I just worry about the one with the picture of the "wench" from the ride. *sigh* You just KNOW that there will be someone who's going to protest her semi-exposed chest even though they will see more than that (with the way some young women dress) while in the park that day. Anyone up for a pool on the day it happens? *snerk* The pirate wearing the Mickey Pirate ears is so cool. I'm forwarding this to a friend cause he's waiting with, ahem, baited breath for the ride's opening next summer. He'll enjoy seeing the pix. 'specially the one with the worker WALKING into the tunnel. I love stuff like that.

Originally Posted By ttreber I just returned from the park yesterday! One important change: the menu at The Blue Bayou is a litte different for the new movie.

Not anymore- but oh well, hubby and I just shared our meal. There are also some cool new desserts you won't want to miss. Flying Dutchman cookie boat anyone?

Also interesting that on the toddler information guide it reccomends Roger Rabbit's CarTOON Spin but not Pinnochio's Daring Journey or Mr Toad's Wild Ride. (However, I understand why Snow White is off the list) The island in the Submarine Lagoon looks really neat. I'm looking foreward to what it looks like once they cover it with concrete and fill the lagoon with water. Hopefully the seagulls won't be too obnoxious. That would be particularly bad for the attraction's notoriously long line.
