Welcome back! A lot has changed around the construction site for Disney’s upcoming Riviera Resort, and it’s been a month since we last checked in. We decided to take another trip around the site to see what’s new!

Over at the resort, some new colors have been added to the shutters and shade around the windows. The shutters on this section of the resort will be green, with a blue shade.

On the right side of the resort, the shutters are blue and the shade is orange. An interesting difference in colors.
