  As the tram passed by the backstage area of Disneyland through the fence you can see the sections of the Christmas tree are out and ready to be tested then assembled.
  Baymax greets you on a poster as you pull into the Downtown Disney tram stop.
  This World of Disney entrance is still Halloween merchandise but notice the garland hanging over the doorway. Christmas is arriving.

  This door has the same thing.. Halloween merchandise and Christmas garland.
  The windows outside are decorated too (the glare was terrible though this time of day)

  The Small World facade in the window received its holiday lights.
  And Christmas merchandise is on display.

  Stepping inside if you look up its ChristmasTime.
  Some random shirts as I walked through.
  

• Page Number: 5
  

• Page Number: 6
  

  A large portion of the World of Disney now features Christmas merchandise.
  A look around since it was not crowded (seems the near 90 degree temps outside and the fact that it is a week before Halloween meant there was no rush for the Christmas merchandise).
  A Grumpy shirt I do not remember from years past.

  Wonder if this light pole will ever return.. I should look it up but it seems like it has to be a year now.
  The work in the center of the Esplanade has wrapped up since my last trip.
  The compass is still there and features all its wear but around it now is plain concrete so the sections that were most damaged are gone.

  Looking toward DCA.
  Oswald greeted me on Buena Vista Street
  Kind of sad... I overheard a guest explaining that Oswald is a young Mickey Mouse to their kids. They got the timing right that he pre-dates Mickey but he sure does not look like a mouse to me.

  Buena Vista Street this afternoon
  Some DCA waits around 2:15pm. Notice the Racers at only 30 minutes.

  The never ending project out on the Pier continues.
  I stopped by to see how it was looking.
  The scaffolding is now out in the water so things are moving..
  

• Page Number: 23
  

  The new planks are in.
  Looks like they are painting and wrapping this up.. it has been a very long project.
  Oops.. someone set the arrow wrong.. the podium is to the left not right.. well almost straight ahead more or less.
  

• Page Number: 24
  

  An Olaf hat.. so he can sit on your head and enjoy the park.
  Seems they need some benches where the Duffy meet and greet used to be. There were a handful of groups/families in the shade eating ice cream with no where to sit and they looked uncomfortable.
  Ghirardelli was still passing out mini caramels. No free pumpkin spice this year. (OK with me I like the caramels and not the pumpkin spice).

  Inside they cast members were having a meeting before the gates opened (it was just after 3:30 when I entered, I believe the party gates open at 4:00).
  A sign of the Happy Haunts Tour gathering.
  Last visit I did not get any good pictures of the newly finished planter near City Hall.

  So this week a walk around it.
  

• Page Number: 48
  

  Mary and Bert strolling through Town Square.
  The curb work was wrapped up last visit but again it was dark so I did not get pictures. Here are some. In preparation for the new walkway they have taken out much of the curb from the corner back to the Mad Hatter and made it a ramp.
  

• Page Number: 49
  

  A closer look
  The blue seems new to me.. it really stood out. Guessing they repainted it (or cleaned it). No other visible changes from this angle of the new walkway.
  Turning around the transition of the new curb.
  

• Page Number: 50
  

  Looks like the new facade behind the scaffolding may have the same blue.
  The annual snowfall has occurred as Sleeping Beauty Castle prepares for the holidays.
  

• Page Number: 51
  

  The scaffolding is down but walls still up along Main Street as the current phase of refurbishments wrap up.
  

• Page Number: 52
  

  Down the block Refreshment Corner is still behind scaffolding.
  

• Page Number: 53
  

  The Corn Dog Wagon has been re-aligned to give a wider walkway, assuming this is in preparation for the new overflow walkways.
  It is really pushed up against and blocking the stairs now.
  No visible progress on the new walkway.
  

• Page Number: 54
  

  Some day time shots of the new First Aid and Wish Lounge facades. Last visit it was dark when I stopped by.

  Too bad no new facade to hide this backstage view.

  Disneyland wait times around 3:45pm
  When holidays collide. Pumpkins around the hub and snow on the castle.
  Lights are in the trees around the hub now.
  

• Page Number: 59
  

  Random Minnie picture with a snowy Sleeping Beauty Castle in the background.
  The rest of the castle ice/lighting is not installed. It looks nice and clean still.

  Then a sign to guide those that checked in out front of the store

  Outside the lights are still being installed on the facade.

  The sub lagoon this evening.
  

• Page Number: 99
  

  The signs for the Monsters U burger. Since the menu boards are digital now why are these special items not highlighted on them? Seems like a missed opportunity.
  Shoe string fries at the Tomorrowland Terrace too.. is this going to be the new norm?
  Space Mountain and Big Hero 6 as the sun has almost set for the evening. No ghost galaxy lighting. Is that reserved just for the party now?

  A couple video clips along the trail and then one of the Rivers of America.
  The Rivers of America were being covered in fog for the party.
  

• Page Number: 107
  

  The fog effect looked much better in person than my pictures... it was 7:00pm and they CMs started asking for wrist bands and asking guests to head toward the exits. So I could not really play around to try and get a good picture.
