Super Special Halloween Edition

Hey, Everybody! I hope you all have a safe holiday. Watch out for them little bastard kids when you go out driving tonight, and stay away from the alchyhols, unless you are drinking from the comfort of your own couch.

Now lets get down to business. Last Wednesday, I took another stroll down Main Street. Now this is the REAL Main Street. Not that fake topic that is always brought up by those stupid politicians. Main  Street USA at the Happiest place on Earth. Every year the park is decorated for this special holiday. In addition to the Nightmare Before Christmast taking over the Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain was setup for the festivities. If you ever can get down here for it over the next few years, I suggest you do. Well, here are this weeks pictures.

















Next I went and checked out the improvements made on this last refurbishment of the Matterhorn Bobsleds. This was the only good that came of it:


And the last place I went to check out was over at California Adventure. The first picture were bubbles from what seemed to be a pixar themed parade. If you go see this parade, make sure you sit FAR away because the floats shoot water at people. The rest are from my long wait in the Cars Land: Radiator Springs Racers.








Well, what do you all think? Drop me a line in the comments section below. Much Appreciated. Hopefully I will stop being lazy and write something up this week. Have a fun holiday!

California Adventure

This is Part 3 of my 3 part series from the Land of Disney.  To view parts one and two click here and here.

Now "most" people have been to Disneyland, but many still haven't seen Disney's California Adventure. I had the pleasure of working at both parks about 10 years ago and got to see it how it was originally made. Over the last five years or so the park has seen some major expansions starting with the A Bug's Land, a west coast version of Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and finalizing most recently with Cars Land.

The park started off as a part of the day experience. Not really enough to grab a family for the day. But now, its a full fledged park and a pretty darn good one now too. And I liked it great back then too. Whenever you come out to visit the mouse house, I recommend visit across the entryway.

The following photos are from my adventures.

Plant Life at the Land of Disney

A couple weeks ago, I took a trip to Disneyland. Mostly everybody I know has been there at some point or another, but for others, I want to bring the Magic Kingdom to them until I they have a chance to go.

I used to work there about 10 years ago and new about the lengths the horticulture department go to make sure the visual plant experience is up to par with the structures and immaculate attraction design. They would go in EVERY night just to pull out the worse looking plants and replace them with fresh looking ones. Pretty amazing lengths to go through just to let every single adult and child experience and have the time of their life. The experience seemed to be the most important part which places outside of Las Vegas seem to forget these days.















Parts Two and Three are shots of Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure, with some shots of the all new Cars Land. I'll post the next one on Sunday probably. Until then, you can check out my older pictures here.
