Since we were in Celebration for a Farkle brunch, we were only 8 minutes from the updated Disney Springs and decided to check out the construction. Since it was near Christmas, it was CROWDED. Since much of the area was still under construction, it was REALLY CROWDED.
The Christmas decorations were ok but not spectacular, though we didn't see them at night. The shopping, restaurant village was really a showcase for Disney movies since you could buy almost anything in the shape of one of the characters. Nestled within this Disney haze were the Harley Davidson, Lego, and Ghiradelli stores. A potential highlight is the chocolate store that opened a few days later.

One thing I had not seen before was the car boats. They were fun to see on the water - though too far away for me to photograph! Here are some waiting to go out.
Of course there are also many places to eat, though most are fast food, and the Cirque de Soleil show is permanently located there. I noticed that Disney has gotten on the food truck bandwagon and has an area where several food trucks are located. These are not owned by individual chefs, but by Disney with well curated menus. Per Disney: The cuisine of each food truck reflects that of a Disney Park, with
Superstar Catering representing Hollywood Studios, and
Namaste Cafe for Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
World Showcase of Flavors bring tastes from
Epcot’s annual International Food & Wine Festival to Disney guests year round, while
Fantasy Fare features dishes from “Magic Kingdoms Around the World,” most notably the
Hand-dipped Corn Dogs in honor of Disneyland.
