Lovely photos and narrative of Main Street. How nice you have a history with generations old and new. I just adore Main street like you. I am never in a hurry. When I need to go to a place of inner calm in life. Main Street is my togo.
I do wish more people would duck into the hidden away places on Main Street. There are so many places where Disney displays its art and history, has little historic animations playing, one-of-a-kind shopping, but more than just shopping, artisans actually working. I just love it.
They changed the sign in WDW so that it now says Magic Kingdom and not The Magic Kingdom I heard recently.
Oh, good to know! I hadn't heard that!
Love those vehicles. Plus those ballloons. Soon be in the hand of some excited guest.
I've have never in my life bought one, but they sure are fun to see and photograph.

Love the halloween balloons in the evening too! Great firework shots.
YES! Nice touch with the party specific balloons. Main Street becomes even more magical during a Halloween party.
Thank you for the walk down Main street. I adore the smell. Sweet popcorn, horses ... An explostition from a parade.
Oh you're very welcome! I"m so glad you enjoyed it. And yes!! I"m looking forward to the MSEP on this trip I'm headed to! Squeeeeee!!!
This is so true. I think that is why it is such a great escape (both Disney and Disney with Booze lol)
See?!

So glad to hear it!! I was worried.
All's well that ends well. (Phew! Majorly dodged a bullet there!)
Love your Main St. pics. And you are right...you don't want to "skip" it...sadly there never seems to be enough Disney time to take it in properly. I find that on entry, you are always in such a panic to beat the crowds to the rides...and on exit you are usually too wiped out to be able to appreciate everything properly...or maybe that is just me lol. I need a loooong Disney vacay...with enough time to really enjoy the details and not rush around!!
I think a long trip makes all the difference in the world for seeing things one normally wouldn't. You'd be amazed at the little details there that are too often over-looked. But, yes, sadly, I get the rush on the front end and the exhaustion at the other... hard to burn the candle at both ends sometimes.
