This weekend was the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend.
AllEars.Net’s Laura Gilbreath participated in the Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend races and has postings on them HERE. I walked through the runDisney Expo and the Disneyland Hotel to start my day, but will skip those pictures since Laura has them covered. Here is one quick picture of the finish line for the 5K as I made my way to the Disneyland Hotel. The races had a Hawaiian/Lilo & Stitch/Aulani theme this year.

After roaming around the Expo I walked through Downtown Disney and made my way to Disneyland. Still working on the entrance to Disneyland.

No visible change on Main Street.

Inside the Disney Showcase has received the rest of its Halloween decorations and merchandise.





The music store exit and window are blocked off while the exterior work is underway. So it is a dead end if you try to pass through the stores.

The guest relations podium in Tomorrowland. Each one now fits in better with the area it is in.

Ghost Galaxy equipment is installed.

The sub lagoon has been refilled. The attraction is scheduled to reopen September 27.



The subs themselves appear untouched..

I walked through Toontown. Mickey fountain and his house

The new guest relations podium in Fantasyland.

The music of Nashville concluded its run last Saturday. The Jamboree is closed this week. It will reopen for the Halloween Carnival in a few weeks.

The Legends of Frontierland has been extended into the fall. Disney did not release a date though.

Today was the last day for the Adventure Trading Company. To celebrate they were hosting various events throughout the day.

Aladdin’s Oasis had stories from guests strung throughout.


This group was participating in a decodathon.

This was a story telling circle

The queue ropes for Indy look bright and new.

Haunted Mansion 45th anniversary shirts are still available.

The Haunted Mansion is closed until September 12th as they install the holiday overlay.

I walked through the Emporium on my way out of the park. Spotted this pack of 12 posters attraction poster printers for $19.95.

As I was walking up Buena Vista Street Goofy strolled by.

The scaffolding was being removed around the Grand Californian.

It was all stacked near the walkway.

Waiting to cross the parade route as the opening of the Pixar Play Parade passed by.

They were testing the World of Color fountains in preparation for tonight’s show.

The ongoing renovation work.

Screamin’ has a new on ride photo option. You can now purchase a digital photo for 99 cents by text.


Stopped by Radiator Springs Curios, a look at some of the merchandise.



Returned to Disneyland. Here is the Droid of the Day in the Star Trader.

A Hard Day’s Night a Tribute to the Beatles at the Tomorrowland Terrace this evening.

Sleeping Beauty Castle

Daisy meeting guests in Town Square

Dapper Dan inspired pumpkins


A Hard Day’s Night second set.

Returned to Main Street to wait for Magical. Spotted only a couple pairs of Glow with the Show Ears, one right in front of me.

No signs of Tinkerbell or Dumbo this evening.
Thought this was a fun shot — too bad the head on the left drifted into my frame.

Hope you enjoyed this highlight tour of the Disneyland Resort. For additional photos and details from this trip you can check out the full Disneyland Update I posted on my site, http://disneygeek.com Also be sure to follow me on twitter @disneygeekcom for pictures from the parks.
