Where's the Dirt Today?

With the rains coming this weekend, today was a bit cool with scattered clouds.

While on the Toy Story bus heading to the Disneyland Resort, there were some people on there who were talking to each other. One woman and her daughter hadn't been to Disneyland in 20 years. The people they were talking to were surprised by that and mentioned that there is now another park, Disney California Adventure. But while she was mentioning the new park, she was giving it a "thumbs down" and that they shouldn't visit the park.  Of course, they didn't mention that Disney California Adventure is going through a transformation phase.

Finally get to the Resort and head straight into Disney California Adventure


The dirt is now on the left side this time


Heading to Paradise Pier


Work continues on the Little Mermaid attraction






What looks like wooden box planters are now behind the walls


Warning: You may get wet!

As my friend and I get to Mickey's Fun Wheel, we find that it is closed due to technical difficulties with Guests still inside the gondolas. We decided to wait it out for a bit once we saw the mechanics arrive.  They got the wheel moving again at a slow pace to get the passengers off and once that was completed, they started to climb the side ladders.  When we saw that, we knew it was going to be a while, so we decided to check back later on this.

Also, last week Mickey's Fun Wheel had technical difficulties after the park opened. And it was about 15-20 minutes before it got started. And earlier this week, California Screamin' had difficulties too!

Seashells are now appearing along the top archway










Some CarsLand shots

Over inside the Animation Academy,


we find that the animated walls will be coming back in March



From the entrance of Hollywood Pictures Backlot, I could see Mickey's Fun Wheel rotating, so we decide to head back over there.

Goofy's Sky School's queue is getting a red paint job




Are these just Sirens playing instraments? Or are they suppose to represent Ariel's sisters?  By the looks of it, it seems that Attina is playing flute while another sister, Allana playing another instrament

















Man, these Green Army Men are always all over the Park.


An empty area next to California Adventure's exit

The Kalamazoo hand cart is finally back






While walking past these small walls, we could actually hear workers smoothing concrete with trowels inside






Star Tours with scaffolding, minus the tarps








This lonely piece of tarp has stars on it


More scaffolding over near the Star Trader entrance










Inside the Starcade while the Star Trader is being refurbished regenerated












Continuing the square concrete tiles in Tomorrowland





Walking over to Critter Country








Standing roughly in front of the Haunted Mansion, one can see the Star Tours scaffolding


Heading out for the day

That will do it for today's pictorial
Thanks for stopping by, I truly appreciate it
