Frosted Snow Globe

[donsullivan]

I was at MK this afternoon and while watching the SADCT parade, I noticed a little bit of an A/C and humidity problem with one of the snow globes. It ended up looking like it was frosted (or at least having a blizzard inside).

Cinderella and Prince Charming stayed fully in character throughout but you couldn't see a thing. I'm sure this happens a lot with the weather in FL but it was the first time I'd seen it.

That's Interesting. Thanx for the pics! I've never seen that happen either. I'm sure it probably happens every once in a while.

That's actually quite cool!

We saw it too, it was bizarre!

Well, sorry to burst a few bubbles, those Snow Globes are not air-Conditioned. they are air-cooled, basically just fans moving the air around. The float itself has air-conditioning in the lower-half, which makes me think there was a seal leak pushing the cold air into the bubble, causing condensation (exactly why they don't air condition them in the first place)

We were there in May and the same thing happened with several of the globes---it was raining at the time.

You are just on a roll today with putting people down..

I actaully like it, in purpose or not, it makes it seem more "fantasy like" to me.
Thanks for the pictures!! :sohappy: :wave:

You know...I was thinking the exact same thing. Every post has been so "well, aren't you just so wrong and stupid". Let up a little!

Very cool. :lol:

Awesome.....I don't know if I would be able to stay in character though. I'd be inside there drawing hidden mickeys in the condensation

Yeah, I agree and it's really annoying. I especially love this post: http://forums.wdwmagic.com/showpost.php?p=938325&postcount=6 It makes it even more funny that on the next couple of pages people prove half of the stuff he says wrong.

I love the "frosted snow globe" look. It looks really neat.

I kind of thought that it might be really disorienting from the inside. If all you could see is a white haze in all directions I suspect I'd have trouble maintaining my balance.

I wonder if the CMs created the "seal leak"... :lol:

Thanks for the pictures. It kinda looks like someone has shaken it giving it the whole snow in the snowglobe effect.
