An overview from the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure	9.30.16

A pan across the site starting at the left/north end and the ever changing mound of dirt.	9.30.16

Trailers are now present on site near the mound. In the distance the far retaining wall is taking shape.	9.30.16

Not a lot of change near the wall closer to the Fantasyland Theater. They are working on the opposite side it appeared.	9.30.16

Continuing to the right you can now clearly see the two entrance tunnels. Fantasyland in the middle then off to the right the one toward Frontierland (both will come out on the Big Thunder tril but that is the direction they point)	9.30.16

Looks like they are setting up supports to build the roof on the backstage marina area for Fantasmic	9.30.16

Forms for a wall stretch from near the marina to the right around the river toward Critter Country now.	9.30.16

Across the river on the Island you can see rocks starting to take shape.	9.30.16

A wider picture of the site. In the foreground closest the structure they are wrapping up utility work.	9.30.16

In the center of the site the pit/basement for one of the show buildings is continuing to grow.	9.30.16

	9.30.16

Dirt being moved around, maybe grading for the show building that will go over the pit.	9.30.16

Back to the Fantasyland entrance.	9.30.16

Over toward Critter Country some large steel beams have been brought in. Wonder if those are for the train trestle.	9.30.16

The orange fence to the left of the beams is where the train will come out from Critter Country.	9.30.16

A new pathway will be added between the Rivers of America and the Hungry Bear leading to Star Wars Land.	9.30.16

A lot of work still going on backstage behind Critter Country.	9.30.16

Jumping into the park, the view from Critter Country to give an idea what the walls look like from the other side.	9.30.16
