• The new Cove Tower is starting to rise near Fantasia Mini Golf.
• Passing the former entrance to Disney Hollywood Studios. Roadwork underway. The bridge is supposed to be removed at some point too.
• 9:24am, about 20 minutes from room to walking toward security. Amazing how fast you get around when you have nothing scheduled.

• Flamingos in the garden area too.
• The otters were out playing/eating.
• I am not a fan of the bubble/light/toy carts that seem to be out all over the parks. They have nothing to do with the theme and the merchandise bothers me. They seem to be playing to the lowest common denominator to make a quick buck too.
