Yes, this weekend really exposed the fact that they didn't make much improvement crowd-control-wise to that area. They did what was necessary to squeeze Time Traveler in, and the new food setups are nice, but why on earth did they not make wider pathways a priority after going through all that?
The pinch point next to the TT gift shop is especially egregious. There's a pointlessly large flowerbed that sticks out and makes the pathway just barely wide enough for the parade to slip through. I'm curious if they'll come back in and reshape that this winter... or even before.
Whatever though, it's still an overall improvement I guess, and it looks great.
Time Traveler continues to be a huge hit. It is honestly more fun every time I ride. My first few rides I was kinda disappointed by the lack of intensity. Once you get over that though, you start to appreciate it for what it is. If you have a group of people riding with you it is even more fun because you can interact with them in the neighboring cars throughout the ride. Sounds like it still has plenty of teething issues with intermittent downtime, but at least it operates almost every day instead of being simply down all the time like LR was.
