    We will be there this weekend! I can't wait to see them. I remember the twinkling lights, but haven't viewed them before.

    Our first trip was in 1994 and I'm pretty sure I remember them from that trip.

    For those of you looking for this set of "twinkling sidewalks", they're near Innoventions West - the Seas/Land/Imagination side - between SpaceShip Earth and Innoventions, but they're kind of in a "hidden" spot - unless you walk through "that way", you'll never see these. They're in between some planters.

    The "fireflies" version is on the east side, between I believe Guest Relations and Innoventions East (Electric Umbrella side).

    This is one of my favorite things in Epcot. They are on all day and are our first stop on the way to soaring in the morning. Each time we pass them we have to stop and play. If you go to you tube and type in Epcot light up side walks you can see them.

    They have been there for as long as I can remember. They're always a stop on every visit to EPCOT.

    ODS found these for the first time on our last trip. I assumed they were new since we go at least once a year and had never noticed them before. I don't know how we have missed them all these years!

    Don't feel badly Mel. I missed the cool weather vanes atop the buildings in Fantasyland at Disneyland for over 9 years before I noticed them! And I practically lived in Fantasyland all those years since my kids were little...

    I felt like such an unobservant idiot when I saw them for the first time.

    LOL! Mel, remember about a year ago I realized that there is a sign where you get fastpass letting you know when the return time was. I had never noticed that before and felt like such an idiot when everyone was like "didn't you know....". I guess we all get caught up in our trips and families and miss a few things here and there!

    I always stop by after Illuminations to look at these lights. I listen to the music and look at the changing patterns as I drag my feet leaving the park. So beautiful.

    Yup, sounds about right. I have video from the late 90's of these exact lights. They're quite hypnotic. I haven't been by them in years however. Will need to swing by them in Oct.
