I know I'm eagerly anticipating an entire blog post on the backstory and cultural relevance of the floor tile selection!

You'll have to wait for the book release at D23 and buy it.

They used to be.

I know, which is why I want to know why they aren't now. lol It's like the designers have never been in a crowded, public place.

Is there a reason the lights couldn't have gone along the outside walls instead of literally in the middle of the walkway??

There is no way thats going to last long,,,they keep making beep decisions with this park.

A new palm tree has been planted near a group of much older trees in World Discovery, across from Connections Eatery. There was previously a large circular planter over this spot in the pavement.

Love this sort of stuff.

A ride doesn’t need a massive overhaul all at once, iterative improvements through the years culminate to an exceptional experience over time. It reminds me of Disneyland.

I honestly wish they would leave more room for improvement in new rides. A lot may never come to fruition, but if you allow for future plussing (not an excuse to cheap out) you can ultimately deliver a better product through the years.

There's one on the left side and one to thr right now, before both were in the right.

Looks like they're going for a consistent vibe in all of their bayous.

I like improved lighting but I feel this needs to be a bit adjusted. Seems overdone but again, pictures and videos aren't going to show what it's really like. Anyways, I'm so happy to see the ride getting regular love and can't wait to see it in person.

I wonder if LwtL's Christmas decorations, which totally was a huge draw with queues at night hitting an hour, was a sign that if they spruced it up a bit more outside of Christmas, it would help with capacity, since it often only has a 5 minute queue.

I hope wdwmagic can get a better video, that sites video is constant ads and then goes into a whole different video.
