Interesting or quaint little things at DLR?

[AliciaS]

We have been to WDW over ten times and know about things like the singing lessons coming from a room on Main Street or the music machine at the train station (LOVE THAT) or Tinkerbell in a drawer or the old-fashioned phone you can listen in on. What cute little touches does DLR have - things we might miss if we hadn't known about them beforehand?

Thanks so much!

ToonTown - outside Roger Rabbit, lift open the boxes and listen

I think it is the train station outside of NES, you can hear the speech Walt gave on opening day in morse code.

Touch the apple outside of the Snow White ride. Also, when you exit the boats on the Jungle Cruise, ask for a map of the ride.

Alice and the Mad Hatter (sometimes Peter Pan too) play musical chairs at 2:30 (daily I believe) at Coke Corner on Main Street. It's not on the schedule, but something we always do with our girls when we are there.

These are great so far. Thank you! Keep 'em coming! I look forward to printing this out and giving them all a try.

Ooh DH is going to have a field day with that speech. Morse code was his job in the military. I'll have to make sure to have a little notebook in my purse so he can jot some down.

Have you heard of hidden mickeys?

Listen to the party line phones in the Market House on Main Street. Walk down the walkway there next to it and listen.

On the FAQ thread sticky at the top we have a few of the prior threads listed.

I'm putting them here. It would be great if anyone can add to them.

Also at Snow White, look at the windows above the ride.

Go through the castle, the new and improved Sleeping Beauty exhibit is open and it's wonderful! One of the doors is particularly interesting...

If they're working, there are a few fun "****y traps" in Indiana Jones.

If you wait in the Tinkerbelle/fairy queue, you can hear the fairies.

On King Arthur's Carousel, look for the "Mary Poppins" horse. It was designed by Julie Andrews and is the "lead" horse. It has an umbrella on it.

These are fabulous!! And thank you Mary Jo for all those links. Wow! I have reading to do!! I am so happy to see that DLR has so many little touches. The details are what make Disney, Disney.

Less than six months to go. Woo and hoo!

(And Crazy Duck - yes I've heard of Hidden Mickeys. They're always fun to spot )

Oh No, we are not allowed to say "b o o b y" trap? Yikes!

I didn't realize that when I typed it! Whoops!

Another thing to look for, they have added new Disney characters to Small World! They are very well done and blend in quite well, but they are not the typical Small World dolls. Look for Peter Pan, Cinderella, Alice, Mulan and more!
