Trust me - you'll love it. They'll go to great lengths to make sure it blends in. You'll barely even notice the outlet store's there. And quit judging the outlet store before you've seen it. >:-D

It was the last quiet spot in New Orleans Square after they took away the Disney Gallery. Now they want this too. Listen, if they're sitting and relaxing, they aren't buying and charging. Get these jerk guests off their feet and sell, sell, sell.

See that L'Ornement Magique shop? I always just walk in there, look around, then go through the door into the courtyard.
