Disney Details: Lion King

Deep in the Jungle Cruise, the natives are big fans of the Lion King. What else could explain this ancient painting?

Disney Details: Matterhorn Operators

Did you know that if you look up at the operation booth once you have boarded the Matterhorn, you might see some familiar (and sometimes not Disney-related) characters?
Plushes and figurines get moved around from time to time, but this season I spotted a big Bumble! 

(Probably a distant relative of the Matterhorn's resident Yetti)

Disney Details: Coke Lightbulb

One of the many reasons I love Disney parks is their attention to detail. This little lightbulb is outside the Coke shop on Main Street. I just love how they wouldn't break the pattern and made this bulb half and half!

Hidden Mickey Monday!

This is one of the many ever-changing, ever-moving hanging Mickey topiaries. Sometimes they can be found on Main Street or along the Downtown Disney District. Although they are a bit obvious, I love the extra work done to make them into Mickeys.

Disneylandscaping: Tomorrowland

Did you know that most of the plants grown in Tomorrowland are actually edible? 

Varieties include fruit trees, cabbages, chilies, herbs, and more.

Disney Secrets: Finding Nemo, literally!

Today's Disney Secret can be found in the Smoking Area between Mattahorn Mountain and Nemo's Submarine Voyage.

One day while searching the area for Hidden Mickeys, I was shocked to find this little Nemo, just about to blend in with the surrounding plants. Cast Members explained that little Nemo markers were originally placed for the extended lines on the grand opening of Nemo's Submarine Voyage, and only a few remain as permanent hidden Nemos. 

Disney Secrets: Evil Queen

Today's Disney Secret can be found in Fantasyland, above Snow White's Scary Adventure.

 Did you know that every few minutes, the Evil Queen draws back the curtains from her window and spies down at the people in Fantasyland? Just like in the movie when she sees Snow White with Prince Charming! This is an easy detail to miss since she is up so high and only peeks out for a few seconds.
