Photo Album – Downtown Disney After Dark

Posted on by Lisa Berton
During my vacation to Walt Disney World in September of 2008, Barrie said we should go out and shoot at night and so we did.

Our skycap told us that number of travelers for Labor Day Friday and Sat, compared to last year, was down over 50%! WOW. Same was true for our Southwest Flight.
