    Made my way to Adventureland.
    The Adventure Trading Company opened today. Here are some props in the Tiki Room queue.
  • Page Number: 18
    The main base for the Adventure Trading Company is the Outfitters.
    A sign out front letting you know about it.
  • Page Number: 19
    Inside a sign that sums up the experience. You become an Adventurer. You choose an adventure and pay $5 for a publication that explains it (or you can opt for a beverage that costs $7.50). You then set off on our journey and complete the task. You return and receive a Juju to mark the event and commemorate the adventure.
    A display board opposite the sign with more details.
  • Page Number: 20
    Several Cast Members were in the store to explain the scenarios and issue you an Adventure Name. Here he is explaining about the Piranahaha Juju. You purchase this guide then go to the Jungle Cruise to learn about being a skipper. Once completed you get the book stamped then return to get the Juju.
    Next up the Tiki Bird Juju. Here you are a casting agent looking for more birds to join the show. You walk around and need to take pictures of birds to earn the Juju.
    Here is a board showing the Jujus you can earn and the trait for each. You can also trade Jujus with cast members or others.
  • Page Number: 21
    Here is a closer look at three of the Jujus
  • Page Number: 22
    There are three Jujus that are earned by purchasing drinks. Such as venonade at Bengals BBQ earns you this one.

    My adventure name today.. as assigned by the cast member since I could not come up with one..
  • Page Number: 28
    Note they do not put the Adventure Trading Co drinks on the menu. So you have to know to ask for it.
  • Page Number: 29
    I did not go on a Juju quest.. instead made my way to the Castle for the College Band then ventured to Frontierland.
    Today land was cheap.. only 75 bits.
    If you did not have a Western name in mind you could pick one from a stack.. my unlucky draw for the day.

    Passing through Tomorrowland again.. Autopia had reopened.

    I wanted to go for a trip on the Monorail but the line/wait and my time/schedule/patience did not line up. So here are two pics through the fence.

    Passing Frontierland.

    As I arrived on Main Street for Magical they announced it may be cancelled due to winds. I looked up and the flags were blowing so I decided to head toward the car.
    As I arrived at the Mickey and Friends garage Magical started as scheduled. So watched from there before heading home.
