Just got back from spending 10 days at WDW! ;

While watching Illuminations one evening I noticed a lot of red flashers in Future World. ; When leaving I realized the flashers were from several fire trucks parked in front of and around the building which houses Club Cool. ; All of the buildings in the area appears dark and firefighters appears to be going through them. ; The Disney cast members wouldn't say anything about what was happening and dozens of them were blocking the area from Club Cool through the Art of Disney store.

The next day a cast member mentioned they had an electrical fire, but gave no details. ; Does anyone know what was damaged in ; the fire? ;

Nothing appeared to be closed the following day, but the huge fountain between Mouse Gears and Club Cool was completely drained when we arrived the next day. ; The fountain was completely drained through July 2nd when I left, but no construction appears to have been in progress. ; I'm wondering if they electronics which control the fountain were what was on fire.

I snapped the picture I've attached the day before they drained the fountain.

interesting... ; first i've heard of it. ; nice use of slow shutter during the day, btw.
 
Tim,

Thanks. ; I had hoped to get the entire fountain with the slow shutter speed, but too many people were in the way. ; We had breakfast reservations later in the week for the Princess breakfast (joys of having a 7 year old girl LOL) so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity, but the fountain was down by that time.

I had some fun with water and an ND filter throughout the entire trip. ; After awhile whenever my daughter saw a waterfall she just knew I was going to pick up the camera :)

That stage gets in the way of a GREAT fountain shot! ; LOL

BTW, you don't often hear of a fountain burning, do you? ; LOL
