Magic Kingdom Update - Big Thunder Rehab (Part 1)

The Magic Kingdom is one of the most dynamic theme parks in the world. It is currently receiving the biggest expansion in the park's history (by the way, some great photos of Fantasyland's Expansion can be found here), some of the original attractions are being (or have already been) refreshed, and most of the facades of the themed areas are being refurbished.

Let's take a look at the current status of the work being done around the park:

The Sunshine Tree Terrace's facade is still receiving some work:

One of the newest portals is also found in Adventureland:

The Tiki Room. This is the version we all love:

Moving over to Frontierland, we noticed that the menu of the Golden Oak Outpost is gone again:

Splash Mountain:

Something's missing here:

Some work is also being done on the bridge near Splash Mountain:

It is finally time to check out the current status of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad's refurbishment:

Now, what if we took the Riverboat to check out the rest of the ride? You know what? Let's do it!:
