The only webcam that I know of is on the Swan/Dolphin resort's website. You can see Spaceship Earth but it's in the distance.

last year sometime I was watching people in Magic Kingdom, I think the camera was on the balcony of the train station or somewhere close to the centre where you start the walk down main street to the castle.

Thanks anyway though:mickey:

They used to have some year's ago (pre 9/11) but they turned them all off as a security measure. Might have been an old loop you saw...

I do remember that as well. It was really cool, but I think the only thing they have for that now is reruns or something like that because they took down the link to the camera. (some computer thing anyway).
I always like watching that too.

They had a webcam at MGM also. I used to check them out all the time along with Universal's.

I would love it if they had a webcam focused on the castle, that you could watch to see wishes each night.

I think it would be spectacular to be able to see the fireworks at Christmas and New YearsEve as well. Even to just watch the castle changing colors.

Disney is like my heroin, and I need my fix.

Yes they did have a live webcam years ago from Main St. station pointed toward the castle, and there was one in MGM. The timing of it closing didn’t dawn on me but CleveSJM is right, they took it down shortly after 9-11.

There's a "virtual" webcam of MK Main Street at http://www.wdwlive.com/web-cam.html. It's really just old clips that they play - most recent is over a year old. But fun to watch once in a while.

The only real webcam is at the Swan & Dolphin, and it's been down for over two weeks. It goes down sporadically but usually come back within a month or so. It's normally listed at www.instacam.com (just search the state of Florida) but it's not up currently.

Google Earth.

It's not live movement but it's still pretty darn cool! You just download it to your computer and then type in where you want to go (literally, anywhere) and before you know it you're looking at the layout of the Epcot resorts. ;)

Even the Animal Kingdom had one. It makes sense to get rid of them, but to us harmless fans, we miss it.
I always put it on when I needed a fix.
