Well, after planning to go to the MK for the whole day and then being held up at home, I finally got there about 6ish. Not a whole lot to report but there were a few little things. I apologize for the bluriness of some of the pics here...

First off, upon entering the MK, I noticed that the Main Street Vehicles were running. I had never seen them running them this late in the evening, and on a Saturday too.

Off to the hub, nothing new to report

On to Adventureland, where the walls are down near the SFRT. Nothing looked all to different.

Pirates is still pretty much the same as it has been, roped off and quiet.

Now to Fronteirland

I went and watched the CBJ and the audio seemed out of synch. At sometimes it was too loud while at others it was to quiet. And for the finale, the instrumental track didnt even play. It was kinda funny to see them dancing around on stage with no music at all, kindy creepy too :lookaroun

The sign for the show seems to have changed from this

to this

So then off through Liberty Square and Fantasyland. Nothing new to report there.

More coming up in just a minute.

Hitting Tomorrowland last, I did COP. The theater I sat in was almost full and alot of people really enjoyed the show.

Then, I headed over to the remnants of Timekeeper. Nothing going on over there, although there is light coming out from under the doors.

Looking at SGE, I noticed something, didnt this used to light up at night, back when it was AE?

So, as I was leaving through the Tomorrowland Terrace (which was not open btw) I noticed this by the back side of TK...

Its the sign Merf was talking about.

And thats about it, crowds were light last night. The longest wait I saw was 60 mins. for Buzz. It was cold but nothing too bad. It was actually a nice little change from how hot its been. And of course, gotta end this with a pic of the castle...

Thanks a lot for the update. Good to see that crowds and temperatures were moderate. I wonder what's up with the Country Bears sign change? I prefer the old one.

Also something I noticed

I also got back from the world last night 3/25 and I noticed something. On all the rides, they have announcements saying for parents to watch their children. I know this sounds horrible but this was long overdue cause I have seen kids running all over the place, changing seats and stuff. I guess enough guests and cast members said enough is enough and upper management listened.

Yeah, I noticed that too when I rode the TTA.

Tis a shame they have to remind certain parents to be responsible for their own children.

Great update, by the way. I live for these photo updates, since we only get down there every few years. So much happens in our absences that once I DO get back, I feel as if I never left because the "new" things aren't really surprises. It's great to know what's going on before I even get there. It also impresses the people I go with because they're fumbling with the maps and saying, "Uh, I think I read somewhere that they added some new ride over...." and I'll chime in with ride specs, tidbits of info, and the exact location.

Those announcements have been around for a little while. I was surprised when I heard them on basically *everything*. The Pirates one was great: "Hang on tight and keep the little ones close..."

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear the children announcement (I've often thought a set of reins should be included with the ticket... :lookaroun :lol: ).

Also, I do think the tower at AE lit up at night. If I remember right, the rings and top orb were both lit.

I'm thinking the sign may have disappeared to be repainted and the current sign is temporary in its absense, atleast lets hope. The sign at the TK saying keep out just makes me think that something really cool is happening they they don't want leaking, again lets hope!

There's a similar sandwich board sign inside of the Timekeeper entrance should anyone push those trashcans out of the way of the doors.

Not a fan of the CBJ sign. How long has it been like that? It looks familar from late December. Maybe not though.

Thanks for the pictures.

The current CBJ sign is temporary; it was used throughout December as part of the Christmas show sign.

Although the TK sandwich board sign is new, a similar CM announcement was made nearly a month ago, except that Disney specified that entering the building without proper credentials would result in disciplinary action "including termination." (That's a quote.)

Something's going on in there... :lookaroun

Thanks for the pictures and the update.

Just by looking at the pictures, I could tell that it was somewhat cold. Reminds me of being there last November... pretty chilly.

Good to see that the crowds are moderate though, and not too crazy.

Yeah it did. Kinda symbolic eh? :lookaroun :lol: Couldn't resist

Seriously, thanks for the pics. Hopefully the CBJ sign will be back in it's full glory soon.
