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

[ToTBellHop]

I wear glasses, so I hope they don't fog up too badly from the mist effects. I have to shield my glasses on Universal's ET ride in its misty segments due to it being blasted at full force at guests. Same could happen with the mist projection that was used in Pirates if I let the vapor hit them. The calm layers of mist used in the fort bombardment scene doesn't cause any issues however. Seems to happen worse when it's more turbulent and thick right around the head. Makes me a bit concerned with these new fog effects since they look like they might be both thick and turbulent.

Don’t your glasses get wet 3 seconds later?

A good look at the Bayou mist:

And now we know the front runner for the first thing that stops working and is never repaired.

I hope it is. That view of the park from the top is great. Not sure why they would want to obscure that.

You don't think coming up out of the mist revealing the view won't be cool?

No, I have a method of dealing with that. I duck down and shield them when I reach the very bottom, which is only a split second (I do this more to minimize getting wet, but it helps avoid the glasses problem too). Liquid water actually isn't nearly as much of a problem as fog. The glass fogging up is much more of an obstruction than a splash of water, it also lingers for much longer and sometimes even requires me to remove and wipe them. Water rolls off pretty much immediately, or it'll only leave small droplets and doesn't affect my ability to see all that much.

So THAT'S what they meant by the backside of water!

Thing is, if you line up your shot just the right way, the boat does look like it has a butt crack...

Depending on where exactly the mist is (I haven’t watched any video or seen any pics yet) you could only get a split-second view before dropping.

Whether numbers are accurate or not, it's wild to think that one singular attraction can bring in that much money per year. Disney is laughing

“We have them paying more than ever for tickets PLUS we’ve convinced them by our bungling of park capacity for 15 years that they have to pay to ride things?!?!”

The Magic Kingdom now has its very own Yeti.

It won't make it more than a couple of months before it breaks.

I mean, it seems like it’s right after the mama odie scene off to the side and it goes pretty slow at the top.. so it probably won’t be much different than before view wise

If it breaks and they try to fix it, the top of the salt dome will collapse. See it while you can!

Is there wind in Florida?

Well of course, that's why everyone's so concerned that the flowers will blow downtown

 

[Drew the Disney Dude]

The site is VERY active this morning.

Personally, no. I like having the view for a handful of seconds rather than just a split second.

You don't even know if the view will be different at all yet, the mist could be far enough back it doesn't change the sightline at all

I feel like in Florida heat, my sunglasses and glasses are constant fog.

So if media previews are June 9-10 (roughly a month out) shouldn’t they be announcing the opening soon? Don’t previews typically occur for cast members before media?

Yes

I watched the video on the main page. The mist is right at the peak of the hill. You're going to get half a second of view before dropping. Presuming it's not affected by the wind.

Tomorrow ?
it seems like this mist effect will be cool at night but I can't see how it will be the same with the bright Florida sunshine behind it during the day , but I guess we will see soon enough.
