Here we go for a new DLP update, thanks to Max, D&M contributor and DLPWelcome webmaster. We'll have a look at all the renovations going on in the park, but before, i remind you to don't miss the summer special offer on the DLP book, more details at the end of this article.
This week-end Main Street station reopened to DLP visitors after more than 10 months of renovation. The result is there. Everything is like new. Only one regret, the presence of burns on the « EDRR » signs. As a reminder, the station has now a new floor less slippery, simple corridors instead of unused lockers for more than 15 years, woodwork, decors and new gildings.
Since 2 weeks, the structures used for the castle in Christmas season were removed after two years of installation uninterrupted . Their withdrawal is due to the renovation of the Castle, which will be fully repainted.
In addition, the wooden bridge to the Tanière du Dragon was renovated, climatic variations in Paris resulted in the appearance of sludge in the water of the moats and concrete at the foot of the castle is still in poor condition. The surprise of the day: mist effects of have been reactivated in the dragon lair (never seen it before).
Let's move to Fantasyland!
Now it's possible to know what Princess can be seen at the Princess Pavilion.
10:00 am, « Peter Pan’s Flight » has reopened after more than 6 months of renovations. It is a jewel! The success of the attraction will continue to grow thanks to this renovation which allowed a renovated lighting, animations, repainting of the decors and modernise the attraction with projections effects.
It's very simple, one has the feeling to rediscover the attraction with animations that we have not suspected, like the movements of Captain Hook boat in the scene over Neverland island, in addition to the appearance of projections making the whole ride more immersive! Everything is brighter.

Wow that opening scene of Peter Pan with the animatronics and shadow effect are much better than Disneyland's floating statues of the Darling children, they should upgrade Disneyland's.
ReplyDeleteMerci, thanks for the great update!
ReplyDeleteNice to see how things look now, it looks the big 25 is coming closer and closer :)
Not sure if I missed it but have the infamous geysers been restored near the haunted mansion across from thunder mountain?
ReplyDeleteThose stained glass windows in the train station are gorgeous! Not sure if this is the appropriate place but, we here in the states are all keeping France in are thoughts and hearts after that horrific attack! Vive la France et aux Etats Unis!
ReplyDeleteAlain, do you happen to know if they are going to get rid of that generic princessy pink and restore at least some of the original colours of the castle?
