Disneyland Update: Party's Over, Here Comes Halloween, DL Hotel signs, and more!

Tonight after work I'm going to post a more detailed photo update of Disneyland.

Here's a few highlights for now:

Most of the 50th anniversary bling has been removed from the park

Halloween decor on Main Street USA

New signs on the Disneyland Hotels

Tomorrowland Terrace has officially returned & Club Buzz is dead

News headlines:

Rockin Space Mountain & Rockin California Screamin will run January thru April only, all day and all night.

Castle refurb to remove the crowns will only take about a day or two. No repainting.

"Rockn California Screamin"? What the hell is that? They replaced the rock music with different rock music? Huh?

my interpretation from the presentation was that the new "Rockin'" score(s) is written to be "choreographed" with the (two)attraction's dips, turns, new effects and finale. (though I thought the current score(s) acomplished this already.)

and welcome back Terrace! My "Dream" would include the return of Tahitian Terrace as well. doubtful, but it sure would please me. the Jedi Training Academy is not of interest to me, but, i think will be very popular with Guests and is a great balance to Princess Fanatasy Faire.

it would be groovy to see the Sunshine Balloon rise again in the evenings.

Pretty much.

The CM Ref. Guide claims that both Space Mountain AND California Screamin will get additional special effects and new rock n roll soundtracks. I don't why they're doing it to California Screamin. I just know they are.

Woot! A Repeat, Second Last Perfect Fireworks sometime in the (near?) future!

Yeah, there was a meeting where Rockin' California Screamin' was announced about six weeks ago and all the managers present were pretty confused (as well as completely surprised). Details weren't given on how Screamin' would be changed for it and everybody is having a hard time imagining anything.

Maybe they'll figure out a way to put some thrills in there?

I'm glad they got the memo about de-blinging Disneyland in time for my arrival.

As somebody who loved the "blinging" (I looove collecting crowns!) I'm heartbroken to see it go.

I must admit seeing Tomorrowland Terrace almost brought tears to my eyes. I'm somebody who longs for "Yesterland".

Really? I never would have guessed by your siggy!

What are those tall towers flanking the entrance, the speakers dressed up?

Interesting how they can't come up with anything new, so they put things back the way they were. Now if they would only put the rocket rods back on the people mover track, bring the people mover back (or something else in it's place), and rip out the bottle-necking rock formations at the TL entrance, I think we'd be much better off! People might want to go into TL if it didn't look so crowded from Main St.

Great pictures, Zapp! Thanks!
