February, Not Just Busy During President's Day

What another gorgeous day for a visit to the Disneyland Resort.
Walking through Downtown Disney early this morning, there were a lot of people heading to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure

Made it through the bag check with little wait.


Disney California Adventure has quite a demand to get inside.


But Disneyland has little.  Maybe Disneyland had more turnstiles open than Disney California Adventure.


Even though the lines looked long, I chose one that got me in within 5 minutes of queueing up


Once inside, Disney California Adventure had just opened for the day


Redwood Creek Challenge Trail still under refurbishment






Shiny number tiles.


These were actually taken earlier in the week on Monday, when the Park was open late because of President's Day.  And even though the Park had been open for 10+ hours, these number tiles sure did hold up with little to no dirt


It's Duffy (and the Neverland Pirates)


Even after about 15 - 20 minutes of walking around the Park, the line for Radiator Springs Racers FastPass still stretched toward Twilight Zone Tower of Terror


In fact, the Radiator Springs Racers FastPass queue stretched all the way to Tower of Terror's FastPass distribution area.  Good thing Tower of Terror didn't have a demand for their FastPass ha ha


The Lone Ranger came out 9 months ago and there is still the small marquee sign for it on the facade backdrop wall of HollywoodLand.  Why haven't they changed it out for a movie that people have actually seen? You know... like "Frozen"






These trees and poppies are really blooming






Thank you bees








Disneyland time


Work continues of the cone of Space Mountain




This ladder reminds me of that Mountain Climber game on The Price is Right


I see smoke!
A fire?
No, just welding ... I think








Oh god.  A group of tween girls just saw me.  I hope they don't ru.... eh, too late. Here they come, running, or at least trying to.  Kind of hard to run fast with a heavy loaded backpack








You know, if it wasn't for some work being done here, I wouldn't have known that this was a "trail"
I mean, I have seen this part of the mountain before of Big Thunder, but I don't think I ever noticed the trail that ran towards the base of the mountain


Splash Mountain with the scaffolding gone








Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was sending some test trains














One even got to ride it.  A WDI person I assume


Talking to her colleagues








Tulips! I love tulips
























Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage refurbishment












A Cast Member from the Disneyland Fire Department is up there with them








The Tiki Room exhibit has been taken out of the Disney Gallery portion inside The Opera House




The next exhibit will deal with Steam Punk
















This sort of looks like Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars Episode 1

With Aladdin back from its refurbishment, I decided to check it out






Let the show... begin!
















Smile for the birdie ha ha ha
... and no, he wasn't flipping us off.

Well that will conclude today's pictorial
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out
