WDWNT Reporter Dirk Wallen visited the Magic Kingdom on Saturday and has some fantastic pictures of new progress on the Big Thunder Mountain interactive queue, A Pirate’s Life: Treasures of the Seven Seas, the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and more, so let’s take a look:
While the Main Street Bakery is closed, guests can head to the Tomorrowland Terrace
Plenty of options at Tomorrowland Terrace, including beignets!
The flowers in the hub have gone to Valentine’s Day colors and the ducks love it…
Valentine’s Day cupcakes available at Big Top Treats
I’ve heard of panning for gold…
More props and interactive elements have been installed in the queue at Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
The “exploding” crates are no longer under tarps
These huge machines popped up in the second-half of the queue over the weekend
It looks like guests will play some sort of game where they turn a lever
Spinning handles on the back of another machine
The refurbishment of Splash Mountain continues
Lots of painting going on
Golden Oak Outpost is closed again
Work continues on the Adventureland Veranda building
Another area of the building is also walled-off
The Crow’s Nest is out from behind tarps and it looks quite different… we expect it to play a role in “A Pirate’s Adventure”
More props for “A Pirate’s Adventure” have been installed throughout Adventureland
Jack Sparrow’s compass
This was the first prop installed a few months ago
A cannon
Ball and chains
Some props by the Jungle Cruise
Nearby, a pirate skeleton lies under the water near a treasure chest
It appears these skulls near the Pirates of the Caribbean entrance will talk
Another strange set of props
Gun powder
Sleepy Hollow Refreshments is open while the exterior is refurbished
Walls up outside of the Haunted Mansion and Yankee Trader
Tarps still up on Columbia Harbour House
The latest progress on the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Valentine’s Day and St. Patrick’s Day lanyards are out
As is the new Test Track logo pin
Over at The Villas at the Grand Floridian, we can start to make out windows
