Here are all of the photos that Richard has uploaded.
This includes a game where participants' movements crack a whip through an Xbox Kinect system.
New interactive elements have been added to the homestead building.
Some artwork is already missing.
The pathway is lined with animal artwork and coloured perspex triangles.
The once sparse pathway from the Log Ride to Corroboree has been spruced up with this "Rainbow Serpent" motif.
The Corroboree expansion has opened.
This photo is certified 100% cage free.
The signage has been given a lick of paint, complete with a demonic face in the oil drop. The meaning of this theming addition is, presumably, "because we could".
The cable coupling that was damaged by a ride malfunction late last year has been replaced. Seen here between "R" and "O".
... a shade cloth that is held on with zip-ties and is already partly separated. This is exactly the kind of safe, definitely manufacturer-approved modification we love to see on the moving components of rides at Dreamworld.
A shade cloth has been added to the maintenance platform on the catch car...
Speaking of Giant Drop, the western side has reopened after several months of closure.
Dreamworld haven't been clear as to whether the reservoir, which was purpose-built for the 1986 rapids ride, will remain or will be levelled.
Dreamworld told us in November that this series of elevated pathways around the Giant Drop will be removed and simplified, presumably after the Gold Rush demolition is completed.
The ride's reservoir remains full of water.
The old Eureka Mountain Mine Ride site sits empty while off in the distance it can be seen that the conveyor -- the location of 2016's tragic accident -- has been removed from Thunder River Rapids.
The fenced area just for vehicles and storage gives a good indication of just how big the job is.
Out the front of the park, a considerable area has been fenced off for demolition vehicles to come and go.
It'll be interesting to see just what becomes of the area when the foreboding walls that surround Thunder River Rapids are removed.
Vintage theming elements like this are being carefully removed for future use.
