There's a restaurant, placed in Catemaco's Lake...
Sorry by the focus in some parts, but, it was a dark dark place! |

This shot is of the original Downtown Disney which was followed shortly afterwards by the Downtown Disney Westside. Downtown Disney which is open to the public, with plenty of free parking, serves as the shopping,dining and entertainment hub of the massive Walt Disney World Resort. This area only has dining and shopping, including quite a few highly unique stores and restaurants. It is a popular place to enjoy after a day at the theme parks or before guests head to the airport as you can find practically any kind of Disney branded product you can imagine, from inexpensive plastic trinkets to hundreds of Disney stuffed character toys to specialty art, jewelry and crystal costing thousands of dollars. If you look under Mickey and Minnie over the doors to the World of Disney Store you will see two cast members in costume. They are a part of the Disney magic as their only job, so far as I could tell, was to sprinkle fairy dust (glitter) on the heads of little girls. I have heard it speculated that Disney caters more to little girls as studies show that it is the women of the family who usually set the vacation plans, so Disney tries to enchant them young so they bring their own families back when they reach adulthood. |

This Victorian Council-run Lido fell into dis-repair in the late 1980s and was closed and derelict for many years. Arne Rigner of the Glass boat Company took on the enormous task of rebuilding the Lido and developing into a popular swimming pool, health spa, cafe and top class restaurant. It is in a little back street in residential Clifton. |

Mount Dora (Mt. Dora) is a pretty little historic town just to the Northwest of Orlando. This picture was taken Sunday February 8th, 2009 during the always popular Mount Dora Arts Festival. Down at the water you can see the tour boat riddes while down the tracks you can see the refurbished passenger train. |

This is the second shot I took here (and appeared in twice) at the lovely Clifton Lido. Try their custard tarts but leave one for me! This was done on auto setting and apart from the sky seems to have worked better than the previous manual one. The newly re-furbished Victorian Lido which lay derelict for almost 20 years is now a health spa, swimming pool and super restaurant. |

There is a better view if you click on, "View in Google Earth." Cheddars is close to WestPark Tollway and the Beltway and is where a lot of oil-field business is discussed during lunch. The restaurant is blocking the view of the many, many office buildings that are close by. Note: 15 minutes after this GigaPan was taken, there were no parking spaces to be found in this lot. |
