"Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid" re-opens with improvements.

The "Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid" attraction at Magic Kingdom has recently undergone a 4 week refurbishment and upgrade. When the ride first opened in October 2012, and ever since, there has been complaints and criticism about the attraction, as high levels of bright lighting were used throughout - which therefore made the ceiling visible, and also utility fixtures situated above the ride track. The new lighting scheme throughout the attraction uses regular lighting and black lighting - and this certainly improves the feel of the ride. There have also been some other enhancements throughout the attraction - with much of the work being focused around the "under the sea" and "kiss the girl" scenes.
