1/9 Magic Kingdom Photo Update 40th Anniversary Merchandise, Splash Mountain Rehab

Hi everyone!

We went to the Magic Kingdom yesterday (sandwiched in between a Boma breakfast and Narcoosee's dinner for Jeff's birthday – dining reviews coming soon for those!)  I was hoping to get some Fantasyland construction photos, but it was very busy – so expect those, along with whatever Haunted Mansion queue construction photos I can get – later this week.

Follow Mousesteps on Twitter for current updates (and Disney news!)

It was a gorgeous day as we sailed past Narcoosee's at the Grand Floridian, where we'd be dining later:

Lotso Huggin' Bear has been hard to find in plush (I am surprised how popular he has been), but he can now be found all over property:

There is a large selection of 40th anniversary WDW merchandise alongside 2011 items.  I have always loved the old WDW logo, I used to have jewelry and other items with it when I was a kid!
