Our last handful of trips to Walt Disney World have had a major social media presence to them. During our May 2009 trip, I was very limited in sharing items with everyone back home. I was able to send some Facebook photos, but few and far between. By the time we went back to the first Disney Social Media Moms in February 2010, tweeting photos was part of my repertoire. Things continued to magically change as I entered the world of smartphones and more apps allowed me to share memories in real time. During my last visit with TechyDad for the opening of New Fantasyland, we were sharing on Instagram immediately. I adore this way because I can tweet them, share on Facebook, and also connect with a large Disney community right on Instagram. Here are a few of my December 2012 Instagram Disney memories.

I love using instagram when we’re at Disney! I just wish my battery life on my phone was better :)
Hilary´s last blog post ..Disney Wordless Wednesday
Hilary, I actually bought an external battery for my phone before our trip in April 2012. It was the best investment and really worked well. I wrote about it because it saved me during a session with Ridley Pearson.
Great shots, love the castle picture with all the lights. Thanks for sharing!
Sean @DisneyDayByDay´s last blog post ..Wordless Wednesday
Thanks Sean! When I was taking that photo I hoped it would be something magical.
Your pictures are so much fun. The shot of the castle is amazing but I must admit, your photo of Ursula is my favorite!
Thanks so much Gayle! Ursula really was fun to see in that scale. Walking around that area was so much fun.
Great shots, especially the castle lights! I have started doing more instagramming during our trips and will be doing a lot more during our D23 Expo trip in 3 weeks. Gotta remember to bring a battery backup :-)
Thanks for sharing this week!

DIStherapy´s last blog post ..“it’s a small social media world”
I love the world of social media, especially when it involves Disney :)
It’s interesting how trips to the parks have changed with social media. I always love seeing “live” photos from the parks. :)
It really is fun to see how much things have changed over the last few years. The Disney community of live photos is always there.
Great pics, I love them — I hope to see you at one Beth …

Thanks Deb :) Instagram is so much fun to follow along with so many Disney friends. I keep forgetting that I finally launched the new look this weekend. Ironing out a few glitches, but I really like the more clean feel.
I think i just stared at your Disney collage of photos for about 5 minutes – lol! SO FUN! I agree, I’m really loving instagram… I’ll have to track you down over there. :) Thanks for putting together this fun group of vacation memories – makes me smile and dream of my family’s next trip! Always more fun awaiting. :)
