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

[TTA94]

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

We’ll see how it fares after a hurricane lol.

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?

Believe it or not salt mist is actually a thing.
“The air in the mine, saturated with a salt mist, is very healthy and is the reason why the mine has been used as a healthcare facility since the 19th century.”

It went down for about 10 minutes that night. It had evac'd the previous two nights, though.

Wonder how much was involved in lack of continuous maintenance through the years. What with the failures of the set pieces due to lack of maintenance how much overflowed to the ride system...

I actually like the mist idea, except it will be broken within a week and they won't fix it and they'll spin at as a 'opening week limited time magic' activation

 

[Sir_Cliff]

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

Well, now that we've finished criticising the dialogue in the attraction based on a few words heard out of context, it's time to criticise how a mist effect no-one has experienced ruins the view.

I also get people's scepticism about how long this effect is kept working, but can't we wait until it actually stops working and isn't repaired before we start complaining about how it has stopped working and Disney won't repair it?

A few more photos from this morning. They have installed the Tiana’s Foods "stand" under the train station for the touch points.

And I think the vast majority of guests will be more preoccupied with the 50 foot drop in front of them than the realization that their two second view became a one second view lol.

I think maybe we finally know this weird bar is for the mist then I guess?

Well, that's one motivation to keep the mist working

I can believe that. How often was the mist working in POTC before they decided to stop doing it?

The biggest mist crime has to be at the top of Expedition Everest.

I wouldn't mind the mist at all, especially when going through it on a hot day or night. The real concern is how long it will be around. Sorry but it's a valid concern. It was a crap shoot getting the mist and projection in POTC. You never knew when it was going to work.

I was going to comment this but you beat me to it.

I suppose so since I never knew mist was supposed to be there. That really DOES make it a crime that it was never repaired.

Wait what?! I've never heard of that.

Regarding Tiana, I am happy to wait to ride to see how it all comes together. I still have a lot of faith in this ride. I did LOVE that brief view of the park right before the drop, but you get a similar view earlier in the ride which is also quite nice.

Some might call it a mist opportunity... I'll take a self imposed 24 ban on this thread sorry.

Well at the top of Everest you are supposed to be pretty much in the clouds, and there was an elaborate misting system installed to cover the peaks with dense mist, visible from the ground and on the ride. The mist system had all kinds of issues, including corroding all kinds of systems, and was permanently deactivated.

I saw Everest in its Glory Days! Full mist, full motion on the yeti, even the bird on a stick! The mist effect was really cool.
