It was last week. They take it down for Wishes. Pretty interesting to see guys being taken in a basket to the top of the castle. Now if that were my first trip to Disney - I might not have liked it so much.

Wow! Christmas was over 2 months ago. Can't possibly still be taking lights off the castle, can they? Are they doing other work on the castle?

After "Alice in Wonderland" and "Wicked Witch", the Disney continues dynamically highlight the big screen classic tales.
The "Cinderella" would not be an exception to the rule. Sixty years later, again acquires flesh and bones - along of course with the glass slipper.
The world premiere of the film took place in the German capital. Presented out of competition section at this year's Berlinale.
Actress Lily James is who plays Cinderella and co-star is the Richard Madden, who plays the role of the prince who falls in love.
Kate Blanchett plays the role of stepmother and argues that the adaptation of the story in modern times add something else in history.
The new film, which tells the beloved young and old Cinderella story, will be released in Greek cinemas from March 12th.

It was up one August when we were there celebrating our Anniversary (I'm assuming putting up lights for Christmas) but we couldn't get any Photopass pictures for our Anniversary with the castle in the background because the crane was always there. Looks to me like they could do this kind of stuff at night or at least not take so long to get it done. Yes, before I get flamed, I know it takes a lot of work and time to put the lights on the castle, but it sure ruins the experience for people several times of the year. Why would they still be taking down lights three months after Christmas?

I could be wrong but weren't they working on a completely submersive experience to correlate to the show they are installing at DL? Be glad we only got a crane. They got a giant skrim covering theirs.

It's really not that bad. We've been down and have crane shots with Photopass and our own camera with castle. With a little,very easy photoshop work - Poof, it's gone! Along with inconvenient tourists that may ruin an otherwise great pict!! Grin

Seems like it's been there for an awfully long time. I say they should dress it like a dragon!

The crane is a pain, I have been there when It's up, but I do like to try and photoshop it out of my pics when I can. Or I get creative and take close ups (as below with the crane side out of view). You can always get down on the ground and add a person in this shot. Smile

As Coleby pointed out, look at Sleeping Beauty Castle, Disneyland. Can't help that with Photoshop!


I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.
