Favorite Water Features
Hey guys. For those who listen to Lou Mongello, you might have already heard his Top 10 Water Features podcast, but I want to know some of your favorite water features in Disney World.
Personally, I always love the waterfall at the old Tomorrowland Skyway Bucket loading building. Very pretty. Also, I love the little river with the bridge in the Wilderness Lodge.

Also going with Epcot, but the fountain on the way to Figment/captain Eo. I love the way it looks like a waterfall flowing upwards!

No, I didn't mean the "waterrise" at Imagination. I meant the dancing fountains inbetween the communicor...er...Innovations pavilions. Originally Posted by Zipadeedooda

Re: Favorite Water Features
I've never seen them in person, but the water effects at California Adventure for the "World of Color" show are amazing!

Re: Favorite Water Features
Oh yes! My boyfriend pointed that out to me last time and we took a picture in front of it. That's a good one! I never knew as a kid because I was more worried about the rides.It's funny how you appreciate the scenery and landscaping too as you grow up Originally Posted by Zipadeedooda

Re: Favorite Water Features
I love going from Ft. Wilderness to Magic Kingdom on the boat! A relaxing way to start or end your day. How about Splash Mountain, too?
