Goodness, Gracious, Great Balls o' Disney!

DAY 5

Today, more fun with boring finance stuff... though I think it was more accounting stuff this time. Well, whatever it was, you won't be subjected to any of that here. Instead, I have pictures from after the presentations, where I got to go into the city for some walking and eating.

After packing up the show gear and changing into warmer clothes (it's been very cold here), I walked to the train station. On the way, I had to snap this picture because something had bothered me about a change that was made at Disney Village. Indeed, since the last time I was here, they'd removed the ugly strings that went between the ugly copperelle and stellette towers and added GIGANTIC, GLOWING SPHERES.

Why? Why was this done? What they should have done is torn down all those ugly towers entirely. But Disney does not seem capable of making wise creative decisions at the parks these days, especially not in the Paris parks. This place is almost Disney, but not quite.
