I know I already heard about this sometime last year. Maybe when I was at WDW in December? Is this the official announcement from Disney?

This is photos of the work happening not an official announcement.

The former WL pool bar is being replaced "Salon by the Springs"

As just a regular old fuddy duddy, I am going to miss Trout Pass. I have vivid memories of many beers downed while sitting on the whirlpool side, talking to anybody that would carry on a conversation. Salon? Really? Salon? Can I get my nails done there? What's next? Boutique by the Canyon instead of Territory Lounge?

So I get that animal kingdom will be busier with Avatar. Why the extra bus loop? Wouldn't every resort already have a stop in the loop somewhere? Or is this for tour busses or something? Or is it just extra drop off area or something.

Some resorts share a stop. This will open up the area a bit more. MK doubles the size of their bus stop a few years ago. This isn't quite as large but with increased traffic is probably necessary.

Could it also have something to do with the longer busses as well?

It could. The articulated buses are mainly used for values and moderates to MK.

Not sure about a salon, but not surprised. The new bar kills it-great vibe and atmosphere like 20 yards away. Went twice this week.

Are you sure it is not Saloon by the Springs?

One of the main characters in Steven Universe is a lesbian couple who love each-other so much they fused into one person, with them and several other female characters shown kissing each other. The show's been censored at least a few times in Europe and other territories. Also, wasn't there a gay kiss in Gravity Falls? Since in the last episode the two cops get together? Maybe they just declare their love for each other and that's it.

I know they changed things around when they dubbed and aired Sailor Moon for U.S. audience due to content..that included changing genders around and relationships..I don't know however if the original anime showed kissing though.

I can't remember if the first anime featured two women kissing, but in the new one they've had Sailor Moon and Sailor Uranus kiss.

No it's Salon.

Yeah but I am thinking when Pandora opens, they might have some from values to AK??? Especially since busses are the only way to get there.

No it's Salon.

Saloon/Salon, what's the difference?

Uh... I'm going to argue that and probably chop it up to a poorly worded headline. It's maybe a first for Disney, but definitely not a first among other shows out there.

Yes. If you read the article, it does say it's a first for Disney not a first for animation.

Looks really cool. Reminds me of Journey to the center of the Earth at Tokyo DisneySea. Can't wait to see more.
