Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Disney World

Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is a Victorian themed hotel and spa. According to The Walt Disney Company, it is considered Disney's flagship resort. Its exterior is modeled after the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego, California, with red gabled roofs and white walls.
When I was there, there was a band of musicians on the 2nd floor balcony (near the bottom of the further chandelier) playing classical music.
