Less Than A Month Away

Can you believe it? In less than a month away, Disney California Adventure will have its relaunch and Disneyland will unveil the Matterhorn with new bobsleds. This should be an exciting summer season...as long as you don't mind crowds. ha ha



Getting inside Disney California Adventure, looking at Buena Vista Street


Buena Vista Street's flag pole has been installed




Why did I take a picture of one of the outdoor vending carts at California Adventure? Take a look at the graphic design..


..and the item & price sign.


Now notice a new graphic design for the carts for Paradise Pier


As well as a themed item & price sign to go along with it.


Checking out Cars Land from Mickey's Fun Wheel


Finally! I get to see a race car running the track




"Meetings first Tuesday of every month at 7:30pm"


Side by side






Some of the poles on the right have missing lights


Soon there will be day time water shows in the Pier


Tarps are down from Ghirardelli


Some signage and a few tires inside Tow Mater's Junkyard Jamboree queue.


The poles in Cars Land have received wires


Looking down Route 66




I think the painted decals on the street state "Route 66"


Flo's V8 Cafe Cast Member costume for the females




Flo's V8 Cafe male Cast Member costume (back side)


The lonely tractor that sits in the "petting zoo". I wonder how long it will take for them (if at all) to take it out once kids injure themselves on it








More stuff inside Mater's Junkyard Jamboree








Umbrellas in their plastic sleeve on the second level of the Carthay




Stained glass window for Clarabelle's Ice Cream


Some more detail work for Fiddler, Fifer, and Practical Cafe










A painted sign for Carthay Circle Theatre




Whoa! That is one tall man ;)


Fiddler, Fifer, and Practical Cafe sign painted on the side




Over near Elias & Company, another sign is being painted. This time for The Buena Vista Bugle


"Trumpeting the news daily"








Over in Hollywood Land, the Mad T Party set up is still underway




Some Chinese lanterns with cool pattern hang above


A Drink Me stand






The Mad T Party stage with a guitar like tea pot




It's a big table with a key dangling


And inside, it's like an upside down room






















Wonder what this design is? It can be found on one of the purple lanterns






The design on the purple lantern is what is being placed at the house of cards




"a bug's land" is also getting spruced up


The clovers are getting some new green in them


Old and new












I can see another painted sign, this time for Elias & Company




And there it is!

Disneyland








The menus for Tomorrowland Terrace are now flat screen t.v. monitors


The picture on the right changes, showing some of the menu items



Over in Fantasyland...


Brave's new meet-and-greet will soon open for Guests to meet Merida




























Some new Haunted Mansion themed stroller signs




Some work in New Orleans Square




Matterhorn bobsleds were being tested






With Cars Land opening, the Monorail's got a new wrap




Buena Vista Street as seen from the Monorail

















That will conclude today's pictorial.

  2. If I'm not mistaken, I think the light poles with missing lights in front of Pier Ice Cream Co. are totally new light poles. I walked by them yesterday and thought to myself "I don't think these were here before..."

  4. I hope they fix those electric poles in Cars land. The wires are just lazily draped over the crossbars and not even strung properly. Looks tacky.

    1. Judging from the photos, they are obviously not done. At the very least there will be more wires coming, and most likely adjustments.
