We will have to get over there before July 20th when they are scheduled to leave, according to their website.

Definitely worth the trip to see them!! Did your BF tell you which 15 are here in Atlanta? I did see all 75 in MK, but don't know whose are here. They're all wonderful.

I have seen her photos online of all the statues that's why I'm dying to go. I'm a scrapbooker so this is scrapper's dream. Now to just find the time to get there......

I didn't realize that is where the Mickey statues are. I might have to go check them out. I haven't been to Underground in a loooong time.

There were supposed to be 15 Mickey statues in five different cities. On July 4th, my family went to the Salute 2 America parade and stopped by Underground to check out the statues. We were disappointed. We were only able to locate 8 or 9; they were spread out all over and difficult to locate. Also, some were damaged None of the ones we were hoping to see were there (Elton John's, John Travolta's, Star Jones'......) On a lighter note the "cows" were on the upper level and we enjoyed seeing them again (although we thought they'd have been auctioned off by now
