Maria's Space

I am joining my friend Maria over at Maria's Space who hosts this fabulous photography meme called Color Carnival where you post a photo you have taken of something colorful and link up to her blog. Then return on Thursday to vote for your favorite photo.

Here is my submission for the week, it is my idea of what summer really looks like. This is the Grand Floridian at Walt Disney World. We had the privilege of staying there for the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration. The cast members there were fabulous as well as the accommodations. I would LOVE to go stay there again some day.

Congratulations to Jama who won last weeks Color Carnival with her lovely photo. Now, let's see your best colorful photo, I know you all are wonderful photographers, and then link up to Maria's Space, then return on Thursday to vote for your favorite.


Have a terrific weekend and don't forget to keep your camera at the ready!
