WDWNT Videographer and Photographer Matt Paul just visited the Walt Disney World resort this past very busy weekend and has a number of newsworthy photos to share of his trip with us:
The pavement at the very busy Transportation and Ticket Center could use some work
“Celebrate Today!” banners greet you as you exit towards the Magic Kingdom
Another look at the very cool decorations on Main Street U.S.A.
The hats are individually themed to the members of the Fab 5
The “Move it, Shake It, Celebrate It!” Street Party is now on the tip board
Notice something different in the background?
The all-blue banners have been replaced with these festive ones
Will work on the Liberty Square Bridge ever stop? Just hope it doesn’t close again…
Some new pavement in Frontierland
While it is closed, guests are allowed to walk-through Pecos Bill’s
Matt has provided us with a number of photos from the “Move It, Shake It, Celebrate It!” Street Party
That is one large lollipop….
A temporary meet and greet for Pinocchio has been set up on Main Street
The area is nicely decorated
Available March 10 on Blu-ray and DVD
A banner now hangs above the “Celebrate Today!” merchandise in the Emporium
The mystery structures behind the Stitch’s Supersonic Celebration construction walls continue to grow
You can see the frame where the screen will sit on the main show stage
A huge crane has moved into the area as well
The walls around these restrooms have shrunk again
The Galaxy Palace Theater is gone, leaving a hole that makes the back of Main Street quite visible from Tomorrowland
A new tree has been planted where the signage once stood
Disney’s Celebration Central in the rose garden being used by a large group
The Hall of Presidents exterior being refurbished
This sign now appears on the walls
A small walkway left open to the Heritage House
A look at the tarps from far away
Apparently, they have dropped the rest of the name and just call it “El Pirata” now…
For some reason, some cast members from Big Thunder Mountain at Tokyo Disneyland were at the Magic Kingdom handing out these
Is it possible we have something better than Tokyo Disneyland?
Interesting…
Some pavement that has seen better days
The Diamond Horseshoe open for the holiday weekend
New window displays on Main Street
They didn’t over-do it on these “Celebrate Today!” displays, they look pretty nice
Over at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, work continues on the Fantasia Market opening in April
The Bay Lake Tower already appearing on the resort map
Concept art of the Top of the World lounge
A look at the real thing, Bay Lake Tower
Many rooms appear to be furnished
The bridge between the two buildings isn’t quite ready yet
The entrance still has quite a bit of scaffolding
Work continues on the Top of the World lounge as well
“Please keep balloons inside and continue to hold onto the handrails until the monorail stops completely, and the doors open”
A look out at Epcot and some ugly hotels in the distance
That would probably be a good way to get construction photos…
The top of the slide at the Bay Cove Pool
Ladies and gentleman, I now give you the backside of Bay Lake Tower
Another look at the Bay Cove Pool under construction. Thanks for the photos Matt!
