The DCA Makeover Begins....

[yeti]

On an update I read on Miceage, it was mentioned that the Sun Wheel will be closing on September 11 to make way for "Mickey's Fun Wheel". In other words, the sun face on the ferris wheel will be replaced with a giant mickey head/face, and more victorian boardwalk theming.

There's also a tiny bit of info on the Mark VII.

I'm going to miss the Mickey head on California Screamin! I guess I better take all the photos I can of it now. It was cool to go upside down in Mickey's head!

I'll miss it too.

But the TSMM sign is kinda blocking it now. But still...

I loved DCA the way it is. But like Nicole said before, it could use some TLC.

So what are they replacing Calfornia Screamin' with, or are they just taking down the Mickey head? This is unfortunate.

^ They're taking away the Mickey ears. The rollercoaster is staying (though it might get a makeover in the near future).

They're really taking down the Mickey Ears from the Coaster? Why? I heard about the Sun Wheel becoming Mickey's Fun Wheel, but why take the Mickey ears off the coaster? It was nice to take pictures of.

Elevation(this one seems to be the most spot on for everything so far since the TSMM building is exactly the same.

"But why?" is what I'm asking.
