MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

[ddisneyd]

I still think May for WDW, and August for Disneyland. They will let everyone at the D23 ride it on August 9th.

May would be nice

My Birthday is the last Saturday in July, and I'd really love to spend it goin' down to the bayou.

The Rockin' New Years Eve broadcast is supposed to have a plug for what's coming to WDW in 2024.

We may get more details then, or just a recap of what was shown on the Xmas parade special.

 

[Disgruntled Walt]

I'm really curious to know how they will account for the stark difference in ride vehicle speed between the WDW and DL versions of this attraction. DL's flies through the flume, with barely any time to look at anything, whereas WDW's is a much more leisurely pace.

Out of curiosity, have we seen any art or drawings of the “log” vehicles? Are they just going to remove Brer Rabbit off the current logs and repurpose them?? I haven’t seen anything on them…maybe they’re getting treated with Flex Paste and tape so they won’t leak and sink??

Good question. Somehow the log ride vehicle seems more out of place with Tiana’s, but I am not sure why

Maybe they will be giant fiberglass beignets ...and that is the reason they will be pumping the Beignet smell into the queue....

Personally I'd make them a variety of different forest critters so some of the rabbits can stay.

Perhaps a re-skin as a barrel ?

I was thinking a salt shaker laying on its side…

Seems like it’s a log in all the concept art and models:

 

[Disgruntled Walt]

Is that Brer Rabbit?!

Yes. His presence was remarked upon months ago when the model was first unveiled. It’s presumably a mistake (and a sloppy one at that).

That’s exactly my point…all this $$$ being spent, and NO change to the log??? They’re just going to take a saw to Brer Rabbit on each log??? They made it a point to remove the weather vane off the ride but he’s staying on each log…

To me it kind of looks like Donkey from Shrek.

He's obviously not staying on the ride vehicles, it was just an oversight by whoever 3D printed the ride vehicles for the model.

 

[_caleb]

I think it would be very interesting if they did leave the Brer Rabbit head on the logs.

 

[Bocabear]

Well...the fact that they are logs in a salt mine Foods Co-op.... It actually would not bother me in the least if the logs were just left as they were, but I feel certain they will be changed.

Don't they ride on a log during the bayou song?
