It’s time again for a construction update!  With “Summer 2012″ looming on the horizon, Disney California Adventure is still a maze of construction walls.  The Pan Pacific inspired main entrance is done, but Buena Vista Street is still a mass of steel and Cars Land is littered with construction equipment.  There’s even a surprise construction wall [...]

On Monday, September 6, 2010 the Maliboomer launched its last rider up into the skies above Disney California Adventure at Disneyland Resort. On September 7 the Maliboomer closed as part of the re-theming of the Paradise Pier section of the park. Why is Disney demolishing this perfectly good ride?
