They should have had one gondola showing Mickey sweating whilst Minnie had fainted due to the heat. #noaircon

Seriously though, they look great. But I'm not sure about the dull grey towers. Are they not going to paint them or anything?

They look better than I expected but like Nimbus I am very surprised that the towers are still the ugly grey, I thought there'd be at least an attempt to blend them into their surroundings. What about 'show' Disney!?

Here's one of my photos from our trip in 1997 showing the red Skyway gondolas in the background:



Unfortunately I don't think I took a close-up photo of the gondolas nor a photo whilst riding them.

They didn't have aircon either.
