Because of 2012 being a Leap Year, Disneyland stayed open for 24 hours from 6am on February 29 to 6am March 1.
I was planning on attending "One More Disney Day" from 3am-6am. But during the day and early evening there were reports that both Parks were busy in preparation of Disneyland staying open in the middle of the night. Because Twitter was buzzing how crowded Disneyland was all throughout the night, I decided to stay home with the hopes that when I go to the Parks in the morning, it will be slow.
I thought the backside of the mountain range of Cars Land facing Harbor Blvd would have gotten the same kind of treatment of rock work finish like that facing Paradise Pier. But I guess they don't need to impress the outside world. ha ha ;)
It's just a little after 10am and it doesn't look to bad entering Disney California Adventure

The scaffolding and walls have been removed. Overall it looks more pleasing to look at. Removing the big Jack-in-the-box was a smart move

ReplyDeleteMatterhorn lookes so much better with the new pait job, even with just less than half uncovered. The snow looks a lot more realistic.
