Cool picture of some of the preparations:

The pair is among a team of artists behind-the-scenes at Walt Disney World Resort Monday Nov. 17, 2003 in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. putting final touches on the six-foot-tall, 700-pound statues in preparation for tomorrow's festivities at the theme park to honor Mickey Mouse's 75th anniversary.

I look forward to getting my picture with all of them I hope WDW prints a list of all the locations of the statues. I will be in the World with my niece the day after Thanksgiving. My cousin is going to be at WDW for the festivities...Lucky her..I have to work, or my DH and I would have joined her.

Are these like those painted cows and horses we have here in NY? Are they being displayed all around the parks? We are leaving in 2 weeks and didn't even know about this!!
