Staying in a Saratoga Springs villa in the Congress Park section with a lakefront Downtown Disney view means plenty of easy opportunities for some nice night long exposures and scenics of the Marketplace, Pleasure Island, and Downtown Disney area. ; So that's exactly what I did! (Click on each photo for the best res version at 1024x) This is actually the view from my room!: A little more closeup: Harley Davidson store and the back of Pleasure Island: World of Disney and Marketplace: Wider view from the path in front of my room: Fulton's: The balloon: Cirque du Soleil: Rainforest Cafe: World of Disney and Lego: West Side: And just one daytime snap, taken in the early afternoon while walking over to the Marketplace bus stop to catch a bus to head to the parks:
I like those a lot Justin, especially the one of Fultons. ; I have stayed in Congress Park a few times and it makes for a great walk over to Downtown Disney.
Great job Justin! ; I love downtown at night. ; Great atmosphere. ; I saw that they are moving the Harley shop down by the balloon. ; I can't wait to see what it is all like when they are done with the change over to Hyperion Wharf.
Thanks Guys. ; Yeah, Paul - it's definitely expanded. ; I didn't actually go IN the Lego store this time, but while passing by noticed how they expanded to more space. ; With McDonald's gone, they have more room.
Not go in the LEGO store? ; I have to stop every time I walk by, probably the one toy I still buy that I also used as a child! :-*
Well I do still have a box of Legos stored on the top shelves of my closet, next to my matchbox car collection...the only two toys I just couldn't bear to throw or give away!
There are indeed WONDERFUL new Lego creations, as well as a store that is a LOT easier to walk through. ; It is more of a round shop inside now. ; Easier to maneuver, other than that nothing else looked "new"
From what i recall, the new lego creations are disney related now. ; I believe one is prince phillip fighting the dragon and another is snow white kissing dopey on the forehead. ; Cant wait to see them in 124 more days.
