August 23, 2010 - Glow Fest Glowing Away, Alice Safer, and WigWigWag Goes the Trolley

[Nftysqrt]

Nftysqrt toured the parks today with friends and she managed to bring back a great selection of photos for us to enjoy! Prices are updated at the ticket booths. Ouch! Disney Clothier's, Ltd. will be back after a brief word from our sponsors. Autographed 55 Vinylmation figure and case. Geppetto's is still open. What, is Geppetto in cahoots with the witch from Hansel and Gretel? Still no visible progress on Rapunzel's tower. A voyage to a much safer Underland. Adventure going down down down... Ugh. Obstructed views all around! Leafy. Still Fastpasses this late in the afternoon. As we reported on Sunday, the Glow Fest extension has been modified. It's still ending on Labor Day, September 6, but it's only going to be presented within Sunshine Plaza as plans are undereway to remove decorations in Hollywood Pictures Backlot. Worry not, the HPB booze has been relocated to Sunshine Plaza for easy sloshification! New lines painted in the plaza, perhaps for the party van to follow? In Hollywood Pictures Backlot, one of the video projectors has already been removed. It projected live-time video-recorded imagery onto a giant screen near the bathrooms. A look down the boulevard. This will all be torn out soon as walls are expected to go up this week to connect the Tower section of red-car track with the main Hollywood Blvd section of red-car track. End of the line. Wig wag, ooh la la. Backstage. Mural saved. Lots of people enjoying a place to sit. Another gate. Walls were pushed out quite a bit, this time to the parade gates. Bugs land bleeds into the area rather nicely. Large roots and rockwork transition. A new small sign to let you know that you're leaving Hollywood. Thanks for all the photos, Nftysqrt!

I should stop by today. I am finally able to return to the park with my pass.

Expect it to be busy! Now with all AP's allowed in the park. I was surprised that WOC still had fastpasses around 6:00pm and when going back into DCA at 8:00pm the 11:15 show was still availiable.
