So, I happened to be perusing the various Disney World entries on Wikipedia (let's face it, I have a very boring job) and I noticed one of the "boxes" at the bottom of the screen lists topics in the category "Lakes at Walt Disney World."
Just for kicks, I decided to try and figure out what/where they are, because most don't link to anything.
Bay Lake, Seven Seas Lagoon, and World Showcase Lagoon are all obvious. Lake Buena Vista is what the city is named after but I never knew where it was (by the Buena Vista Golf Course.)
The others are a little tougher. Hourglass Lake I know is at Pop Century. Lake Coronado, I would imagine, is at Coronado Springs. Lake Magnolia seems to imply that it might be near the Magnolia golf course. Melody Lake makes me think of All Star Music but I don't think there is water by any of the All Stars, at least not water that was named in the last ten years. Caymen Lake, I'm guessing, is the one in Caribbean Beach Resort, because none of the other choices make sense. Celebration Bay, I'm guessing, is near Celebration. Gateway Lake? Could that be the entire body of water between Epcot and the Studios? I thought that had a different name. Is there another "lake" by the International Gateway or could it be something different altogether? Finally, Black Lake is Lake Buena Vista's original name, as the LBV article stated.
As for Buck Lake, Orange Lake, Lake Reams, Discovery Lake, Lake Sharp, Celebration Bay, and Gateway Lake...anybody got any ideas?
