Bret, I really like the pier pictures. Finally blue water again. I couldn't believe it when Funball mentioned this in one of her trip visit reports because I didn't see anyone else mention it.

Pictures from the funwheel are awesome!

k - This letter is right around the GRR mill at DCA. Which sign is it?
a - This letter belongs on the tender of what?
o - This should be easy to identified.
d - Studio Store.
e - Overhead Entrance sign to Paradise Pier.
n - Poster of an attraction at FL. This ride has the white rabbit and cat.
3 - Club33 Sign.

o is the World Of Color sign over security?
n Alice in wonderland sign in the tunnels into DL?

O is correct. I got it from the east side security check-point.

N is the AiW Poster sign on the right side of the tunnel.

Now to get back to the TR. I went back on MFW and used my extended lens to get closer pictures of DCA. Hope you enjoy it.

Former Maliboomer area under construction.

PP Victorian Style Restaurant

Former Muholland Madness and now tuning into Goofy Sky School. As you can see from the pic, that the color of the track is now white and the old track was orange.


More pics from the Maliboomer Construction Area

Back to the restaurant

After MFW went up another level, another view of the Maliboomer Construction Area again.

o - WoC sign over the eastern security entrance.
d - Studio Store

It took me a while to figure out which tender the A is from. Since so many tenders are red it made it extra hard. I'm sure it's from #5 the Ward Kimball.

 

[mvf-m11c]

Well I'll tell u the the signs for Kaoden39.

The K is from the sign on the right hand side of the walkway towards GRR.

The #9 is from the menu of Rancho del Zocalo

It took me a while to figure out which tender the A is from. Since so many tenders are red it made it extra hard. I'm sure it's from #5 the Ward Kimball.

You are correct Matt, as I have give the details of the letter A. It is the tender of Engine #5 Ward Kimball.

That was quicker than kaoden39. Maybe I made it too easy for skiingfast.

Now it is just K & I.

I'll make it easier for these two letters.

K - This is the firework show during the Holiday season and when I was at DL last month the poster sign was still up.

I - This letter belongs to the weekend event that is going on at DL during the first three months of this year. They have done 4 different events at DL and have two more on the way.
