[Isaac]

Had some free time yesterday afternoon so I visited the park.


The 2001 DLR logo is slowing being replaced by this new one:

Okay enough DCA!


In Disneyland, there are several signs & cut outs at the entrance to Pirates:

Over in ToonTown, Goofy's Bounce House has been renamed Goofy's Playhouse. The outside queue and house are now a toddler play area.

The sad thing for me was watching two 5yr old boys run into the house, stop in stunned silence, and then ask out loud "Hey, where's the bounce house ?"

Awesome report. I love the pumpkin with the hands coming out, so cute.

[Gemini Cricket]

Great pics! I hadn't realized that Goofy's was done already.
Awesome shots.
:)

[BarTopDancer]

Great photos! Thanks Zapp! And good job on Buzz!

The play area looks cute. I wonder how long until it's in dire need of maintenance.

[Snowflake]

Fabulous photos! Love the Pirates stuff.

CONGRATS on First Place on Buzz!

The ToonTown pics are cute.

So much for Buzz, being our make-out ride, but I'm glad you made out nicely.

Ah well, there's always space mountain. ("Dad, look, those boys are making out on there!")

[mousepod]

Thanks Zapp! Great photos!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Funny. My first thought was..."how can I steal that dog?"Oh, that dog's not part of the poster. Intersting...

[Not Afraid]

Mine!

[innerSpaceman]

How come we didn't see any of this coveted stuff when we were traipsing around Pirate's backstage areas last week? It would have been so much easier to swipe (er, commandeer).

[MickeyLumbo]

Not to worry, I'll throw you a backhanded compliment, you made me look like chopped liver. Of course, it was my first (and so far only) time on Buzz. ;)
I was so not even close!
