As any Magic Kingdom park goer knows if you want that special souvenir, a stop at the Main Street Emporium is a must on your trip to the park.

One of our suggestions is to walk through the shops just as the park opens and it will provide you with a hassle free shopping experience.

Take a look at some of these photos of an empty Main Street Emporium at park opening.

Photos: New Aloha Isle Location

You love Dole Whips.  We know.  One of the issues was the location of Aloha Isle in the Magic Kingdom.  Because of the popularity of Dole Whips the location of Aloha Isle seemed to always have long lines and many time would create congestion around the Adventureland entrance.

Disney has decided to switch Aloha Isle and Sunshine Tree Terrace locations and from the looks of things it appears to be a great move.
