Daily Photo Tour - Change the Speed, Alter the Mood

A new year has begun and it's time to change the speed and alter the mood. We spent most of the holiday season posting pictures from Disneyland. It seemed appropriate to showcase Disney California Adventure today, especially since 2012 is going to be such a big year for DCA. I couldn't think of a better way to energize things than stopping off at ElecTRONica to share a glimpse of an amazing light cycle. Doesn't it feel great to have that fresh start atmosphere? I'm loving it and hope you are too. I'm really excited and hopeful for this year and all that it has in store. From a Tours Departing Daily standpoint, we have a ton of ideas to make 2012 our biggest and best year yet. We may even have some big news to share with you along the way.

Daily Photo Tour - Flynn's Arcade

I love Flynn's Arcade. Even though I don't get over there often, the nostalgia of it always brings warm feelings. It reminds me of going to arcades as a kid, the high pitched synthesized sounds, the flashing lights, the feeling of adventure and, of course, getting change for whatever bill you were able to bum from your parents. The sound of the tokens crashing into the metal tray is a symphony all on its own. Flynn's is the embodiment of the perfect arcade and it begs the question - what experience can't you find at Disney?

Daily Photo Tour - Tron

Ever since I saw Tron, I have been wanting to get back to ElecTRONica and Flynn's Arcade. We finally made it over there this weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect. When we entered the arcade it was like a scene from a movie. I knew I wanted this shot, but wasn't sure how crowded the Tron game would be. The crowd in front of us slowly parted as we made our way to the back and I saw it. A young man standing by himself at Tron. I couldn't have asked for a better scenario. We really enjoy taking pictures without people in them, but sometimes you need them. The feeling and emotion of some images are lost if left vacant.

Daily Photo Tour - End of the Line at Electronica

It's not very easy dancing with a tripod but I couldn't help it. ElecTRONica is definitely a lot of fun and I have to admit that I much prefer it to Glow Fest. Flynn's Arcade is amazing and the way Disney went all out to theme this party is awesome. It's definitely a multifaceted experience that is well worth the time.
