Look at the dates under the pictures. 7th is from January 23rd and 9 and 10 are from December 5th. Most of the above the loading station metal work for the hill is in place now, just needs rebar and plaster.

Ok I didn't notice the dates hop around, but photo 2 has two dates March 17th and 19th, that's most recent

Just in new Fantasyland? From what I hear you'd want to get to Enchanted Tales with Belle first, as the line builds VERY fast and waits are long for most of the day. After that, head to the Little Mermaid attraction and the meet-and-greet if you want, tackle Storybook Circus (meet-and-greets, Barnstormer and Dumbo), and swing back around to explore Belle's village (Gaston's Tavern, Bonjour Gifts) and stake a spot outside Be Our Guest, where people start lining up crazily early for a counter-service lunch.

HELP!!!!! New here and trying to figure out all the abbreviations everyone is using. Is there a place already on here that I can use as reference??

I am trying to follow along and it's getting hard because I am reading abbreviations I have no clue what they are: E-ticket, D-ticket, TOD, NFL, SWSA, BTMR just to name a few. I have only been to Walt Disney World once and I am very interested in the New Fantasy Land and love reading this forum so far but all the abbreviations is making it hard to understand what you all are talking about.

Thanks
DJ

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
Welcome DJ.
Many of the less common acronyms are explained here: http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/a-site-initial-dictionary.861855/page-2#post-5382872
D-tickets and E-tickets refers to how attractions were rated years ago when you bought a book of tickets, rather than an all-in admission price. What was originally an E-ticket may not necessarily be considered one today. (I'm looking at you, It's a Small World). Now an E-ticket would be a very popular ride, are a very technologically advanced ride.
I don't know what TOD is off the top of my head; but NFL is New Fantasyland (also referred to as FLE, Fantasyland Expansion); SWSA is/was Snow White's Scary Adventures; BTMR is Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
You will get the hang of most of the acronyms. Eventually.

I will let someone else define e ticket and D ticket. its a long explanation. but it has to do with the way they used to sell tickets into the parks based on attrations. if you have a D ticket. you could enter the park and ride Haunted mansion etc

as far as the Abrevies

NFL = NEW FANTASYLAND
SWSA = SNOW WHITES SCARY ADVENTURE
BTMR = BIG THUNDER MOUNTAIN RAILROD
TOD - NO Idea

I hope Ben, the kid who rode the old Snow White ride 3000 times, likes the new one.
I read his father's book, and it was amazing reading about how much that one simple ride meant to that boy and his family.

According to the guide, ToD stands for Tapestry of Dreams, which was a former parade at EPCOT.
I'm guessing the person meant TDO, which is Team Disney Orlando if I'm not mistaken.

The latest thing I noticed is the yellow tarps for the rock work are starting to creep around from the Mermaid side to the Mine Train side and down along the tracks at ground level

-thanks for the update :)
