This is SO important, I hope someone can help!
We're down to 10 days until our very first magical trip to Disneyworld. It's a surprise trip for my son (5.5 yo) and I've been working on the big surprise for a bit now.
I didn't want to tell him too soon because, well, he's 5 and the 'are we going yet' syndrome might have made me not want to go so bad. His kindergarten teacher is REALLY appreciating this too. Plus, I figure one day he'll look back and think it was really cool how I built up to his surprise.
So every day for the last 11 days he's had the oppurtunity to earn a clue about a 'big surprise'. He earns this through good behavior, doing kind things, etc. The 'clues' are letters that spell out "I am going to Disneyworld'. He hangs them on the wall each night, and currently has "I am going R S L" I decided to scramble the words 'to' and 'Disneyworld' because while he's only 5, he's a bright cookie and would figure it out before the last day!
So...the plan for the final letter is that on the Monday evening before we leave, when we come in from school/work there will be a package on the porch, that is addressed to him. Inside is a beach towel and goggles, a water bottle, a journal, disposable cameras, etc. When he opens the box, a balloon (hopefully Mickey) will float out with the final letter attached to it. In the bottom of the box, I want to place a t-shirt (yes, we've gotten to what I'm looking for here
that I've made that says "I'm going to Disneyworld" and then put the date on it.
I have the t-shirt, the printable iron on pages, but NO PICTURE!
I cannot find one picture that I can print full size that will work! I'd love a Mickey and gang type pic, I've seen them even dressed in tourists gear, or posing for a photo, ANYTHING cute that will work for this shirt. He'll get to wear this on the plane, so in case anyone that sees him that he doesn't stop and tell that he's going (he's quite outgoing) won't miss the news, lol!
I've obviously given a bit of thought to how to 'pop the surprise' of the trip and want it to go PERFECTLY!
Can ANYONE point me to a nice printable that I can turn into an iron on so I can get this shirt made and check yet another thing off my list, pretty please??
Thanks in advance!
(10 days..whose gonna be 'too excited to sleep' the night before??)

. If you don't fine one there, pm and I can work on one during next week. I have a feeling you'll find something great there, though.
) What a great idea to make the t-shirt. I would like to find those pics, too. I guess I'm DIS illiterate, but I can't find them. Anyone have a link? THANKS!!
