Things to look for around the parks

[surgefest]

What different things should we look for around both DL park and DCA park?? for example.. above the firestation where walt's light is on at night...etc... thanks for any and all responses...

Well 2 that I can think of off the top of my head are...

1. When in Fantasyland, look up above Snow White's Scary adventures and you will see the evil witch opening and closing the curtain on the window when looking at you

2. When on the Winnie the Pooh ride in Critter Country and your about to go into the Huffalumps and Woozles room, above the door you will see some of the animal heads from the original Country Bear Jambouree hanging there.

This actually occurs when exiting the Heffalumps & Woozles room and going into the hunny room w/ Pooh.

I can't wait to take pics of the wicked queen. There is magic everywhere at DL.

Look for bathroom signs. They are all different.

Another part of the theming is the trash cans.

A forum about Disneyland trains and you can find some neat stuff there.

I like the trash can pictures! I guess I've been so busy looking at bathroom signs, I didn't notice the trash cans.

This is so cool!!

I found a new one:

In the Sleeping Beauty Castle walk-through, there's a door with a large loop handle. Pull on the handle!

Rub the golden apple at the entrance to Snow White!

There are a couple of hard to find, not on the map, usually empty bathrooms that I got a kick out of locating on my last trip. (I don't know why, I didn't even use them.) I believe we had a thread related to secret bathrooms. Anyone?
Many rides incorporate pieces from discontinued ones. A great resource for the serious Disney nerd is the Unabridged Disney Encyclopedia (or something like that). Anyone else like that book?

There is a book you can buy near the registers in the Emporium, at World of Disney, and I am sure other places that have a list of "Hidden Mickeys" and other fun "hidden" things to find in the park. There is also a website that has photos of many Mickeys, some that are in the book and some not:

My DS 11 got the book while we were there and he has been obsessed ever since. A word of warning, however - once you get good at finding Mickey, you'll be seeing him everywhere...including your bowl of cereal in the morning!

I always enjoy hitting the "33" sign for Club 33 in New Orleans Square and sighing sadly while taking a picture!

People always look at me weird....lol

Im seeing them now!!! Them and the color lime green!!! BTW, do you remember how much the book was at the Emporium?

 

[PinkBudgie]

I got that Hidden Mickey book at Amazon for about $10.

When you are on Peters Pans Flight and you enter the room with Big Ben when your passing around BIg Ben look down to your left and in the very top window of the clock you'll see Mickey Mouses shadow. You have to be quick with this but I have seen it a few times!

In Pinocchio, near the end, by his bed, there's the Blue fairy that "turns into a cloud of sparkles and disappears" - DL official guide. You need to be looking in the 1 o'clock direction right when you enter the room - actually a room

I don't look for hidden mickeys, but when I was there, I happend to notice a cactus plant and it looked like mickey. Is that a coincidence???? Hmmm.

Hey, anything that resembles an oval-shaped stub with two smaller circular extensions protruding from the top could be Mickey!
