Ok, mini panic attack here. Now, this may not be a big deal to most people, and I admit it won't ruin my trip, but out of all the closures and rehabs, this is freaking me out the most:
go to this thread and check out the 2nd picture, it's of mainstreet: What is this monstrosity?!?!?
Ok, so for most people, it's an eye sore and they deal, but honestly, I can't believe I haven't heard that this thing was there on mainstreet previously. I'm a PHOTOGRAPHER. I'm spending the majority of money I have to souvenirs on renting a LENS b/c to me, the best souvies are PHOTOS. THIS mainstreet will not do! I can't take a picture of that!
If anyone knows how long it's been there, maybe I could convince myself that it will be gone in 3 weeks? It looks like it's been there the whole time the Christmas decorations have been up b/c the xmas decorations stop right at it like it's been there the whole time?
Sigh...I really wanted that mainstreet shot of my kids and the castle. *sniff*
(disclaimer, if you think I'm just a big complainer, I am, but it won't ruin our trip and I'll get over it long before we arrive. Thank goodness I saw this shot before going though, I would have been more bummed to just arrive and see it. Blech. )
OMG! That is hideous! I can't imagine they plan to have it up long, though, because if they did it would be better camouflaged. When we were there in March there were tarps up on a couple of Main Street buildings but they were printed to look like the buildings behind them so they weren't that obtrusive. (Like this: http://wdwnewstoday.com/archives/5950) Or maybe that's just the first step in putting up the "pretty" tarp?
