Sunday(Mothers Day) we started off with an early round of golf at Lake Buena Vista
There were several firetrucks and this ambulance that were heading away from Downtown Disney (East toward EPCOT). Our guess was they were participating in the Triatholon events
Spotted this pontoon boat cruising down a side river/canal/creek not sure the term
The entrance to the Tree House Villas which officially open in June
The work appears to be complete (and we talked to a couple castmembers who said they had an open mouse (house) a few days before our trip.
A walking path leading to the villas
Saratoga Springs
Back to the room to take showers before lunch since we finished our round so quickly
Killing some time while waiting for the others so I ventured out to take some shots of the Contemporary
The bridge to the new Bay Lake Tower
I thought this was a nice shot with the monorail
The large glass area on the right as you look at the building is where the elevators are
The top of the elevator area
A closer look at one of the grand villas
A random monorail shot
Most of the landscaping looks to be in place
Noticed the observation deck (or whatever they are calling it now on the 4th floor) has what looks like new speakers (or at least recently cleaned)
The walkway to enter the new bridge (there was a fence between me and this
The sign inside asking you to use the other door not the one that leads to the new walkway
I promised more shots of the marketplace
Off to EPCOT
Spotted Daisy and Stitch out for pictures, seemed like an odd combination to be at the front of EPCOT
Walls up around the old Jr Chef area in the Land (talked to a couple CMs and no one knew what was planned or at least would not share).
Noticed this large stroller parking area.. I believe this is relatively new, I cannot remember if it was here last trip or not. I think/thought this was all grass and a curb.. this is closer to the Land but between the Land and Living Seas. The second one near the Seas sculpture I remembered.
Our destination for lunch
Dessert time
After lunch even fewer strollers were using the parking area
Noticed the Living with the Land boat ride had a birhday fastpass running, the line was maybe 5 minutes.
Now a series of shots from the Behind the Seeds walking tour of the Land greenhouses
Our guide.
Our tour group stopping to feed the fish
Back outside after the tour (and Soarin)
Wanted to take the boat across and this dock was closed
So we hiked over to the other side
While waiting snapped a few shots of Morocco with the Tower of Terror in the background
Noticed some tables along the walkway and the benches were gone.
The Kim Possible location as you enter World Showcase
After dinner it was back to the room to watch Wishes
The water parade going by
Then it was off to the Magic Kingdom for their extended night hours
On the way snapped some night shots of the Bay Lake Tower
At night the elevators are clearly visible
A random monorail shot
And you can see into the Grand Villas a bit
Back to the elevators
The sign was lit up
The lobby still had a lot of scaffolding up
Another Grand Villa
The entrance from Ground Level
To close with a set of castle shots
