How is all this affecting the parades?

There are no parades right now - or fireworks.

No parades for a while, but the fireworks will be going on 1/17 - I checked the schedule since we'll be there that day!

hehe, Mickey holding balloons! Fun!

Saw a video clip elsewhere that showed Tink lighting it up at night. The light bulbs throughout Mickey's face are REALLY bright.

Thanks for sharing the picture.

Yes, once I figured out what they were I thought the balloons were so cute.

The Tinkerbell one is the one they just took down - I took this a couple weeks ago...

Yes, the lights were VERY bright! But it was a really cool effect!

Thanks so much for posting that link! It's nice to see some photos of what it's looking like!

I'm sad that the entrance floral displace is also walled off

They always wall it off when they are updating/changing it.

It's down now! There's a new celebration Mickey floral out.

YAY, I figured it wouldn't be too long before it was all fixed up.

We were there yesterday and it is not walled off anymore. The flowers need to bloom a little more to fill in the balloons - it took me a minute to figure out what they were supposed to be!

That's a GREAT photo! Thank You for sharing it with us. I had a feeling it would have something to do with balloons! LOL

I'm sad...I never got to see the Mickey flowers with tinkerbell and the lights. Boo.

Aha! So the RDCM Fireworks show will be returning! That's good to hear .
Maybe they'll update again when the 55th Anniversary makes its advent next year then!

Those balloons look so cute... And the hat! I love how they always change the floral arrangement when a new theme comes along... I'd have to say though, the one with Tinker Bell lighting up the face with her wand was my favorite arrangement thus far. I'll miss it!

I was there this weekend and they had a bit walled off at one end of Main street where you come in and a bigger section at the other end we were trying to figure out what was going on, when you say they are repaving, are they just doing small sections at a time? and are they taking out the trolly tracks as well? also anyone know if they are going to add more accessibilty cuts in the sidewalks the distance between where you can access them is very great at the moment. and if they are repaving this would be the time to fix that problem. Anyone know if they are going to?

 

[pixiewings71]

They are repaving and fixing the trolley tracks. That's all I am aware of at this time, I have no info on cutting into the sidewalks at all.

 

[McCall]

I just called to suggest they add this now since it is clearly the best time for them to do it if they have not thought of it before. They are more than a bit lax on updating for disabled guests in all things Disney. Hopefully the powers that be will consider doing this at the same time.

some photos here

Wow! Thank you for the great pictures. We are going at the end of March. I hope a lot of the walls are gone by then.

The above pics are Darkbeer's. He is very active on another message board site and takes 100s of great photos. I am never sure about posting a link cross-boards without permission from the poster, but if you search on Google, you will find his collection. It's quite impressive and has MANY more pics of the work being done at DL.

He goes to the parks often so everything he posts is updated. Always knows what's going on in terms of refurbs and such...

They were not listed on the DL calendar when I checked this morning. They were the other day, but not now, so I don't know if the fireworks will happen on 1/31 or not.

Well, they are listed there now.

HOORAY!!!! I don't know if I just missed it or if it disappeared for a moment! I was so sad! THANKS!

Yay! We're here now and the walls are totally not too bad... A little odd to see some of them, but defintely not as bad as I was imagining from the photos

Good to hear that the front floral display is not walled up anymore!

We are going with family that has never been there, and I so wanted it to look so nice for them!

Doesn't everyone remember their first look at the Train Station, and looking down to the castle, at the beautiful main street.....sigh.....

I just wanted it to be magical and beautiful
