The day came to pack up and head from Cocoa Beach to our short cruise. The morning dawned bright and clear but the day promised to get rougher towards afternoon.

Some shots from April of 2015 at the Magic Kingdom

Guernsey Osprey
While stopped at an overlook of the beach and sea (with cannons) we saw an osprey fly up and hover looking for prey. Amazing shots of it hanging there. It took me a little while to get my long lens swapped in (I have a set of not very good shots from the landscape lens I had been using) but I got more than enough frames.
Guernsey Bike Riding
A wonderful bicycle ride around Guernsey. Beautiful scenery, narrow roads, very pastoral with occasional bunkers.
Our guides were great and it was very nice to be out in the air riding bikes and not in a tour bus sitting. I carried my big camera slung on my side/back. It was a bit of a nuisance, but the pictures were worth the hassle.
We stopped at a little tea house and grabbed a snack, a very tasty slice of apple pie in my case.
Guernsey Town
Coming into the harbor and on the short bus ride to the other side of the island I grabbed some shots of the areas we passed through. Beautiful old houses and interesting building (and lots of walls).
Around the Ship
Shots from around the ship during the day and at night. The lighting on the Disney ships at night is wonderful.
I think this gallery software may suffice. Open the article to see the thumbnail images and click on the images to see the full size version.
A batch of shots from Guernsey
This is just the first set containing images from the Magic looking over the harbor…more to come from the excursion.
The day started overcast with occasional patches of sun shining through the clouds. By the time we headed over for our bike ride, it was a gloriously sunny day.
Some Disney Shots…
I’m going to post some of my better Disney shots here as time permits. Here are a few to get things started.
