His Eye Is On the Sparrow


Yes !  I found it and figured out how to post it for your enjoyment.
This very same version of 'His Eye is on The Sparrow " has been played in the lobby at the Disney World Riverside Resort for several years !      I call that amazing !   

I call this song, Wonderful !   




p.s.  I tried to make it work on the preview.....
did it work for you? 



And I would call you pretty special if you added a little note of your own at the bottom

WDW - final thoughts



The Usual.  The Unusual.  The Interesting 












Happy to say, more women wearing dresses 



And might as well talk about some of the other women.
Shame on you !
What makes you think you can dress so scantily in this family park ?!
Guys and gals have arms full of tattoos, 
we are getting used to that
but
A top that reveals more body than top
No.  Not nice at all.   





Lots and lots of fun shoes 
































It is called pin trading...something like that.  Young and old seem to find it enjoyable.  How many pins does the writer have?    Hmm.  


 



This is my favorite  
A Dad and his daughter. 
Dressed as they please. 
Not in a hurry 




The end of a great day

WDW Final day

The Animal Kingdom 


A few highlights

There is so much to see  

And here we are 




The newest attraction is Avatar.  There are two special rides.    One is a river boat ride with music and lots of special features.   Na'vi river journey is the name.    
The other is Avatar Flight of Passage.  You will have to guess what is it like because as the park opened and we just happened to be there,   the wait line was 3 hours.   This is at 9:00 in the morning. 

So, you can guess what ride we took to get these few photos   ( it was dark and the wait line was 5 minutes )   






These fun shoes belong to another family who waited in our line  



Then we head to the African Safari  and on the way are the great street musicians.
      They are loud.   They are fun.    They are good.   









The Safari ride is part of a natural reserve.  You ride in a jeep and the experience is as close to a Safari in Kenya as I will ever get.  











See, they are all for real....and even this upside down tree is real  


Can't get enough of the flowers  







Tastes as good as it looks



All good things must come to an end

While we wait for the shuttle there is a game for kids to play

Always entertaining at Disney  








There is always music.   I love music.   And at the resort there is a jazz theme.  You do not have to listen carefully to pick up on the words....His eye is on the sparrow....Yes !! Right there at the Disney Resort.  And it has been playing, in the lobby and around the resort, for years.   I found the name of the group  and you can listen on you tube.....
Preservation Hall, His Eye Is on the Sparrow....
I wish I knew how to add the link, but, it will be worth it for you to just do it !


And that ends the journal for our trip
but, there are a few "odds and ends" to come


I live an exciting life
