Disneyland Walkthrough | First Week of September and Start of Halloween at Disney

Stepping into magic and into the Disneyland park for a Labor Day walkthrough on a gorgeous September day. Although it’s barely Labor Day, Disneyland has fully embraced the Halloween spirit! Immediately upon stepping foot on Main Street U.S.A., we spot some of our favorite Disney characters in Halloween costumes. Goofy, Daisy Duck, Minnie Mouse and Mickey Mouse are out and about taking pictures with guests. After saying hello to Mickey Mouse, we take another look at the pumpkin decor atop the Main Street shops, pausing to admire some of the details. At the edge of New Orleans Square, we stop to admire the activity on the Rivers of America, noticing both the Mark Twain and Columbia seem to be cruising the waters. We also head over to check out the progress on Tiana’s Palace (15:13), set to open within the week, as well as the newly opened Haunted Mansion Holiday, fully decorated in Nightmare Before Christmas theming (15:53), both indoors and out. We catch Winnie the Pooh in Critter Country before heading into Batuu, but before doing so, take a moment to admire the beauty of Disneyland, even amongst the crowds. We pause to watch a canoe drift past, and then are lucky to catch the Columbia, which feels so close you can almost touch it. When we finally arrive in Galaxy’s Edge, we find Kylo and the Strormtroopers, always up to no good. We bid farewell to the stormtroopers and proceed towards Fantasyland, a heavily crowded area. Much like Fantasyland, Toontown is also crowded, but getting to see and say hello to Daisy Duck makes the crowds worth while in this land. Off in the distance, we see Mary Poppins and Bert are headed toward us as we head to Ariel’s meet and greet over by Edelweiss Snacks and across from Storybookland. We make our way over to Tomorrowland, wrapping around Matterhorn mountain and the Nemo Tidepools before making it inside the land, weaving around the pathway and past the Astro Orbitor towards the castle. We can’t help but enjoy the sight of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle on this beautiful September day. We hope you enjoyed this Disneyland park walking tour. Thanks for watching!

@@steppingintomagic, Yes but so many great attractions have come and gone , some became stale while others succumbed to expansion . My only hope for Disney as a whole is to return to a grounded management in appealing to their Core audiences.
Disneyland Anaheim WAS the original Magic Kingdom ( I was a Cast member in the 70s while "world" was being built , when Carousel of Progress was discarded for America Sings , when the hole in the Matterhorn was sealed because the Skyway was discontinued and many more beloved attractions were shuttered like the Country Bear Jamboree (replaced w Poo's ride...smh)).
Disney's "wokeness" is now affecting the U.S. parks , it was sad when I noticed some years ago , the bathrooms in Fantasyland were no longer labeled "Prince" and "Princess" .. so sad . I'm told a great boomer outcry had the titles returned to their origins .
Thank you for your time and passion in bringing us along with you .. your equipment is top notch, your talent immense .

Disney must have been a lot different since the 50s way before my time not like how the park is today.
