Refurbishments, Repainting, and Removals at the Disneyland Resort

Getting a 20 minute late start today as I had to wait for a friend to arrive at the Parks.
Yikes!

Starting off a different path today.
This time, I decide to go towards Hollywood Land

Nothing really going on here.

Earlier in the week, someone posted a photo on twitter of a child on the wooden boxes, and another one on top of the platform.

So I just took these, just in case Disney 1) removes the boxes 2) removes the guns

Speaking of guns...

  1. Thanks for sharing your pictures with everyone. They look great. I'm glad you had a chance to get some nice construction photos too, I've always enjoyed checking them out. Awesome work as always:)

  2. Thanks for the photos. What's pictured here:

    The only thing I remember looking anything like this was Fort Wilderness, but it can't be that.

    1. I had a reason to take those photos. But when it came up to writing the blog, I somehow totally skipped over those.

      But, I wrote an explanation underneath the picture to let you and the readers know the reason I took those photos

      Thanks for catching that for me. :)

    2. But where is it? I still can't place it. Thanks!

    3. If it's not Fort Wilderness, it must be the fort-like structure at the entrance to Frontierland from the Hub.

      The clue for me is the flags displayed at the top of the wall in the previous photo.

      Take a look at this post from My Year with The Mouse, about the entrance to Frontierland: https://myyearwiththemouse.com/2011/03/03/the-northish-side-of-frontierland/

      And this image is of the inside of the fort wall with the flags, with a pretzel cart in front of it: https://myyearwiththemouse.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/frontierlandsouth-3.jpg

      The image is taken from this post: https://myyearwiththemouse.com/2011/08/01/south-side-frontierland/

    4. Aha, that must be it! Thanks! I'll have to look at the area more carefully next time I'm in the park.

    5. Sorry for the late response. But like it's already been mentioned, it's the backside to the entrance of Frontierland. If you were standing at the Frontierland flag pole, the first picture would be as though you are looking to your right (where the ATM would be) and the second picture would be as if you were looking to the left.

  3. I've never seen the skit from The Tonight Show, but I enjoyed watching the clip, especially in the context of the photos you took of the Star Wars/Jedi show.

    I feel bad for the performer, though. I would imagine that Disney doesn't give the performer much choice in whether or not to wear tight pants. Imagine if the male Jedi performers were forced to wear tight pants (or men in general typically wore pants like that).

    1. The first time I watched the Jedi Training Trials of the Temple, I overheard several people around me whisper about the performers tight pants.

      Skip ahead to about a week ago, I go to YouTube's website and under the "Watch It Again", I saw the Jimmy Fallon Tonight Show Tight Pants. After watching it a couple times, my mind started to wander and one of the things that came to mind was the Jedi Training performer.
