Expedition Everest

The newest roller coaster at Disney - Animal Kingdom's Expedition Everest. Trent & I couldn't wait to ride this one. So much fun. I wasn't aware that it switched directions twice. That caught my be surprise on our first ride. But I loved every minute of it.


The main photo is one I took. I found the Yeti photo online at WDWmagic.com. I had my camera safely tucked away during the ride - crazy or not, I always fear it flying out of my hand especially on roller coasters! So no Yeti shots by me.

For a personalized embellishment, I created this cancellation stamp in Photoshop using the Everest logo downloaded from Wikipedia. I've made a template of the cancellation without the logo. If you'd like to try it on a project, simply download the psd file HERE and edit the text. :)


Supplies/Credits: Graph paper from After Midnight kit at Peppermint Creative; paper clip & label from Craft Jar kit at Peppermint Creative; curled photo frame by Katie Pertiet; polaroid frame from It's About Mom kit at Two Peas; fonts: Tall Paul, Chelsea Studio, 2Peas Crate and BankGothic. Inspired by Feb 9/10 of dw2008.

  1. This is great! Love the old photo look. Simple and well done. Always my favorite style!
    I also think you are very brave. First for just plain riding the RC and second for taking your camera on board. I'm a huge pansy when it comes to RC's!

  2. Thanks for the cancellation stamp file. And way to go for using a web image on your layout. Great thing about vacation layouts, if ya go anywhere halfway famous. Always some good photos to use on the web, if we don't snap every little thing.

  9. Great LO! Gorgeous photo!

    I love Disney! Before we moved here in 2005, we had annual passports to Disneyland. We would go at night just to catch a parade, dinner or a few rides. We would be there at least a couple times a week. Never got old! We really miss it!

  10. Really awesome LO, Sarah! That photo is beautiful, and I love the stamp/logo! I'm afraid I'd be sitting this ride out, though! Too chicken for that! :-)
