How wet do you get on rides-going in December

[A&Amomma]

Hi,

Will be in DL on December 27th, coming from Toronto. First time in DL and we are leaving for a cruise the next day, so we know it'll be very busy, but we had no other day.

We would love to try Tiana's Bayou Adventure, but don't want to be soaked in December when it's colder. Does it make sense to go on this ride? Don't plan on carrying a change of clothes as we will be taking an uber from Long beach.

Any other rides we get really wet on that maybe we avoid?

TIA

Tiana's and Grizzly River Rapids in DCA will get you wet. You might get splashed on Pirates. If the sun is out, you should be able to dry out if you ride midday.

Narrowly avoided a wet me after Matterhorn…

Tiana's Bayou Adventure was the most wet I've EVER gotten on a water ride. The worst drop isn't even the final one - it's the one where you're shrunk down to the size of a frog. A GIANT wave came over the entire log and every inch of my body was soaked. It was genuinely insane. I was so glad I wore my flip flops instead of my sneakers when I rode it.

I guess we will not be going on it then LOL

A poncho will do wonders to help keep you dry. Maybe a couple plastic bags on/over you shoes.

I should of known it would be bad when I saw multiple people in the queue tying black garbage bags to their shoes...

Your log also fills up with maybe a foot or less of water which also made me glad I wasn't wearing my sneakers.

Yep - that'll happen on the Disneyland version. The boats take on water and they didn't fixt that with the retheme. Back in the day I had worn a plastic poncho and was still soaked to the bone with inches of water in the bottom of the boat. Our shoes were soaked!

Yeah, Tiana's absolute soaked me to the core. Next time we're going to rent a main street locker and bring a change of shoes just for that ride because walking around in wet shoes/socks wasn't it.

We rode Tiana in early January. Wore ponchos and I had brought a large garbage bag to set my backpack into. It would have been soaked sitting on the floor without it. I think I'm going to get some rain booties for this trip. Lots of people coming off the ride were absolutely soaked.

I've been ok riding in the late morning (so I can dry off during the warmest part of the day) with a cheap poncho and switching to sandals to avoid the worst of it. That trip I had a waterproof backpack, but if I didn't, I would likely just put it in a trash bag. To me, that's the best balance of getting to experience the ride without being thoroughly soaked, and still not going through the trouble to bring/store a full change of clothes.

You get SOAKED on Tiana’s.

Like I literally had a whole real wave wash over me
It went in everything. Completely soaked.
And it’s not the big drop at the end, it’s the first two inside of the mountain.
I learned to avoid the front of the log, that’s the worst seat in my opinion.

A poncho is a wonderful investment
