Got to see the Tiki Room on the re-opening day. While I'm disappointed that they didn't restore the old iconic A-frame marquee tower, the new entrance is very nicely done. And, the lania area looks fantastic. Likewise, the interior of the Tiki Room looks fabulous. Highest compliments and thanks to everyone who worked on it for making this beloved attraction sparkle again. And, special thanks to TikiCutie for her fine work and reports here. There is just one thing about the show that I found disappointing. My friend and I sat in the back row, where I've sat many, many times in the past, and found that our views of the birdmobile and the drumming tikis were partly blocked and obscured by the singing orchid planters. It seemed like they had repositioned them (maybe moved them forward towards the center of the room some, or lowered them). It is unfortunate, because the blocked view really diminishes enjoyment of the show from the rear seats. About a third of the birdmobile was obscured and I could barely see any of the drumming tikis. Maybe this is something they can remedy at some point. Other than that, everything is wonderful. I look forward to more of Disneyland getting such great TLC and the tarnished magic restored.
