Current photo of Castle while being refurbished

I'll ask some CMs while I'm here and see if I can get the scoop on timing.

I'm at the park now and there is now a wall that I'm guessing is 7ft tall on the backside of the castle that's blocking starting at the sleeping beauty walkthrough all the way to the Snow White walkway. This wasn't there on Wedneaday. The walkway between princess fantasy fair and fantasyland is open.

We arrive on the 3rd, first park day the 4th. I told my husband it will probably get covered the 3rd. Realistically, when it get covered, I have a feeling the tarp will arrive on a Monday. So maybe tomorrow or next Monday.

Yeah, my guess is it will go up this week. Oh well, nothing we can do about it at this point but sit and wait and hope lol

Many many refurbishments are scheduled to reopen on the 15th, so it's when some people are speculating that the 60th anniversary celebrations will start.

Oh Geezo. We are going May 16 for a week, and while I suppose the 60th celebration would be fun, I guess the crowds will be astronomical. I would rather they wait til June or July so the crowds are not as bad in May.

I can't change my dates, but I am anxious for any info they are going to release soon!!

There is some scaffolding up around the castle today that wasn't there yesterday. The moat is nearly but not completely drained. I asked several CMs yesterday and they all said that they'd heard that a tarp would go up but they didn't know when or if it would be painted.

Just a guess but I'm guessing it will go up this week sometime based on the scaffolding. I'll report back tomorrow.

What does It's a Small World look like now? Does it still have a printed tarp on it?

I was info'd by 2 people at Disney that the castle should be uncovered March 3 (as long as there is no delays)

Right. After. We leave.

Sorry for not posting earlier..We had a longer than anticipated drive yesterday due to dense fog and arrived at the DLH around 10:30am but didn't sleep until nearly midnight..LOL.

Anyway so this was taken on 1/25/14. There are brown gates blocking the drawbridge area/castle walkthrough but there are multiple ways to get a great castle shot from the sides. I have not been in Disneyland yet today (1/26) , but will update as needed. See pic below :

IASW did not have a printer tarp yesterday - just plain white and extensive scaffolding. It will be closed starting today 1/26 ; I will update if anything changes. I am staying until 1/31.

I'd say it's a bit less intrusive from the other side of the castle, but the scaffolding is still very apparent.

Will see what it looks like tomorrow!

I like it. The concealment of the castle is coming along quite nicely.

Ouch. I don't have a trip planned and it still hurts to see that. I'm dying to see how it turns out, but feel bad for those visiting before it gets unveiled again.
