A Trip Down Memory Lane

While at Pop Century Resort, one of my favorite things to do is take a stroll down Memory Lane. No, I'm not sitting on a bench reminiscing about the past. Memory Lane is a walking path along the shores of Hourglass Lake that stretches from one side of the resort to the other...and its something you shouldn't miss.

As you walk along the path, you'll pass interesting signs. Each sign shows a year, along with interesting and notable things that happened, from 1950 through the 90s. So literally, if you walk the path and read each sign, you're walking down Memory Lane.

Along the way is the Generation Gap bridge, which will eventually connect Classic Years with Legendary Years. At this point, you may only cross halfway on the bridge, but from this point you can get some really good views (and photos) of Pop Century.

Also along the path, you'll find some very interesting items. My favorite is the giant Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads standing guard. Be sure to take your camera and walk the path during the day and night, as the views change dramatically with the lighting. There are several other interesting objects just off the path as well; such as the Twister Board in the 70s section. Pop Century has little gems at every turn, so its hard not to spot something interesting.

Next time you stay at the Pop Century, take time to stroll Memory Lane and the rest of the resort as well, you'll find many things that make you smile. Cya there!!!

Thanks for the tip! I was planning on staying there for the WDW Marathon in 2010.
