Hello Everyone and welcome to your daily wand news update. I'll keep it short to 4 pictures.

"E" from the monorail:

Entrance side close up:

Also from the monorail:

And as I was taking this picture, the CM from Gateway Gifts said that I couldn't because "It was a picture of construction." (Which dosen't matter because it is all clearly visible from the monorail where you can take all the pictures you want:

I kindly said 'Ok, Thank You' and proceeded to check progress on SSE Unload. Nothing has changed, just some vehicles removed. Nothing else I can think about other than Test Track was down for a little while this afternoon which is pretty common.

And Since there its Friday the 13th, A Random Shot of Mickey Pumpkins:

Looks good so far. I kinda thought that it would be coming down a lot faster than it is...5 days and 5 letters removed...Oh well, Hopefully it will be restored to its original splendor by August..

I'm pretty sure they are scaffolding parts...being assembled along the construction wall in the background of that picture directly below SSE.

That's interesting. Suppose it's for the wand or the ball?
