Closed Rides, Tarps, and Scaffolding Doesn't Make For A Pretty Park at the Disneyland Resort


Disneyland Resort, Main Entry Plaza, Esplanade
Watch your step as you walk through the Main Entry Plaza at the Disneyland Resort, as the compass section is still wet.  Not sure if it's because of the rain that happened the day before or if it was from power washing during the late hours

Disneyland Resort, Disney California Adventure
The Parks haven't officially opened yet, so I am gonna go into Disney California Adventure first to kill some time

Normally there would be a trolley here, but not at this moment in time

This is probably for more fall protection and they will hide it behind a ring, sort of what they did with the Castle wall above the dark rides in Fantasyland
