PHOTOS: New Walkway Connecting Disney's Polynesian Village to the Grand Floridian Resort Now Open

Up until a couple of weeks ago, Guests staying at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort were able to walk to Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa using a walkway bordering the Seven Seas Lagoon, which can be seen below:

Approximately a week ago, a portion of that walkway was closed to allow crews to begin working on the new Disney Vacation Club tower that will take over the area formerly housing the Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show; as a result, a temporary walkway was constructed. Let's take a look at the changes that were introduced:
