Help me figure out where this photo was taken!!!

[DisneyLuver91]

This is a photo from a WDW trip sometime in 1993. My mom and I can't figure out where this photo was taken. I'm fairly certain it was at Downtown Disney, but she doesn't remember going there that year. I was only 18 months old so I have no recollection whatsoever. Please help!

To be honest it reminds me of a picture we have that was taken at Universal. Could ya'll have gone there as well? I am as curious as you are now. Hope you get some answers.

Never actually! We are WDW puritans haha

Thanks for your answer though!

 

[Alley7728]

I really do hope you find out... curiosity is eating at me.

At that time it would have been called "Disney Marketplace".

I scoured old maps and pictures (online) and couldn't find that playground or fountain anywhere.

Also, the background doesn't offer many clues. Any other pictures from the same day?

I think you are right....way back when Chef Mickey's was there.

There very well could be hiding somewhere in my house, but this was just a random find from an old album of my sister's. I'll have to Google the Marketplace instead of DTD! I didn't think about that! Thank you so much!

Wow, that is amazing!

I haven't seen that fountain in years. I do miss Duckburg...

 

[DisneyLuver91]

I looked at the fountain really closely and realized it was a duck! And I also saw a Mickey Mouse Club sweatshirt for sale in a window haha

There was a playground at Disney's Marketplace. It was right outside the large Disney Store. It had water sprays too. We took our DS on it the first time, we didn't know about the sprays...it was dark outside. Our DD got to experience it on her first visit...and then it was gone.

Mickey's Birthdayland was my ALL TIME FAVORITE!! They used to have cupcakes in a stand that you could buy a la carte - LOVED THEM! I could've spent my entire vacation there!
