It can be hard to imagine and accept it, but the Disneyland Resort has now officially been closed for more than an entire month. The gates remain locked, construction is at a standstill, and the streets are empty. But how does the park look after being closed for so long? Well, we found a video to answer just that.
YouTuber @JustinScarred took it upon himself to stop by the Happiest Place on Earth during a leisurely stroll around Anaheim, and he decided to document his adventure for all of the Disney fans to see.
In the video caption he wrote:

When we go if just the wife and I we still get a 1 bedroom, if the boys join us we do the 2 bedroom ( like the extra space ) Once we were going with camping friends and their 2 girls so we offered to try for a Grand Villa ( 3 bedroom ) but after really looking into it, it was actually cheaper to get two 2 bedroom units plus I also felt the separation time might be needed, then they said can we bring the dog??? So we brought the campers which was the original plan

Yummy!
ill have to try it soon 

Have you seen this yet? 
Super job by these people. Made me laugh, hope you do too.
 

I love this so much I think I've watched it 6 times!
There are a couple other cute ones that have popped up too:
 

Me too!
lol!

Tried to book a FP at the 60 day mark and they were all gone.  So was smugglers run, toy story mania, slinky, and alien saucers.
 
I really wish they would get rid of all FPs!

We have always enjoyed the breakfast at Whispering Canyon.

Get breakfast to go from the French bakery in Epcot. Then walk over to the Skyline and eat your breakfast in the air.

The overal athestic of the land is top notch. The textures, the layout, the sounds, etc are very well done. Better than Pandora, I think. I really liked the bazaar area attached to Ronto's Roasters. Even the restrooms are cool. The gift shop adjacent to Smugglers Run is really nice. The artifacts on the walls are amazingly detailed. Overall it truly feels like another world. It is also really nice at nighttime. 
The lightsaber build experience was also very cool. The CM that we had directing it was great. He really pulled you into the story and made it feel real. Bode absolutely loved it. 
Smugglers Run ride was kind of "meh" for me. It was good, but not jaw dropping like I felt when riding FoP for the first time. The que,  however, is almost as good as the ride. I really wish it was 3D. I feel like Star Tours is more exciting. 
I hope RotR is a standout. SR is about a 30 minute wait tops, IMHO. 
Overall it is really good. The CM's and characters in the land do a great job of making it seem like you're really in a Star Wars movie location. 

We can make that claim for Disneyland in 1971.......Linda and her dad in the bottom pic.

They are getting ready for Galaxy's Edge at WDW
 

Heck no!  My tree, lights and all the ornaments fit in a tote bag and I can set it up on a table where dogs can't get to it.  In other words, it's perfect.  LOL

They've been putting put a lot of designs lately with the retro feel.  I'm a fan.  

My son would love an authentic R2-D2.   He better start saving his money because I’m not buying him one. 😂 

Simple solution...Get a bigger tree!

If you build it, they will buy merchandise....
 

When avatar first opened there were wait times way inexcess of 4 hours.  Are the storm troopers going to pull people out of line after 4 hours?  
Its going to be a cluster (insert   expletive here). 
I get the idea behind a 4 hour limit. 
Good idea but it’s jist not going to work.
I can see it now...yes sir. I understand you waited in line for over 4 hours but we have a 4 hour time limit so we can let other people wait in line for 4 hours and then tell them to leave also. 
The road to hell is paved with good intentions!

Beautiful!
