As part of the big DCA Expansion project, there are a number of attractions around Paradise Pier that are being re-themed. Mickey’s Fun Wheel opened on Monday, May 4. The former Sun Wheel attraction received several changes during the re-theming project, including an actual facelift — the sun face on the wheel has been replaced by a classic “pie-eyed” Mickey face. The attraction also received a new paint job with a new color scheme and the cars feature the faces of different Disney characters.
The Up pre-parade opened on Friday, May 8. This float promoting the upcoming Disney*Pixar movie precedes the Pixar Play Parade. We saw the preview for Up when we saw the new Star Trek movie this weekend (which we really enjoyed!) and it looks very entertaining. Carl Fredricksen (check out the tennis balls on the legs of his cane) and Russell wave to the crowd from the front of the float.
And shaggy dog Dug waves from the back of the float.
