Fantasyland Construction Including Beast’s Castle, Angelica from Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Meet & Greet – Photos & Video

Hi everyone!

We went to the Magic Kingdom today to check out the new Beast’s Castle that went up this weekend (below, left). It’s amazing to see it rising from behind the wall!  I especially enjoyed watching as a turret was lifted from below the castle to it’s proper place on the castle (below, right). Our video below shows that!

Work progresses on the rock work (below, left) near the castle. From different vantage points, the castle looks huge, but from others – especially with workers in front of it – the castle looks small (below, right). A great example of forced perspective!

Looking straight at the castle, you can see a variety of turrets that appear to still be in mid-paint (below, left). The view from Dumbo (below, right) overlooks the work going on beyond the wall.

Another view of the castle and work around it (below, left), and the Little Mermaid show building progresses (below, right).

Video #1 – Fantasyland Construction, Including Beast’s Castle from Dumbo 4/12/11 Magic Kingdom Disney World – The Beast’s Castle rises above the Fantasyland skyline, we have views from it from a variety of areas including Dumbo and the Astro Orbiter! You can see the rock work and more as well. Watch as a turret is lifted to the castle!

We saw characters all over the Magic Kingdom (including in Fantasyland) during our time at the park. Pinocchio passed by us while waving (below, left) and Mary Poppins talks to a young girl (below, right).

We headed to Adventureland (below, left) to see Angelica, the new pirate from the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean 4 (below, right). Her character is played by Penelope Cruz in the film.

Angelica (below, left and right) is in a temporary location at the Adventureland Veranda, where Lilo and Stitch used to be. She will be at the Pirates of the Caribbean starting on Friday, where Pirate Goofy is now. Goofy will then be in his cowboy outfit at Splash Mountain.

Angelica signed autographs for fans (below, left). She had quite a few guests wanting to meet her, even without the movie being out yet!  We expect Angelica to be a very popular addition to Adventureland (below, right).

Video #2 – Angelica from Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Meet & Greet Magic Kingdom 4/12/11 Walt Disney World – Angelica (a new character from Pirates of the Caribbean 4) is now greeting guests at the Magic Kingdom. This is her temporary meet-and-greet location, she will be at her new home on Friday!

The trolley show performers not only dance their way down Main Street USA, but the last performance of each set now includes dancing on the second floor of the train station. We’ll have video of that soon! We did enjoy a trolley ride down Main Street (below, left), and seeing the Mayor of Main Street along with the Dapper Dans and Streetmosphere performers (below, right).
