    The backside
    While waiting in the guest services line Monorail Red went by.. Notice the window in the middle of that car is partially removed. I read these were test windows for airflow.
    There is a new Floral Mickey.. also the Mad Hatter, Alice, and the Disneyland Band were in the area

    For anyone interested, here is what the Birthday fun card looks like
    It was my birthday so I received a button too.
    Some painting on Main Street
  • Page Number: 10
    The line for City Hall (my guess is people wanted buttons for various reasons)
    Main Street is cut up in several spots as it prepares for the repaving project
  • Page Number: 11
    All the trees looked rather thin along the street and I noticed wood holding them up.. are these new? Or am I just not that observant on past trips...
    The East side of the hub is behind walls for repaving.

    A look over the walls
    No walls or tarps up on the side, so you can see the work going on
  • Page Number: 20
    Surprised they need to work on the belts, considering the attractions was only open a couple months.
  • Page Number: 21
    Now into Toontown
    This would be a much nicer shot without the trash cans front and center.
    Cartoon Spin was not open yet, or was already down.

    There is a new drink promotion.. you can now buy a large and there is a decent discount for Annual Passholders.
  • Page Number: 32
    The new cups, napkins, and corn dog wrappers (I like the red better than the old blue)
    Is it just me or are the corn dogs smaller?

    The cove area is now behind walls (but the ODV cart is still accessible).
    Nothing apepars to be going on behind the walls yet.

  • Page Number: 52
    No signs of progress on the area that was carved out of the Dept. 56 store a couple of months ago.
    Why is everything 50% off here, is this store going out of business too? Or just a regular clearance sale?
  • Page Number: 53
