Storybook Circus Soft Opens to the public for the first time

 

Photos

All of these photos were taken after sundown on my cell phone, so the photos aren't the best quality

Obligatory Big Thunder Mountain refurbishment photo. Tonight they were working in the queue.

This is on the Fastpass kiosk at Splash Mountain. Every single Fastpass machine on WDW property has this sign on it. Fastpass rules are being strongly enforced. Before you used to be able to come back with your Fastpass late, however you are no longer able too. This will help with capacity and assuring shorter waits.

The Liberty Belle Riverboat looks beautiful at night.

hmmm, I think we shall.

Being this is a soft open, most of Storybook Circus was....wall.

You can now get closer to the Little Mermaid construction. I need to go back in the day time and take photos.

Here's the new entrance to Dumbo

Being only one side of the new "Dueling Dumbos" was the only one ready, the actual queue line wasn't being used, they had what looked like a temporary fix.

Sadly my phone doesn't take the best pictures. But the new Dumbo is absolutely gorgeous!

The most exciting part to me is that it finally has water below it.

The Barnstormer also got an overlay. And as you can see....Fastpass

Personally, it doesn't look as "Disney" as it did before when it was themed to Toontown Fair. What you see in this picture is the only theming out in the actual ride path.

...yup

The new queue is also very long. (No, we didn't ride, just looked)

Some theming in the queue.

And then the ride E-Stopped. Good ol Vekoma.

A closer look at the new trains.

A look inside the new Fantasyland Train Station.

The new train station restrooms.

There was a lot of cute circus props all around the area.

We then decided to head over to Tomorrowland to ride the Peoplemover...basically because it didn't have a line. This is my cousin Joy and I.

Erin and Lauren ready to be moved.

Before we left the park we decided to do Stitch's Great Escape because it didn't have a line. This is the typical, "What did they do to the ExtraTERRORestial Alien Encounter!?!?" face.

It's also for the new X pass that is coming to WDW soon. For the time being, DL is not cracking down on the fastpass rules like WDW.

 

The new Dumbo does look nice, they should have installed a second Dumbo years ago.
