Hehe, figgy pudding. Being American, I have never tried it. I am not a huge fig fan. It depends on what you are making with them. :)

Anyways, You can call me Figment, or Figgy, or Tina, or whatever, haha. (or Seaweed as well, another nickname of mine)

Yeah, that is down the same walkway as during the day, walking away from the Club Cool, parallel to the fountain. You can see the wall that was up when they were working on the fountain, if you look carefully.

O.k. I won't call you "Figgy", we sometimes refer to Figment as that.

Anyway, here's a shot of SSE at night from our last trip 12/09:

Awesome. I guess that is Disney's way of giving you that subtle hint to get out of the park. Do they also make a closing announcement at EPCOT or is this all they do? I know they have something at MK and they make an announcement at DHS.

Aww... I need my own nickname then, haha! :)


Anyways, that is an awesome pic. Where was that taken from? Never seen them do that, but maybe I never looked at the right time.

It worked! Very nice photo :D I like how the people are a little blurry and in motion but the guitar is nice and clear.

Very nice.

Here's some that I added from my recent vacation. The first shot has become a tradition for me. It's TGMR neon sign.

Next is a common but IMO great close-up shot of SSE at night
Image
Finally, a unique angly of the Fountain of Nations lit up at night

I find that most of the Disney park buildings are so photogenic that it's difficult to take a bad picture! I could take pics all day!

Len, those are some great shots! (someday I'll get all mine in order and share...believe it or not, I'm still working on my TR. :shock: )

The "Goodnight" pic. was taken after Illuminations on our past trip 12/09. We were heading back to the YC so naturally we were using the back exit of the park. They put "Goodnight" in every launguage from around the WS. I thought it was pretty cool, so of course we had to stand there and wait for it to come around in English again! :wink: It was also fun b/c WS was practically empty on our way out!

I don't remember them doing a "exit" announcement Len.

Nice pics. BTW Len and theBIGyowski!
