Four Seasons / Disney

Interesting possibilities for future development. I wonder how much
input Disney will have on design, etc. Read on...


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The Walt Disney Co. said on Monday it has sold
298 acres of land to Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts for a hotel and
golf course to anchor a previously announced luxury development in
Florida.



Disney did not disclose the terms of the deal but said the facility
would enable the company to tap into the luxury travel market. The
deal was the first for the two companies.

The plans call for a 445-room Four Seasons hotel, an 18-club
championship golf course, and Residence Club time shares, as well as
custom single and multi-family vacation homes.

The expansion will be located on the northeast border of Walt Disney

Where is this exactly in terms I can understand? What park is it
near, etc?

As maps go, the property is far to the right of the MK, to the right of Bay
Lake. It is considered a 'buffer' property and I guess they decided to build
it up as the area outside WDW property is getting built up. That's the
simple anyway.

PS. Keane, fountain diet coke has saccharin instead of the other sweetener
because of problems with the other sweeteners and the heat that fountain
syrup can be subjected to. Apparently in that concentration the sweeteners
can go poison. I saw this on the Coke site some time ago.

Keane sweetie,

I am with you. Diet Coke is the best. I never drank Coke for the sugar or
sugar taste anyway. I always drank it for the thirst quenching effect and
Diet Coke still has that.

And you might want to search further concerning the syrup and the fake
sweeteners because they can go to the poison stage in high concentrations.
If I can get my brother to chime in he can explain better (he's a chemist).
I think he said that it was the "thing" that bonds the artificial sweetner
to the syrup base that actually goes bad but that they haven't been able to
solve that problem yet.
