Downtown Disney Marketplace, Orlando

Downtown Disney Marketplace is located at 1780 East Buena Vista Dr., Orlando.  The main reason why I visited this place is because they have a Lego store there.  There are a lot of restaurants in Downtown Disney and you have a lot of dining options to choose from.  Parking and admission are free at this market place,  so it's nice to stop by and spend a nice afternoon here.

 Here I come Walt Disney World Resort.

 T-Rex, one of the restaurant in this Disney district.

 ???!!  This bird is taking a sunbath?!!

 I've never seen a bird taking sunbath like this...  Well, this is a double-crested cormorant.  Its feathers are not waterproof so it must spend time drying them out after spending time in the water.

 There are a lot of places to take pictures in this marketplace.

 Another eatery.

 There are 3 piers in the area offering complementary boat service between East and West of the marketplace.

 Paradiso 37, another eatery place.

 This is our boat captain.

 I specifically wanna come to this Lego place because I saw something like this online.

 I guess these are rare Lego pieces which you don't see it in every Lego box.

 There are a whole wall of these rare pieces to choose from.

 Flowers, I remembered they have these flowers in yellow as well.  I used to play Lego when I was young but not anymore now...  =)

 These are just ordinary pieces I guess.

I've never seen these grey pieces before...
