  Heading to the parks via the tram
  The wires on the trees at the tram stop seemed to stand out more to me this week. Are they new, being moved, trees trimmed, or just caught my eye??
  

• Page Number: 2
  

  Aulani ads are present on all the ticketbooths the regular Annual Pass ones are gone. (This may have happened a while ago but it registered today)
  This week the skies were much more friendly for pictures.

  The wait times around 1:20pm
  Heading into Adventureland, the restrooms are being worked on. Hopefully updated, they seemed to be getting a bit run down.

  Looked like some painting.

  No changes on the Pirates/NOS exterior.
  This little walled off area near Haunted Mansion, above the drinking fountains so may be plumbing related or there is a light behind there too so electrical?
  

• Page Number: 8
  

  No visible changes in Critter Country
  The walls have shifted further into Frontierland with the portion of the walkway nearest the Golden Horseshoe all done.

  A look at the tree.
  Where the walls stop.
  

• Page Number: 11
  

  A better shot of what is now walled off.
  More walls up near where the DVC cart popped up several weeks ago. Wonder if they are going to make it more permanent?
  

• Page Number: 12
  

  Do not worry the cart is still there, just shifted up the trail a little.
  Stopped by the Halloween Round-up to see the latest pumpkin carvings.

  Jessie hanging out at the kids area.
  The walls at the far side of the transportation center where the Toy Story busses go look to be down.
  

• Page Number: 19
  

  Looking toward the entrance
  Looks like holes for the footers for the new structures.
  

• Page Number: 20
  

  The fronts of Greets, the Guest relations, etc.. are all removed now.
  

• Page Number: 21
  

  A second path looking into the park.

  The courtyard of Angels was blocked off. Looked like they were working on the steps but it was hard to tell really.
  Heading over to DCA now. The view from ground level.
  

• Page Number: 30
  

  The fences on the small path by the Grand CA stood out to me. Guessing they redid these when they decided to use it as the stroller drop off area.
  A new merchandise cart/display replaced the small cart at the end of the walkway as you head into Condor Flats.
  

• Page Number: 31
  

  Oops someone or something damaged the railing as you make the turn toward the Bay Area street.
  Some work on the gates to access the planters in the Mermaid stroller parking area.

  The loop has returned to Screamin (it is still closed though)

• Page Number: 33
  

  The new tops to the railings along the Pier are moving along. The white ones have been painted now.
  

• Page Number: 34
  

  Back to the rock work. As you can sort of make out there is some relief but for the most part it looks to be a wall. So guessing it will be a cliff.
  The paint progress is creeping across.
  The plastic is all down in the station area.

  Looks like the concrete work is just about done and ready for paint on the archway leading from the Wharf to Cars Land.
  

• Page Number: 41
  

  Speaking of painting the far side is still being painted.
  Backstage some walls are up and looks like pipe work.
  

• Page Number: 42
  

  Over to the Carthay work. The walls are going up and looking great.
  Not much visible progress on the facade here.
  

• Page Number: 43
  

  Interesting... wonder what the concrete barriers are for.. maybe they are going to be finishing up a section and that is to keep construction traffic away?
  The Courthouse is taking shape
  

• Page Number: 44
  

  Woody out in the Maliboomer park (I am sure it has a new name but to me that will stick for a while)
  Here you can see where the new mesh is going up.
  Thought this was a nice shot with the nearly complete mountains in the background.

• Page Number: 69
  

  What looks to be the same model from the D23 Expo is the centerpiece. ( I did not take many shots since I had a bunch from the Expo I will on the next visit though).
  A better shot.
  

• Page Number: 70
  

  The screening room has a new film that talks about the history and what is to come in Buena Vista Street.
  Thought the tag line at the top was interesting.
  

• Page Number: 71
  

  The last display area as you are exiting now features some Disneyland Hotel and Aulani artwork.

  Next stop the Disneyland Hotel
  The have started to work on the side of the building, notice the wood going on to match the other buildings.
  

• Page Number: 80
  

  Things are moving along here as the exterior is going on.
  Fencing going up and trees are going in around the E-Ticket pool area.
  

• Page Number: 81
  

  The spa has been poured

  More plants being brought in.
  The wall and new fence.

  Out front of the Adventure Tower.
  The side of the Fantasy Tower where the temp lift was attached. They are still cleaning that up.
  

• Page Number: 85
  

  The walkway on the lobby side of the Fantasia gift shop was about to be opened. I talked to one of the workers and they said within an hour or so it will be open.
  There seemed to be several couches I did not remember from last week.
  Took a peak in the restroom on the main floor, plain white walls too.
  

• Page Number: 86
  

  Moving the barriers out of the way. This walkway was to be opened too so you could go from the lobby to the convention side inside again.
  

• Page Number: 87
  

  The main entrance to the hotel. This was to be open too I believe.
  Looking at the area between the lobby and convention center you can see they are pouring concrete and getting it ready. It will be open in a week with the fountains following after that according to someone I spoke to.
  

• Page Number: 88
  

• Page Number: 89
  

  The lobby will start to go behind walls and be done in two phases. All interior work is slated to be done by Nov 7th to be ready for the holiday rush.
  This is the main entrance area. This was to be reopened later this evening.

  Leaving Disneyland and heading back to DCA for the rest of the evening.
  Could not really see anything different at night.
  The sign at the Disney Theater was all lit up, usually with ElecTRONica I do not get to see this.
  

• Page Number: 97
  

  Someone asked about the walls on the Backlot. You can still get to the Smoothies, so just the street is blocked.
  Believe this is a new sign on the exterior of the Cellar.
  

• Page Number: 98
  

  There were some work lights on at Cars Land so took some shots of the area with this different lighting.
  

• Page Number: 99
  

  Decided to go for another spin on the Fun Wheel to see if you could see anything. Not really.

  The crowd waiting for World of Color
  Not the best shot.. but the gift cart that was in this area between the Corn Dog Castle and Goofys was gone.
  

• Page Number: 102
  

  Waiting for World of Color
  The show started about 17 minutes late. We speculated it may have been a speaker issue since we heard no announcements about the delay, etc.. until they played the it will start in a few minutes right before it started.
  Also the pop up projection domes did not pop up from what I could tell from my angle.
  

• Page Number: 103
  

  Oops a random fountain stayed on for a while. (the blue stream)
  A cart on the trail when you head toward GRR set up for the exiting masses to buy that last minute gift on the way out.
