gameplayer951 Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 (edited) My mom, dad, and I went to Disneyland on Sunday (as a "last fun thing to do before the first day of school" thing), and took LOTS of pictures. And I know it's been 4 days since I went, but I've been busy. Anyway, onto the pictures... Parked in the Downtown Disney parking lot (parked for free for the entire day! I have a smart dad ;D) Nice security... Disneyland Hotel construction... through the trees / bush thingies! Rode the monorail to and from the park. Nice and air conditioned! Now for some Nemo photos from the Monorail station... Ooooh... secret backstage entrance! Our monorail again. Matterhorn... through the trees! New Alice... meh... I'll just have to get used to it... but for now... -_-' Random swan bushes. Sooo tiny! Star Tours now has a construction wall up instead of glass windows (I think?) and a black curtain behind them. Sign photo fail. Blurry! More photos tomorrow. Edited August 28, 2010 by gameplayer951 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameplayer951 Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 More pictures. My high score for Buzz Lightyear. Fuzzy! Now over to DCA. Construction on Little Mermaid is going fast. Cars Land's outer architecture is going up in AMAZING speed!! Duckies! More Cars Land. Time for the Fun Wheel... OMG!! FUN WHEEL CAR UNDERCARRIAGE!!! O.O Guy in a speedboat going around to each of the WoC projectors and cleaning the lenses. Pixar Play Parade was ending as we got on the ride. I spy Lotso... WHY LOTSO?! HE'S EVIL!! >_< That white circular steel structure is going to be either Ramone's or Flo's, I believe. Ride building for Radiator Springs Racers. California Screamin's tunnels are getting new paint jobs. I didn't even think about getting pics of the new paint job, so I got one offline from mintcrocodile.blogspot.com. I kinda like it! More pictures to come soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameplayer951 Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 WASSAT?! OMG! RSR TRACK!! :D The other side of Cars Land's architecture looks like it's done (meaning that the steel frame is already covered up). Someone needs to get on top one of the hotels facing them and take some pics! Last World of Color stage picture. No, I didn't see it that night. :'( Still workin'. Maliboomer... Apparently the ride had broken down, because people were just standing around doing nothing. And people were getting out of line. The longest I've ever seen the wait for Maliboomer. R.I.P. (I never even got to ride it!) :/ Park index love. Line wasn't long, but I didn't stop to ride it. I'm not really a fan of Golden Zephyr. But will it stay, or go? I don't think it really fits in. Maybe a retheme will do the trick. Pretty. Close-up on the Little Mermaid construction. WANNA SEE INSIDE OF THE NEW RIDE?! (yes, we've fast forwarded 9 months into the future!!!) Okay, not really. It's actually a model of the ride inside of Blue Sky Cellar! I'll start at the beginning of the ride. This is Ariel's Grotto. "Under the Sea." No flash = better? Ursula's lair. "Kiss the Girl." "Love's First Kiss." What, don't see Ursula? There she is! "Happily Ever After" / Finale. Ride vehicles / shells / doombuggies. Handicapped ride chariot. (fits one wheelchair and one additional rider.) NOTED! More photos tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameplayer951 Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Just realized that Windows Live Photo Gallery needed to update - and it's better than the regular Windows Photo Gallery, which I used for the earlier photos... oh well. So these pictures will be of greater quality! Little Mermaid ride layout. Random "where this ride's going to be" thing. Some of the architecture is going to be based on old-time amusement parks. Info on the Scuttle animatronic. My bad, animation sheets on the animatronic. Info on the Ariel animation sheets of the animatronic. (HA! GOT IT RIGHT THIS TIME!) Facial features on the Ariel animatronic. Concept art is put high up on the back wall. OPENING 2011!!!! (I'm actually hyped up about this ride, even though it's Little Mermaid! ) Red car trolley model. Concept art for the eastern side of Paradise Pier. Wall of Goofy's Sky School concept art! (I LOVE the type of cartoon that it's inspired by!) Wall of Red Car Trolley concept art. Concept art for new restaurants. (Lotsa concept art!) Wall / glass case of memories! (Aww...) Forgot to take up-close pics of the bottom two shelves, so I cropped the original photo. (And yes, I have a damn-good-high-quality-picture-takin' camera!) I need those two pins!! Toy Story Midway Mania enhancements. Blurry! But still kinda visible! (I hope...) More pictures soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameplayer951 Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 And finally, the last of my photos. The clay figure of Ariel (as noted). CARS LAND!!!! (The one thing that I'm most hyped up about!!!) Luigi's Flying Tires queue. OMG!! SNEAK PEEK!!! Sexy logo! Concept art / layout for Mater's Junkyard Jamboree. This ride's going to be very heavy on scenery... Looks fun! And to conclude my Blue Sky Cellar pics, I have a video of the video that's being showcased! (Watch in HD! And sorry to spam, but like and subscribe if you have the time, please! ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAz9Y4_7Fno I have never seen Dot right there in front of my face when I've walked into Bug's Land. Ever. *facepalm* The new, better detailed entrance / link between Hollywood Pictures Backlot and Bug's Land. Looks great! New sign for the index! Another view... FUN FACT: I won't go on Tower of Terror. I absolutely HATE the sensation of freefalling without anything holding me in properly (that's why I'm good on coasters ). I've had too many nightmares of me falling into a black hole of nothingness, too... BUT, I can say that I've been on it before - when I was about 7 or 8. I was stupid back then; I wasn't afraid of anything. And since then, I've come to my senses about lots of things... Anyway, enough about me. Tower of Terror... THROUGH THE TREES! Red Car Trolley's track progress. Yep. Glow Fest preshow (?). I didn't have time to go into the main even later on, so no pics of that until next time! I have been to Glow Fest before, though. Very pumped up street party, with random drunk people starting random dance-offs with other random drunk people... definitely a place for the people from Jersey Shore. And this fall I heard that they were going to change the theme to TRON!!! :D:D My family and I talked to a cast member for a good 10 - 20 minutes, and he said that the mural in the front was going to be taken down. BUT, the Golden Gate bridge will be staying because of / it is (I can't remember which he said) the foundation of the monorail tracks (or something like that), and it'd be way too much of a hassle to take down. Time to go the car with some park index love... Blurry shot of Nemo station. Waterfall! Nemo subs / station. I leave you with a pretty shot of Matterhorn. Hope you liked the photo TR! Expect another one soon! (I love having an AP to Disneyland!! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
