And DL across the way will only have one (or two, if the window by the lockers on Main Street is open). That just seems like a very strange balance. Then again, I suspect that the Cones will operate a lot like the eateries in Toontown, where they're seldom all open. At least in Toontown, the CMs can easily pass between them to get things that aren't normally sold at that window. The Cones will be completely separate (which makes it really inconvenient if people in your party want different things)
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I just realized that one of the windows in Toontown has soft-serve, so DL does have another ice cream place (and if you want, you can count the Dole Whip place too). It's strange that they decided to name the place on Buena Vista Street "Clarabelle's", when there's already an ice cream-serving "Clarabelle's" elsewhere in the parks...

The one thing that I don't like more than anything else in a Theme Park (esp a Disney one) is a closed shop or restaurant (I don't care what the reason is - it SHOULD be open). If there ARE too many Ice Cream Shops, then one (or more of them) might be closed - and that is bad show. Better to have more variety...but who knows, it might just work. I sure hope that it does!
