Get your fried food!

The Friar's Nook in Fantasyland has changed its menu recently to serving fresh potato chips - still a fried treat of course, as approved by Friar Tuck.

Yum!

The tiki gods have been pleased with Pizza and Coca-Cola! Sadly they are no more but for a few years Pizza Oom Mow Mow was a humorous place to grab a slice...

Crystal Arts

Crystal Arts offers a neat look at glass art, the kiln in the shop lets artists create their work right in front of you...

Catch a wave

This view is from the now-historic entry plaza tile murals at the California Adventure. Whether you catch a wave or float through the sky in hot air balloons there is a lot to do on the sunny west coast.

Sausalito Surplus

I'm back! After a few weeks hiatus we're back in action and today we're exploring the alleys of the Streets of America. On the San Francisco side there is a sign for Sausalito Surplus - all things surplus from the Navy. Just look for them by the shipyards.

Rescue Time

When you leave Monsters Inc. be sure to look at the rear of the fascade/set wall...

Laundry Time

Time

Time never really affects Main Street - even the watch shop has a truely timeless feel to it...

Customer Parking Only

Yeung Wo Ginseng Co. is one popular place and in a crowded neighborhood so you better watch that signage for your parking or your car might not be around when you come back to the Streets of America.

Jewelry

Note how the Jewelry store sign looks like it is a piece of Tiffany glass work - just one more subliminal touch of elegance...

Catapult of Doom

Gonzo knows how to entertain and there is no way you'll want to miss his next stunt - the Catapult of Doom!

Dream Builders

"Get a good idea, and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's done, and done right"
For a while there were some really great quotes around the construction walls at the Magic Kingdom, like this one about how to tackle your dreams and make them reality...

Music time

Back to Pizza Oom Mow Mow - this classic woody is stocked with surf boards and jams while on it's way to the beach. If you look it is actually a faux garage door this is painted on...

In Crust We Trust

I couldn't say it better myself! This used to be in Pizza Oom Mow Mow - soon to be reopening in the re-imagined Paradise Pier...

The Castle

These little banners can sometimes be found hanging from the chains and ropes around the Magic Kingdom. Every home needs one, let's see, if they are just attached by Velcro or something like that then...

Right this way

Once again the Muppets find all sorts of ways to get your attention. This sign across from the ABC Commissary was one of my favorites. Sadly it was replaced by billboard style ads for ABC shows. The new signs come no where near the creative level of this one, hopefully it is in storage somewhere and will make a return appearance some day...

As a side note - somehow I've made it to 1,000 posts. Thanks for joining the journey so far!

Survey Marker

Most likely you've seen these around the parks in sidewalks, curbs, and other permanent structures. They are permanent markers for survey crews - this way they know that their location is accurate when they are doing surveys or staking construction sites for, say, improvements to the next big attraction.

Pisces 7

Go and explore the Coral Moons of Pisces 7! This travel ad is just part of the exit queue in Space Mountain...

Standard Transgalatic Delivery

Exported from Earth and containing high levels of taste! These shipping crates are ready to travel the universe with deliveries of Coca-Cola. But you can find them in Tomorrowland while they wait for their next flight...

Tropical waste disposal

The trash and recycling cans around Adventureland are all decorated to fit that tropical theme, they fit in perfect with the local artwork!
