New castle!

Has anyone seen this? Disney Food Blog posted a picture of the castle renovation and it’s pink! Not sure what to think...🤔

The bottom half is still a grey colour, and the top half is "rose gold". Well, the bricks are a light rose colour and there are gold accents on the edges.

For me, the turrets are a bit too 'blue' at the moment but I'm sure those will fade in the Florida sunshine.

Here's a 'before' and 'after' comparison. I think the new paint job looks good and makes the castle "pop" more than before:

tbh, seen a few pics of this and I think it looked better before, it makes it look a bit cheap and bright like a toy. hopefully it will change back eventually.

Castle was painted pink in 1996 for the 25th anniversary. I remember the hoo-haa over it back then. Maybe they are doing this again for the 50th?

Dont like the pink, but the blue does look good at least. No doubt after a year or two in the sun the blue will be no where near as vibrant, hopefully the pink will fade away as well!
