Well, we made it home from the Happiest Place On Earth and I have to say it was a pretty swell vacation.

I noticed some things while walking or standing behind people.


I'm not sure that this is this guy's best look.

The Merle Sneed blog questions the value of pain as an instiller of pride. "I got hit six times with that hammer and still finished out my shift. That's pride, Dude."

Sneed blog policy prohibits staff members over 21 from wearing sports jerseys. Evidently this fellow works at a less prideful organization, as painful as that is to say.

This is what the Disneyland traveler hopes to avoid. These 'class of ' people travel in unruly packs.

Horrible accident or birth defect? Either way, it was sad to see.

Pull to open.


If you can't see it...


I apologize to the Mohawk guy.


I'm running out of skin!

Are you sure you were at that famous Amusement Park? ick! Sad about the missing ear, though.

Are you judging people who choose to break norms?

Wow, those aren't the visuals I remember the last time my sister and I took our kids, circa 1987 or so.

Was that you in the last photo? When did you cut your hair? The "'toos" seemed to sprout over night.

Disney may not invite you to work on their next visitor book. ; (

It's a wave of mutilation!

You are lucky to have gotten so many pictures without getting punched.

Dennis thinks humans are desperate to be noticed and to advertise stuff like where they 're from and who they like.

You should have helped the girl with the gunshot wound on her back. (or was it just a case of flesh eating bacteria?)

Wow! Things have indeed changed in the Magic Kingdom! What would Uncle Walt think?

(I have NEVER seen hair like that second-to-last guy's...)

Hahaha...this is a very fun post of yours. Nice candid shots of the daily life. Geez, I wish I could have such luck over here taking candid shots..lol

Bobby D. said...

I think Merle did what I do when I want to get shots like these--I pretend I'm kind of a dork, and am messing around with my camera to take typical pics of my family and touristy stuff. Then when the people have their guard down, I take pictures.

If I want a portrait of say, mohawk man, I ask, (admire their hair, mention that my son shaved his head once--) and they'll pose for me. people LOVE for you to take pics of their 'skin art' eeww.

I'm afraid to take pictures of men with skullets though. I have to get over that fear.

Dennis is timid around strangers.

happy first day of summer in Arizona.

Kurt said...

Ched - here's the trick, at least if you have a companion. Just hold the camera up, point at the LCD screen as if showing a picture to your companion, and proceed to take photos of whatever you desire. This is the main reason I stay with my current companion.

Now I'm scared to ever go to famous amusement parks with my children. Thanks for saving me a lot of money.
