6/16/14 Walt Disney World Photo Report (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs)
In an effort to best keep you updated with what is going on at Walt Disney World, we will be providing a comprehensive photo report every Monday. Should we attend anything of note during the week, we will of course continue to post videos and smaller photo reports on other weekdays, but Monday will offer the largest and most detailed on a weekly basis. With that being said, let’s dive in and see what’s new as of June 16th, 2014:
Avatar construcvtion is in full swing at Animal Kingdom and you can clearly see the cranes over the tree-line from the parking lot
A Lion King musical “ocarina” mug is now for sale at the Harambe Popcorn cart
It comes with sheet music to show you how to play a few Disney songs
Some work happening by this gate between Africa and Asia
Walls also up by Creature Comforts on Discovery Island
Moving on to Disney Springs, work continues on Food Truck Park on the West Side
More of the elevated area that is supposed to be abandoned train tracks has appeared in the park area
A soccer store called United World Soccer has opened on the West Side, just in time for the World Cup
The store was quite busy on Saturday, but it was Car Masters Weekend
Pleasure Island continues its conversion into The Landing
Construction finally happening in the old Harley-Davidson location
The waterway between Pleasure Island and Marketplace is behind walls, also, one of the old PI train ticket booths is gone
Work continues outside of Fulton’s and Portobello
The latest progress on the new Marketplace bridge
The area between T-Rex and the LEGO store is a mess right now
Reminds me of 2010 at Disney California Adventure
The former site of Pollo Campero
Looking towards World of Disney
If you go this way, you will be funneled into LEGO
A look at the lake from the LEGO area
I hit Marketplace Co-Op to pick up some things and also tried my hand at creating a phone case. The process is fairly simple…
Moving over to Epcot, removal of the Flower and Garden Festival is still taking place… more on that later…
The Odyssey is actually open and hosting World Cup viewing all-day long
Come on in!
The interior is nicely decorated
There’s even a physical board they will update through the rounds of the World Cup
Tables and chairs are set-up inside, but there are also some cushy leather chairs in the first two rows in front of the big screen
The side pockets of the room are also filled with chairs and smaller screens
Some modest food offerings inside as well
There’s even a store filled with Epcot World Cup merchandise!
So, where the butterfly garden was located, apparently the workers hit a water main and now the entire area is being excavated…
No Figment comics remaining at Imagination!, they sold out pretty quick
As a result of the damaged water main, the Imagination! waterfall is off
Some ponds in the area have been drained as well
Olaf carrot cake cupcake for sale at the Main Street Bakery
There’s also a Frozen cupcake
We had dinner at the Be Our Guest Restaurant last night…
It had been a little while since we had been here, but the menu again had some new additions and price hikes
The current kid’s menu
The grey stuff is now offered as a dessert, served on top of a chocolate cake. It was still delicious!
