"It all started with a mouse..."

...in the words of the great Walt Disney..."always remember, it all started with a mouse".

What an amazing trip I had!! 4 days of paradise aboard a Disney Cruise Ship sailing through the Caribbean, basking in the sunshine and crystal-blue waters. Surrounded by calmness and great company. It was truly wonderful. Thank you to the Marsh Family, for including me and making me feel so welcome. Thank you to the Disney Staff, who run, far and away, the tightest ship in the biz. Thank you to the equator for proving such an amazing climate. thank you. thank you.

What I loved about the Disney Experience was the constant theme of believing in your dreams, living life to the fullest and never giving up. I know it seems utopian, but is it really?? I mean, who really knows?? We get so busy running from a to b and b to c and back to a again that we forget how simple it all really is. What's wrong with wishing upon a star or realizing that it's a small world after all?? What's wrong with visualizing and living a much simpler life?? Aside from a decent tan and serious recharge, I'm taking the spirit of my childhood away from that trip and appling it to my adult life going forward. I owe that to myself...I owe that to everyone whom I come into contact with.

So...some pics...




we stopped off in Nassau in the Bahamas for a day and I felt a rush of inspiration to break out the often overlooked LensBaby in my bag. Sooo much fun!! Here's some of what i came up with...










just a small sample...plenty more where that came from. If you'd like to see more, let me know and i'll post them on an online picture gallery at my secondary site...www.mindzyeart.com.

so the moral here...nothing is too big...nothing too small. If Disney started with something as small as a mouse and inspired something so huge for generations and generations...what can we do with our seemingly small things?? Believe there are no boundaries but the sky.

All the best friends...I wish you the world!
