Several years ago, Disney put out a number of black canvas sandbags along the shores of the waterway that connects Seven Seas Lagoon with Bay Lake. They put these in because”¦ Well, actually, I’m not quite sure why they put these in. I always assumed it was to secure the land from water erosion caused by the waves created by the constant boat traffic that passes through here. Anyway, it looked awful. Very un-Disney.
Yesterday, while riding the express monorail to the Magic Kingdom I noticed some construction in this area. So, later in the day I took a boat over to the Wilderness Lodge so I could get a better look. It seems that these ugly sandbags are being replaced with a permanent metal retaining wall. This is a big improvement. Even uncompleted, it looks much nicer. I’m not sure what the finished product will be, but the corrugated metal Disney is using seems to be the same material they used when building the retaining wall along the canal between the Studio and the Epcot Hotels.
