  The Frontierland Shootin Exposition is closed for renovation.
  Interesting the Columbia has been moved from the harbor to the far side of the island (the east side, the Big Thunder side).
  

• Page Number: 29
  

  To do this means they had to move the Mark Twain forward past the harbor toward Splash Mountain then back the Columbia around and then back the Mark Twain up, since the back half of the river does not exist yet. Wonder what they are up to.
  The dock.
  The Mark Twain is at the Frontierland dock still.

  Toontown from the Miss Daisy

  Buzz..
  A look at the Pin Quest map and pins (they are in the shadow I was not paying attention to my picture).
  

• Page Number: 54
  

  Speaking of not paying attention. Notice anything about this section of Pins that is labeled Pixar? Besides the fact that none of them are Pixar. To be fair several rows below this were Pixar. But not the pins near the sign.
