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

The problem is that tiara-wearing princesses had little to do with the American frontier.

Nor with fictional employee owned food factories in 1930's New Orleans.

The fact that they do not even have the basic self-awareness to see the idiotic disconnect of having a massive symbol of royalty towering above an employee-owned business just shows how much they have lost the script.

Remember when WDI was once the standard bearer of theming and placemaking?

What a complete joke.

Good point. Is Tiana a tiara wearing princess or is she a businesswoman who created a co-op food business, or both?

I guess it does not matter. They needed to erase Splash, so they did whatever.

You have perfectly captured WDI's current strategic thematic vision.

2023 WDI: "Whatever."

I think the idea is to present it as both - you don't have to choose

Purely anecdotal but one of my coworkers went to Disney with his kids and while his kids were tall enough the look of Splash Mountain scared them off.

When I was a young boy Splash Mountain and its drops used to terrify me. Especially the one in the dark. That one grew to be my favorite.

The good news is it is no longer in the dark, but a trip through a brightly fluorescent lit co-op employee break room decorated with labor law posters.

You are immersed!!!

Where's the overtime sign up sheet? And the company softball team results? Immersion is broken!

Well clearly they are playing to children younger than 4 1/2 years old... with all this supposing about salt domes and the proper geological features of a salt dome, and how high they can be...lol
None of this should matter to the attraction...It is a raised section of land....and 50' rise from sea level is not really that high ...

They better lower that height requirement then. Which, they technically could with some adjustments.

I’m wondering if they’ll do boarding groups and individual lightning lane for this when it opens. Maybe Frontierland will be open for early entry as well.

Why are they working with the logs sitting in the flume? I would have expected them to remove them.

I thought they removed the logs and how is he getting pics from inside?

This is fake news.

The photo also appears to be from the riverboat, something rumored to be replaced, I’d be shocked if a major set piece like that hadn’t already been demolished this far into the changeover.

That appears to be Disneyland based on the logs being single not dual seats.

It also has show lighting on… no construction lighting to be seen.
