  • Page Number: 1
    The Christmas tree is set up backstage and ready to be moved to Main Street this week.
    Downtown Disney has Christmas banners up.
    And the ads at the ticket booths have been changed out too.
  • Page Number: 2
    The West side tile mural (right as you are looking at the entrance) has been removed and they are now working on the East side. Also the letters have their holiday makeover.
    It looks rather open within the tile work.
  • Page Number: 3
    The palm trees are being removed too and temporary concrete poured.
    High School Musical now uses the ElecTRONica stage which has been moved out to allow for more removal of the Sunshine Plaza
  • Page Number: 4
    Walls encircle the entire center area now.
  • Page Number: 5
    I waited around about 15 minutes and no show so no shots, but it is the same show from what I have just restaged a bit to work on this stage.
    The Golden Gate is decorated for one last time.
  • Page Number: 6
    Some temporary lights for ElecTRONica are on the rooftops
    More Christmas decorations
  • Page Number: 7
    The Sun is completely gone
    Just the supports left.
  • Page Number: 8
    The reflectors that never quite worked right are still up, but I would assume will be gone soon.
    The park was dead this afternoon. No line at all for the Cars characters.
    Soarin was just barely out the door.
  • Page Number: 9
    The Little Mermaid building is moving along.
    The detail is slowly emerging.
    The front seems to be moving extremely slowly now in terms of visible progress.
  • Page Number: 10
    Some drywall has been installed and shaped inside.
    Over at Cars Land the steel just keeps growing. Last week they had the topping out ceremony (not the flag)

    While standing in line for Toy Story noticed these solar panels for the TS3 photo op place.. and cannot remember if I ever mentioned/noticed them before.
  • Page Number: 13
    Toy Story reopened several weeks ago and this is my first ride since then. They have added blinking safety lights under the load areas
    And gates along the exit area to direct guests to the exit path.
    I am a bit out of practice.. but still respectable for me, 231...
  • Page Number: 14
    The new lights (off)
    The new lights (on)
  • Page Number: 15
    Is this a new gate near the exit stairs of Toy Story (I know I can look in the archive, but it just seemed new to me).
    A rare sight, a short wait.
    Time for a spin on the Fun Wheel
