They were dancing and posing with guests for photos, signing autographs... The whole enchilada. My 80-year-old mother-in-law was absolutely enthralled by it all (this was her first visit to Disneyland) and got to have her photo taken with her favorite - Donald Duck. It was really a lot of fun! That said... I LOVE the return of the classic-look Tomorrowland Terrace! Dang it looks GOOD!!

I think that the new roof stuff makes it easier to have lots of characters in the area, since it feels less confined that the huge wall-like structure that was there before. It would also make it easier to show more people that there are characters over there.

Originally Posted By myeticket Darkbeer, thanks so much for the great pics! My favorite was the Donald Duck pumpkin too! I never really see Donald in Disneyland anymore. So, its great to see his likeness in pumpkin form. Darkbeer, do you think the walls around the main entrance flower bed will be down by next week? I'm going next week and I hope I don't see a wall around that area. I was hoping to see a new halloween themed flower bed. Also, your there all the time. How do you think the crowds will be next week? Im not worried about gay days, I'm leaving on saturday anyway.

It also looks like it would have been pretty easy to modify to fit how the land is beginning to look now. Does anybody know when the change to the Buzz design took place, and why they didn't just use this, as it seems like it was probably fairly new then. <a href="http://lostworld.pair.com/disneyland/tomorrowland/tomorrowland_images/terrace-stage-may22.jpg" target="_blank">http://lostworld.pair.com/disn eyland/tomorrowland/tomorrowland_images/terrace-stage-may22.jpg</a>

Hopefully it was not just for the private party tonight..
