A couple of people have thought this could have been taken in Ireland or England, but no. It's the Pirates Of The Caribbean building. I really like the look. Inside there are a couple a major differences between it and it's sister rides on our side of the puddle. Let me just say here, I HATE WDW's version. It's totally screwed up. Let me also say that DL's is one of my all-time favorites. DP's falls in between the 2. Diffs include: Up-Waterfall is in the beginning of the ride. There's a really nice part where you sail across some battlements ABOVE the ship battle. Pirates are climbing over the walls and one swings across on a rope above you. Nicely done. THEN you plunge down the 1st waterfall into the battle itself. The ride has yet to be PCed; they still chase each other in a lascivious way. There are a couple of excellent state-of-the-art pirates sword fighting. VERY well done. Most of the dialog is en francais, but I've got it all memorized anyway. Oh yeah, the skull warning you to keep your ruddy hands inside the boat is at the end of the ride and is probably telling you to not get out of the boat before it stops... again en francais.
