I don't know if this counts as an expansion, but from what I recall, the middle pathway between Scotland & Germany is closed off during CT. I don't like that.
I think it would be awesome if there were some kinda special themed decorations down there lining the bridge walkway with maybe some carolers or musicians on both ends in the larger areas. I can think of many reasons why this won't happen, but it is sad for me to see space sitting unused. Plus, I actually do like hanging out down there, regardless of the "heart attack hill" & stairs.

Actually CK, from personal experience, the river always seems to be drained somewhat and the bridge gets disconnected during the winter. It typically just sits there and floats like an island.

So actually, this is why I said "I can think of many reasons why this won't happen."

I would swear the path between Scotland and Germany was open for the first CT. I have pics somewhere. Anyway, it was pretty on the bridge with the lights. I was bummed that they didn't decorate it again.
I know all y'all have issues with the Pompeii area, but I think those lights were some of the prettiest in the park last year.

I'll try to find them tonight, but I have an ugly feeling those pictures may be on a different computer.
I also like polar pathway. I also love the lights reflected in the water. The boats covered in lights is the coolest thing about illuminights.
I know it was open the first year- I took pictures of Big Bad Wolf's removal from down there.
I remember the bridge being open as well. The "cattle chute area" as I call it had small Christmas Trees down the sides in between the inner wall and outer railing. Thought it was a nice touch myself.

I remember one particularly cold day in October they had to close AC due to it getting stuck below 48-ish degrees.

I absolutely love this picture! Was this during CT open hours? Can't tell if this is late or early. Gorgeous!
So, I found my pictures of the bridge between Scotland and Germany. I appologize for the quality: it was my old camera. There were not a lot of decorations, but it was kind of serene, if that makes any sense. It was also extremely cold, as I recall, and I was dressed for dinner.
The first year, each hamlet had a color theme, which is why all of the lights are blue.
Anyway, here they are.

Thanks!
I thought the area was pretty and sparkly. Unfortunately, that old camera really didn't do it justice. The blue lights on the water were really nice. I really wish they still decorated there, but that first year you could tell they were experimenting with things. I was looking through my pictures and realized how much CT has changed since then.
