Around 9:45am, we are walking through the Resort Transportation Plaza along Harbor Blvd. and it was really peaceful and quiet. Looking at the number of people walking through, we thought that it might be slow at the Disneyland Resort
Heading inside Disney California Adventure
Going through the temporary entrance
Half way there
We made it!

Disney California Adventure's Temporary Entrance
Did those plants along the arches grow?
Or are those plants new? They go all the way down along the seating area of the Paradise Pier restaurants. Is it to prevent Guests from watching the parade?

Oh my gosh, look at those pot holes O.o!
That looks kind of scary to drive over
Some road damage at the closest loading and unloading spot for the Toy Story buses, which is why they don't use that spot.
That will conclude today's pictorial
Thanks for your patience and stopping by
Until Next Time...
I really like the changes they did to the Emporium. Also, the construction looks as if it is coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
The more I see of Cars Land, the less I care about it. As the "detail" emerges its looking more and more like a trailer park, white trash land than something magical.
ReplyDeleteI am just relieved that they are going to finish the backside of the new mountain range with more than srinkwrap.
ReplyDelete....and your new graphics look great! Thanx again for the updates. I look forward to Friday mornings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking me from a really bad day to my happy place. I know I can hold on for a couple of weeks to be there in person. Your photos touch people in ways you'll probably never fully understand. Thanks!
