• May 24, 2012 - Carthay Circle Theater unveiled, Cars Land Filming and More!

    Today at Disney California Adventure, the newest icon of the park, Carthay Circle Theater finally has it's walls removed. Beautiful details all around the new restaurant. Also in Cars Land, filming was taking place on Route 66. We also got lucky with Radiator Springs Racer testing. Mad T Party is in finishing touches mode with a Soft Opening schedule for tomorrow night.

    Over at Disneyland it's nothing but cute. Baby ducks, hummingbird, and some musical chairs with the Alice in Wonderland characters!
