Chuck Canzoneri’s 7/6/09 Photo Report
Chuck Canzoneri returns with a new Disneyland Resort photo report:
Lots of unexpected barriers up. Behind these tarps, some fresh asphalt had been laid in
Loading to the left, unloading the right. Hopefully this’ll make things work much more smoothly
Looks like some freshly painted railings around the Hub
The railings surrounding the Matterhorn were so freshly painted at rope drop…
…the painters were still there
Snow White’s Scary Adventures has re-opened
No major changes. Some better articulation of the trees in the forest scene, but the whole attraction was freshly polished
The Jolly Trolley has been gone from Toontown for quite a while now
The view from the very top of Splash Mountain
For some, this is the last thing they see before closing their eyes
The bluebird was missing all spring, but it’s finally back, looking as clean and new as ever
The Disneyland Band was performing with Minnie, Mickey, Pluto, and Donald at 2pm
Mickey and Minnie danced with the band
Chuck took a look at the new Disney Studio 365
Things were worse than he feared
After meeting with a Talent Agent (cashier) and signing your contract (credit card receipt) your teen is sent into hair, make up, and wardrobe
After their wardrobe fitting, they take part in a photo session and get a memento of their celebrity experience
These are actual outfits worn by Miley Cyrus on Hannah Montana
Chuck ate lunch at the Uva Cafe to prepare for the upcoming Downtown Disney Dining Discussion on the Disneyland News Today Podcast. This is the Meatball Slider with mozzarella cheese. It has far less flavor than the picture suggests
This is the chicken caeser salad, featuring the palest lettuce ever seen. Again, the house dressing is completely lacking in flavor. Chuck said it tasted like milk and water mixed with some store bought grated parmesan cheese. And check out the tiny croutons
His main dish was the best thing he ate there, the turkey sandwich dressed up with arugula, bacon, guacamole and deli mustard. This is to cover the lack of actual turkey. Chuck said the bread was the best part of this sandwich. And guacamole and mustard do not mix
Over to DCA, where these walls will be the park’s most common feature for a while
Dinosaur Jack is gone, but Corn Dog Castle still remains
Some photos of the new Disney prizes at the Games of the Boardwalk
With the new prizes, the crowds were definitely heavier
Thanks for the report Chuck!
