Contributing photographer Jason of disneygeek.com sends us these photos from his trip to the parks on Friday, September 1, 2017.

When I arrived at the Disneyland Resort my car said it was 100 degrees in the Mickey and Friends Parking structure.

The work on most of the floor of the structure has wrapped up. The new brickwork around the escalator areas.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge construction from the top floor of the parking structure.

The exterior wall facing Disneyland Drive has started to be installed on the far side and lower portion of the Battle Escape Building.

The Millennium Falcon building.

New parking rates and policies went into effect at Downtown Disney since my last visit.


This weekend the Disneyland Half Marathon events took place.

The finish line from this morning’s 5K run which featured the Incredibles.

The Fantasia Shop at the Disneyland Hotel features Halloween merchandise already.


Stopped by the RunDisney Expo at the Disneyland Hotel Convention Center.





Walked through Downtown Disney to reach the parks, a check of Splitsville Construction.

Walked through World of Disney for some A/C and to check out what was left of the Force Friday II merchandise.

The area in front of the center doors to World of Disney is Halloween central.



The Summer of Heroes sign at the entrance to Disney California Adventure is gone and the Halloween sign is starting to be installed.

At 3:15pm you could get Radiator Springs Racers FastPasses for 2 hours away. I cannot remember the last time I saw that. Usually if there are any they are for after dark by this time. Most days they are long gone though.

The poles on the right side of Route 66 in Cars Land are up and ready for Halloween decorations.

Lizzie has decorated for Haul-O-Ween already. The rest of the residents will be in the coming days. HalloweenTime kicks off Sept 15th at the Disneyland Resort.



Out on Paradise Pier, the work has wrapped up on the project to enclose a portion of the Standby queue for Toy Story Midway Mania.

Windows featuring the Toy Story Cast fill in the openings.

Inside the fans have been removed. The A/C was working well when I took a look in this afternoon.

Goofy’s Sky School is closed for renovation.

Hopefully it includes some repainting.

Gone Hollywood has become a Halloween merchandise location.

Next Stop Disneyland and a trip aboard the Disneyland Railroad. I choose to sit on the left side to see the view from there. Here we are making the left hand turn near the Big Thunder Trail.

Still some work to do on the berm. Or maybe the plan is to just give a glimpse into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. For now you see a construction fence.

A new Annual Passholder popcorn bucket/refill deal has started for HalloweenTime.

Sandy Claws is decorating the Haunted Mansion. It reopens Sept 15th.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge through the fence on the Big Thunder Trail.

Soundsational making its way through the park.

Space Mountain is closed through the 15th as Ghost Galaxy is installed. A little hard to see but up on the left the speakers are out already.

Radio 70s at Tomorrowland Terrace as the summer concert series draws to an end this week.


To close out this photo set a couple Fantasmic! pictures.


The Rivers of America did not ignite tonight.
