Take that!

Buzz and Woody can be seen around Toy Story Mania is pictures drawn by Andy. Here we have Buzz blasting what would appear to be either Godzilla or maybe a version of the Swamp Thing, it is a little hard to tell...

the song that will be in your head all day

it's a small world! Yes, now that the song is in your head let's take a look at the entrance signage. The 3-D sign stand out over the walkway. The castle wall fascade, the feel of a medevil fair, they all fit in to the general Fantasyland feel...

Welcome to the future

The relatively new stainless steel gates at Epcot picked up a nice feature for the 25th Anniversary, the classic Epcot and Spaceship Earth logos!

Hippo pool recording

The Serengeti hippo project is working on the sound recordings right now... The stickers on the travel cases are always an enjoyable read...

Fargo's Palm Parlor

Fargo's Palm Parlor can be found on Main Street. Sadly you can't get your future told there, but at least there is a cool sign out front.

Blast zone

Watch out for the blast zone in Condor Flats. But rather than being scorched by hot gases how does cool mist sound? With a lack of shade in much of DCA it is a welcome retreat on those toasty days!

Meet me at the fountain

The Tower Hotel's secondary lobby has this fountain near the dining and meeting rooms...

Travel with the Toons by Train

The Toontown Fair train station is, unlike the other two Magic Kingdom stations, a simple structure. The most ornate pieces are the oversized signs and blue ribbons.

Desktop: Greeting from California

Everything under the sun! Or the moon in this case... A bit of neon light for the desktop this week as we look at the soon to be replaced entry plaza at DCA...

Worldly refuse collection

In much of the World Showcase the trash cans look the same, esp. along the promenade. With a subtle brown tone and the compass logo in a metal casting they blend into the surroundings...

Pangani Forest Exploration Trail

Don't forget to read the notices before you go on your trek!

Serving a Thirsty Galaxy

Look for the TWA Moonliner in Tomorrowland for a thirst quenching stop. The scale replica of the Disneyland orignal is a nice homage to the earlier Tomorrowland landmark, but it won't get you to the moon or Mars anymore...

3D film vault

The vault is bulging with all sorts of film reels in a way only the Muppets can do...

Ants in the Pants

One of the many classic games turned into oversized props in Toy Story Mania, this time at the boarding platform.

Village Fry Shop

The Village Fry Shop has since changed names and menus but here is a brief look at your Fantasyland fry outlet...

Souk-al-Magreb

The promenade has a quaint shop, the Souk-Al-Magreb, bearing gifts from around Morocco. And if you look up you'll find all sorts of rugs and pots as well...

Will call...for balloons

This resurgance in Mickey balloon popularity has been fun for all those who love the classic balloons (that includes me). It appears the Tree of Life has been turned into a balloon in some of the banners and signs around the Animal Kingdom.

Maseca

Mission Tortillas use genuine Maseca Corn Flour, the company (now owned by Gruma) was the pioneer of mass production corn flour in 1949...

Some "tiny" improvements

Recently the construction walls at the parks have begun sporting some interesting new signs. This one was on the Storybook Land with a rather humorous message for its riders through the miniature realm...

Harbor your Hunger

Catalina Eddie's is one of the Sunset Market Ranch eateries and despite the logo they don't serve seafood. I would certainly try the Hot Italian Deli sandwich, it is delicious! And those from Southern California will already know this - but a Catalina Eddy is a localized weather pattern on the coast...

Parlour Tricks

Madame Leota's cart outside of the Haunted Mansion is a fun addition to the streetscape. Part shop, part odd visual, it spices up that corner of Liberty Square. Though I've still never found any good parlour tricks at the cart. Hmmm....

Desktop: River Excursions

Hitch a ride on the S.S. Mark Twain and take off on a grand river excursion with this week's desktop!

Trash of the future

Future World's trash and recycling cans are subtley painted to fit in with the surroundings. No logo, nothing special other than the Prototype font on the recycling...

Ride in comfortable safari vehciles...

...as you enjoy all the sights and sounds of the Harambe Wildlife Reserve. It's a journey of a lifetime, so keep an eye out for these posters for all the details.

Cristal d'Orleans

This fancy goblet marks the entrace to address 32 in New Orleans Square - the Cristal d'Orleans shop...

Drop your debris

The trash and recycling cans around Condor Flats relfect the industrial air field feel of the land.

Tower Hotel Gifts

The back entrance to the Tower Hotel Gift shop doesn't get seen by nearly as many people for the simple reason that you are exiting the hotel after your stay. But if you need to go back to pick up a gift or your party was waiting for you at the exit they'll see this sign over the door.

Eat at the Harbour House

There are a variety of signs around the detail-crazy Harbour House, this is just one of the many to find around the building...

Desktop: Village Haus

Do you need to feel like you are on a trip to the Alps while sitting at work? Or maybe you just want to feel like you are wandering around Fantasyland without the crowds? Either way, this week's desktop takes us to Pinocchio's Village Haus...
