Disney Cruise Line Introduces Fantasy – Video!

Have you ever seen a cruise ship revealed for the first time? It’s pretty amazing. Disney Cruise Line held its official “Float Out” for the Disney Fantasy in Germany, and the beautiful ship will be carrying passengers within three months!

I’ve never been on a cruise (I know, weird), let alone a Disney Cruise, but it’s on my travel wish list.

Have you ever taken your family on a Disney Cruise?

The Painted Walls of Germany

Street art is a worldwide phenomenon, people!

Breedene, Germany may not be on your to do travel list, but if you like street art you should add it. Graffiti ain’t what it used to be.

This post is part of the UpTake Public Art Series. If you see an interesting piece of public art, snap a picture and send it in. We’ll feature it on UpTake!

We’ve been inspired! This series usually showcases various pieces of commissioned public art, and we’ll continue to do so, but for the next few weeks we’re going to look at some awesome street art, too.

The Colorful Arty Shell of Museum Brandhorst

The Brandhorst Museum in Munich, Germany (or as the locals call it, Museum Brandhorst) is a classic case of art on art. The two-story building is covered in over 36,000 ceramic tiles of different colors, which makes it just as beautiful as the art it houses.

Speaking of the insides, there are over 200 exhibits including 100 works from Andy Warhol. So that’s cool.

If you find yourself in Germany, do your art-loving self a favor and check out the Brandhorst.

This post is part of the UpTake Monday Museums, Monuments and Memorials Series.

Of Swans and Castles

Not to be confused with Rick Castle.

The Hohenschwangau Castle sits at Swan Lake in Bavaria, Germany. It was the childhood residence of King Ludwig. Playdates must have rocked.

This is a Wordless Wednesday post. No more words by decree of the king (dancing is okay).
