Getting to the Resort around 8:30 am
Decided to go to Disneyland first this time
New Disneyland Guide Map with a few Disney Princesses
Fantasy Faire depicted in the Guide Map
With the Princesses having their new home at the Fantasy Faire, the Small World promenade is now vacant of poles, ropes, and umbrellas
Over at the Starcade...
Fix-It-Felix arcade game among others from the 80's
Checking out Fantasy Faire
Those eyes look scary!
A small section for stroller parking
The tulip lights remind me of the lights at Alice in Wonderland
The built in queue for the Disney Princesses
Several decorative items adorn the Fairy tale Treasures. This clock reminds me of Pinocchio
A spinning wheel for Sleeping Beauty, a sewing kit from Cinderella. I am not sure what the open book is suppose to represent
Could the bow and arrow represent Mirida from Brave
A bucks of jewels from the Dwarfs mine and a hat resembling the kind that Peter Pan wears
The Fantasy Faire is almost hidden in the corner
Stroller parking for Fantasy Faire
The tarps have been removed from the Disneyland Railroad Main Street Station. The sign now states a population of 650,000,000
Disney California Adventure time
The Big Top Toys window display has been changed out ... for the worst
Look at the bad cutouts of the different Disney dolls and stuffed animals
Who the f@#k thought this was better than what was there before?
This is really terrible
Both sides of Mater's Junkyard Jamboree now in operation with the new resurface
Mater's with the new resurface
Back at Big Top Toys window display
Really?!? REALLY?!?
Who's decision was it to do this to the window display? In fact, who's decision was it to change the window displays along Buena Vista Street?
Whoever's decision this was, I don't know how they think this is better than what was designed for the windows.
Midway through my visit, I started to feel very nauseous and I started to not feel so good. So I was pretty much rushing through. So I didn't get to stay for a show at the Royal Theatre or do some of the stuff I normally do while I am there. So I may have to get that next week.
So this will conclude today's pictorial
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out
Until Next Time...
In the photo where you ask what the open book was about, the candle next to it is right from the opening of Pinocchio, but the book is of course very different.
ReplyDeleteYou're right! The candle is like the one from the opening of Pinocchio
DeleteThe open book is right at the beginning of The Sword in the Stone "Higitus Figitus" song. It's one of Merlin's magic books.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better, I enjoy your photo updates.
Oh! I was trying to figure out what animated feature would have a magic book like that. Thanks for the info. :)
DeleteHope you're feeling better now. :)
ReplyDeleteOnce again, thanks for the updates.... totally agree with you, that window with the cutouts is AWFUL. Who thought the cutouts- the blurry ones, too! were a good idea? Tacky. Cheap, tacky. Tasteless, awful.
I just wonder if these tacky window displays have had a possitive impact on sales
DeleteFantasy Faire facades are very nice. With that being said, I think all this infatuation with princesses at DL is nauseating. I really wish this meet and greet trend never started. I feel bad for all those parents that get suckered into waiting 60+ minutes so their 4 year can take a picture with a face character. Oh well, where there is $ to be made Disney will suck you dry....
ReplyDeleteI can understand. Because when you visit the Parks, it's like a majority of girls are dressed in princess attire.
DeleteIt's funny, cause people can wait, like you stated 60+ minutes to meet a face character, but heaven forbid if an attraction has a wait time of 20, 30, or 45 minutes ha ha.
But then again, there are those who do the multi-day visits where one day would be dedicated on characters and/or shows.
