View: Two Big Disneyland Updates! Monday in the Parks and Dateline Disneyland. Christmas, Halloween, Changes, Updates.

The Disneyland Resort in California is about to undergo a series of transformations.  First to Halloween time and then to Christmas decorations.  This is your last chance to see the park in its Year of a Million Dreams clothes before the long over-extended promotion is finally put out of its misery.  The Tinkerbell and Mickey Mouse floral display at the front of the park will soon give way to Halloween Mickey. Over at Disney's California Adventure, Golden Dreams has had its last public performance.   The area surrounding the Golden Dreams Theater will eventually become a new dark ride based upon the Little Mermaid. And we end this week's Dateline Disneyland update with photos from the new bowling lounge at Anaheim's Garden Walk, pictures from the windows on Main Street, and a few artistic photos of the Disneyland fireworks.

If there is one thing that I love, it is photos of an abandoned amusement park. This week, the MiceChat Roundup Crew is featuring OFTEric's [1] pictures of the abandoned Splendid China amusement park in Central Florida. They also remind you not to miss the upcoming Gumball Rally at Disney World Florida [2]. TDLFAN has found more 25th anniversary info for the Tokyo Disney Resort. Find out what villainy is in store for the Halloween season, and where Indiana Jones merchandise will appear next. It seems that Disneyland Paris is finally filling its hotels to capacity. As a result, more hotels may finally be on the way. Disney and the Anaheim Garden Walk are making a big announcement in mid October and MiceChatters are wondering if it will be the announcement of Disney Hotels at the property or possibly a Disney purchase of the entire complex. Miley Cyrus [3] wants you to pay $250 to attend her sweet sixteen birthday at Disneyland. As always, there are dozens of Trip reports from Disney and other theme parks and vacation locations around the world. Dive on in to the MiceChat weekly roundup of Disney news, rumor, discussion, and trip reports HERE [4].

Great news today. Al Lutz is back with a huge update. Some of it good, some of it sad. Take the story of the new Disneyland Monorails for example. As you can see from the picture below, they are glorious to look at. But you can't ride them, and for good reason. A laundry list of problems need to be resolved before they can open to the public. Al also fills us in on the disingenuous marketing of Toy Story (Midway) Mania, the Innoventions House of the Future, Vacation Club troubles, Garden Walk concerns and possible sale, and construction updates for DCA and Tomorrowland. There is a lot to read, you can find Al's entire update HERE [1]. [1] http://miceage.micechat.com/allutz/al061708a.htm

What's new at Disneyland? The Innoventions house of the future at Disneyland prepares to host the media today. They will later be able to ride Toy Story Mania prior to Tomorrow's official opening (However, the ride has been previewing and soft opened for nearly a week). There is also news on Garden Walk, Indiana Jones and the temple of the broken ride, as well as construction updates and photos. David "Darkbeer" Michael has us covered.

Lots to read about today. We have both Disneyland and Disney World news and rumors for you. Kevin Yee brings a sobering column on what could happen at Disney World if oil prices continue to rise and park attendance drops. Disney could enact a rotating park closure schedule. He also updates us on a beautiful new restaurant at the Contemporary Resort, Star Wars weekend, and Toy Story Mania easter eggs and operational updates. Read Kevin Yee's Disney World Update HERE [1] David "Darkbeer" Michael updates us on what is new at the Disneyland resort. The new monorails have been on site for months now. Red has been operating on the beam without guests for what seems like a very long time. It seems that the Monorails were designed without air conditioning and with windows which don't open far enough to allow for adequate air flow. David also fills us in on Six Flags Magic Mountain, Anaheim Garden Walk, and Universal Studios fire fighters promotion. Read David's Southern California theme park update HERE. [2] [3] ?
