A Little "O.C." (Overcast and Cloudy) at the Disneyland Resort

I'm late!
I'm late!
For my important date at the Disneyland Resort.

I had my alarm set at 7:30 a.m. as well as 7:45 a.m. so I can get ready and start walking to the Disneyland Resort around 8:20.  But I slept right though them and didn't get up until 9:15!

As I am about to pick out which shirt I want to wear, I look outside and see that it's a little "OC". ... Overcast and Cloudy.  Ughh!

I finally get ready and pretty much speed walk to the Disneyland Resort. I walk though Downtown Disney and come to the World of Disney store




New window displays have been added. These were taken a few night ago.
This one depicts the view of Fantasyland and Tomorrowland from the perspective view of the Matterhorn mountain climber








Another window depicts a futuristic city of tomorrow with Space Mountain






Reference to the Tomorrowland '55-'67 where Guests could get their pictures taken with Disneyland version of astronauts




These dark blue rockets (that are on a rotating disc) are getting launched


I am not sure if these light blue rockets, which are slow moving, are suppose to be representing the PeopleMover or if they are just moving slow to act as though they are getting ready for launch


Between then and now, I saw this window.  It took me a few moments to figure out what I was looking at.  Then it hit me...
An elevator shaft from the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror

Because I was pretty much an hour late, I just started over at Disneyland because I wanted to still get inside while the crowds were still relatively calm




Some filming taking place at the entrance of Disneyland










Just keep going!
Don't make me wave to the lady with the glove hand mommy!
Don't make me wave to her










Mardi Gras


















Splash Mountain under refurbishment


With no big draw to Critter Country, it was slow and quiet in the back, especially around the "hundred acre woods"


Sailing Ship Columbia refurbishment






Are they watering the river? ha ha ha


Whoa! activity taking place on top of Space Mountain












Even with the scaffolding and these guys on top of the mountain, the attraction was still in operation


























This Native American child must miss his fishing companion.
Although the dog was not present, the whimpering sound of the dog could still be heard


Sleeping kitty








OK Mr. Goat.  What tricks do you have up your sleeve for us when your attraction finally reopens? ha ha ha


In the coming weeks, the Skyway Chalet is scheduled to be demolished




I'm gonna miss this more than Billy Hill and the Hillbillies since I have more of a connection with this ride than with the Hillbillies


I wonder if the stairs will be removed as well or if they are gonna stay.  If they stay, it would be a bit sad as they would be a constant reminder of the abandoned chalet

"it's a small world" being transformed back to the normal version


He has fall protection on




Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage refurbishment




If we cover up these barricades in white, maybe it will blend in more with Space Mountain.
Yeah, if the Mountain were white! ha ha
But the mountain isn't fully white as dirt is visible










These are some of the show figures wrapped up








When I got off, these Star Wars Storm Troopers were heading up the Autopia Exit


Looks like they are heading downstairs to the corporate lounge


Space Mountain really needs a cleaning


Yellow means caution and Red means DANGER!




The line in Innoventions to meet Thor




Another view of Space Mountain scaffolding from Main Street


Flowers. Pretty flowers


The snow has melted away from Sleeping Beauty Castle


And the small thinner turret has retained the topper


And now it's time for Disney California Adventure
Although I did walk around most of the Park, not much was going on






















Aladdin under refurbishment




Two weeks ago, a directional sign for Radiator Springs Racers FastPass appeared next to Carthay Circle Restaurant


And a new smaller sign has been placed in front of the Radiator Springs Racers FastPass marquee




Citizens around the fountain






As Officer Blue and the other female citizen wave to the girl goodbye, it's also my cue to head out for the day
