I think there would be ample space in adventure land for a river rapids and i think it would be a great addition to the Disneyland park as Disney seem to be concentrating on WDS park.
 
                                               

^The site just behind Indiana Jones would be perfect and I think it would prove to be a very popular attraction for evyone who visited and would increase traffic to this slightly remote area of the park.

A waterride is an edition in the curriculum and Adventureland would be a nice location, could use something new... so yes, depending on the general theme, decoration and location, a River-type waterride would be nice in Adventureland I think...   :wink:

Themed around the Emperors New Groove would be cool and fit in with Adventureland

Sounds great!  I think any kind of water ride (raft, flume,... ) would be more then welcome.

Any ride which is going to be closed for perhaps up to 3 months because of weather conditions is a bad idea.There are so many other attractions we need more at the moment (Soarin,Mickeys PhilharMagic,our old Litle Mermaid concept to name but a few)

I think some new rides that are not in any of the other parks would be better than cloning them from other disney parks.

Why would they close it  :shock:
I worked at Thorpe Park and they Never closed their rapids down unless it broke down. Infact I think the only time they shut it down was during the summer because the water level from the lake was too low!

Believe me just because its a water ride it wont stop people going on it because of bad weather. *remembers people going on Tidal wave in Thorpe on cold rainy days*


I don\'t know when, I don\'t know how, but I know something is starting right now.

A River Rapids ride was once considered for DLRP upon desiging the Disneyland Park.  It was a concept by Tony Baxter himself in the '70s that he had designed for the original Disneyland.  I forgot the name but it had something to do with dinosaurs who survived in a dormant volcano.

I think a rapids ride in Adventureland would be awesomes. Maybe something which is themed to a jungle would be coolios, especially using the Jungle Book characters, that would be nice.
