Have You Heard of The Osborne Lights?

Have you heard of the Osborne lights. No, not the lights of the rocker Osborne but the lights of the Osborne from Arkansas. When the Arkansas neighbors of this man complained about too much sound and light radiating from the 250, 000 miles of strung lights hanging from this man's house and two neighboring houses, the light display when up for sale and Disney bought it to use for Christmas at their Hollywood Studios Amusement Park in DisneyWorld in Florida.

Jack and I had the opportunity one night while in Florida to experience this amazing display of Christmas lights. All the lights on three streets in the Hollywood Park are ablaize in lights that are electronically coordinated to Christmas carols and song. We listened thru two eight minute light shows while walking on the darkened streets. There are so many lights that Disney starts to assemble this display back in September each night after the park closes. Here are about 75 blue angels flying around a globe of the earth that says Peace on Earth.
I hope you can see how close together these lights are on the buildings. Literally every inch of the structures are covered with lights.
Lights, lights, and more lights.
Look at that tree. I caught it in blue. It changes to green and white too. Below is a brief video of the sound display.

How Jack and Joann Met Up With Little Jack

After Jack and I spent a week in a timeshare villa at Westgate and one transition night in a Ramada motel we moved into the Port Orleans Riverside Resort at Disney this past Monday and waited for our daughter Jennifer and son-in-law Terry and grandson Jack Aidan to arrive by Fast Express bus from the Orlando airport. The kids flew out from Dulles Airport in Virginia via Blue Tran early Monday morning. They said they had a great flight and that Jack Aidan enjoyed the ride with all the other little kids flying on the plane to spend the Christmas season in DisneyWorld.
Grandma was anxious to see Jack Aidan at Disneyworld. I was ready. I had Jack Aidan's stroller that we brought along in our car ready for his arrival in DisneyWorld. Soon he showed up and we ate lunch and checked into our rooms and waited for the bus to take us to the Magic Kingdom to begin our week of Disney attractions and fun.

Here is Jack in his Mickey Mouse Hat. He had no idea what he was going to see this week.
Let me just say that he was amazed and delighted.
