The gallery is lovely, I will always miss the original one and sitting on the balcony overlooking NOS, but they have done a very nice job on turning the bank building into the gallery. Lots to look at and explore.

But I would suggest that you NOT identify yourself to any of your co workers as that piratebrittany girl that frequents laughingplace. Keep your work life separate from your private life!

I'm SleepingBeauty82!" Ha! Can't wait. Are you working this Saturday? My fiance and I will be there in the afternoon/evening.

It makes sense to have these exhibits next door to the Walt Disney Story and close to one of the original Main Street locations for "Disneyland coming attractions models exhibition." Note-I'm aware Blue Sky Cellar is in DCA, but most of the attractions in BSC are going into DCA not DL, so that exhibition location of DCA coming attractions at DLR seems practical.
