Today mostly was a relax at the Fort day for us, grilled some burgers all hit by lightning so the burgers were a little rare but still good. Headed over to Disney Springs and everyone in the Orlando area had the same idea, the remodel and new store are very nice, but way to many people for me (I know Disney in July, what was I expecting). The World of Disney was shoulder to shoulder, but we found some shirts and goodies so we booked it on over to the Christmas Store, one of our favorites, not so packed looked around and my DW could find the princesses shoe ornament she wanted, she is collecting them, we seen it over at the Contemporary so we'll be returning there sometime. Anyways, we walked across to the Art of Disney store, very cool pictures debating on buy a couple for the house. Left there and walked around Disney Springs checking out the new stuff, making our way towards Plant Hollywood (which is closed for refurbishment). Couple of things I wanted to touch on, first the road (Buena Vista) in front of Disney Springs is redone, with the bus lanes in the middle, I noticed a quicker trip to and from Disney Springs, guessing the bus lanes help with that. Secondly I remember some talk on the board about a turning lane off of World Drive (correct me if I'm wrong) before you get to the ticket booth for MK, nothing has changed yet, no sign of and road work on the little turn off road that is already there, you still have to go in through the ticket booth and battle the buses for the right turning lane.
Anyhow tomorrow is EPCOT and we plan on being there for rope drop in the morning and trying to make the new Frozen Ride for the dw before line becomes too long, shower now, then bed,
