Green lights: BTW, that's some shallow DOF! I must confess...I can't quite place what it is...but it's pretty.
It's the fiber optic sidewalk at EPCOT . Yes, I'm a crazy person. I got down on the ground for that one, LOL! Here are some Christmas decorations from 1994:
I'm seeing the marketplace (and nice to see someone else digging through the archives)...here's a wider view of the marketplace:
That was taken from my balcony at the Wyndam Palace hotel, one of the few times I've stayed outside of Disney hotels. I took 2 nights there in Nov 05 before switching to my OKW villa for the remaining 3, mostly because I planned that trip very late. It's a very nice hotel and for being a technically 'off property' hotel, as you can see it's about as close as you could ask for. It's right across the street from Marketplace, and also from the Marketplace bus stop, which made it easy to take a bus to one of the Disney resorts and catch internal boats or busses from there. The room was fairly high - I'm guessing here, but something like 19th floor - and facing marketplace with a view to Epcot and MGM as well as much of the surrounding LBV and Kissimee landscape.
Our holiday tale is a tale that's quite charming. But during this season, it's sometimes alarming. So relax and reflect, feel free to take pause....while we tell you a tale about dear Sandy Claws....
