains behind these show needs to be praise too for a world class show. If you visit Hollywood Studio in Disney World, watch Indiana Jones.
