I have been saying for some time that there is going to be some kind of reference to ‘taking a leap of faith’….and then the final plunge.
Just a guess….but it ‘fits’.

There's still time to add Dr. Facilier!Shocked we haven’t gotten a date yet since next week is likely Halfway to Halloween so that will be the marketing focus.

Gloria and Delores have been uncovered, finally!
Kind of wish there were more lilies. Or just more variance in color, in general. But it does look nice at night.

That railing looks like it might wind up unfinished when the ride opens, but that's about it.
I agree. I would like to see more vegetation to give it a swampier look. But not every part of the bayou looks the same. Some spots do have more water visible. And more vegetation (even if fake) might make it harder to keep the water clean?
Certainly befitting of an actual swamp but I feel the attraction still lacks the charm of the animated "Princess and the Frog Bayou" for lack of a better explanation. That image specifically aligns with the visuals of the attraction quite accurately but it does bring up an interesting observation. Our eyes immediately focus on the passengers in the boat and specifically "purple shirt" because of that lack of color variance. It also happens to be an issue with the attraction. It's bland. An interesting takeaway from that image shows the swamp water to be a murky, near fluorescent green. I wonder if colorant added to the TBA swamp wouldn't also help. It'd certainly be a nice color contrast against the magenta lilies.
In general, I just think TBA could use more pops of color to break up the monochromatic foliage and to really drive home this as being "Tiana's Bayou" and not a generic swamp, especially during the day where we don't have the added benefit of nighttime mood lighting.

Are any of the plants in this part real?

Sourced from the finest florists this side of the Big Easy.
(Good question. Guess it's a nope as it probably would have made a blog post)

Looks cluttered

Disney loves to use LED colored lighting! It sure is eye catching.
So when this opens (at least initially) do we think there will be no standby, just boarding groups and ILL?

I'm betting it looks less cluttered in the flesh where we can get a better sense of depth.

Additional photos from around the outdoor queue area.
Huzzah! The mystery crates have arrived! I wonder what's inside. Doesn't say. Ah, classic box stacks a.k.a. the pinnacle of modern Imagineering. All that's missing is a random lantern placed on top. There's still time.
