I swear that the whole bayou section was different than I remember it, especially the restaurant. Did they change it during the 30th anniversary renovation?

They will be adding some new effects but not changing anything. Jack Sparrow will be added to reflect the movie along with some other added features.

From the MiceAge site: "As the boats sail out into the "Battle Scene", and one of the ride's iconic moments, the riders will discover that the original 1967 pirate ship known as the "Wicked Wench" has been remade into the Black Pearl seen in the movies."
