A Snap, A Set and a Song - Jubilee

It's time again to link up with Thea at A Snap, A Set and A Song for this week's theme of Jubilee

Webster's Dictionary defines Jubilee as:

1. often capitalized : a year of emancipation and restoration provided by ancient Hebrew law to be kept every 50 years by the emancipation of Hebrew slaves, restoration of alienated lands to their former owners, and omission of all cultivation of the land
2. a special anniversary 
   
3. a celebration of such an anniversary
4. a period of time proclaimed by the Roman Catholic pope ordinarily every 25 years as a time of special solemnity  
5. a special plenary indulgence granted during a year of jubilee to Roman Catholics who perform certain specified works of repentance and piety 

Synonyms: carnival, celebration, fest, festivity, fete (or fête), fiesta, gala, festival

We will focus on definitions 2 and 3.

The Snap

In 1996, Walt Disney World celebrated it's 25th anniversary and as part of that celebration, decorated its most recognizable feature, Cinderella's Castle, as a birthday cake. People either loved it or hated it, but for 18 months, it stood at the center of The Magic Kingdom.

 

The Set

The theme this week was picked because of the U.K.'s Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee celebrating 60 years on the throne. Our set this week will show you things relating to 1952.

The Song

Then we head back to Walt Disney World where we began this week, for a look at Tiana's Showboat Jubilee.
