Grim Grinning - Pumpkins?

These pumpkins can be found outside the Haunted Mansion during the holiday season - just keep an eye out when you are in the queue. Hope you have yours ready for trick or treaters tonight. And don't forget to get extra candy - if you don't give it all away you can eat it yourself!

Another one rides the bus

Here we are, its morning on the Streets of America. There aren't a lot of folks out and about, a cup of coffee here and there. And here I am waiting for by ride from BART. Hmm, should check that schedule, I don't see any buses coming anytime soon. In fact I don't see any traffic. Maybe I should go check and see if the street is closed or the bus is on detour. But that takes effort and it is too early in the morning. Maybe if I wait for a few more minutes...

Source of the Stream

This quiet little fountain sits behind the Cantina de San Angel in the outdoor patio dining. It is a peaceful little corner of the park. The translation is Source of the Stream, though Chorrito has a number of translation, including trickle...

Note the meals by the fountain - enough photos for the moment, I'm going to go eat!

Wipe yer paws

Do dinos have paws? Well either way don't even think about bringing mud into the shopkeeper's area at Chester and Hester's. Note the house number (even though this door is inside the store) and of course the footprints over the doorway...

Desktop: Welcome, foolish mortals...

Doorless chambers? Check. Creaking hinges? Check. Are those strange and frightening sounds that I'm hearing? Or is it just my imagination? Well, better keep moving in the queue I guess. Let's all stay together, please. Your doombuggy is awaiting you...

I found Nemo

In the Hidden-Mickeys-that-aren't-Mickeys category... I found Nemo! Last year when the subs were still under a year old they put Nemo on a lamp near the Matterhorn. It is certainly hidden and while I had heard rumor that they were out there I didn't know where to look for them. I'm not sure if they are still there but keep an eye out!

Tom Morrow 2.0

Paging Mr. Morrow, Mr. Tom Morrow, your party from Saturn has arrived. Please give them a ring... Sorry, that was just too easy.

It's the Road to Tomorrow and Mr. Tom Morrow is there to guide the way around Innoventions. Sadly, I see only a road and no TTA in sight on this road of the future...

Actually, this little guy is Tom 2.0. I would assume that makes Tom Morrow at the Disneyland Innoventions Tom 1.0. Of course, Tom Morrow from the old Rocket to the Moon was the first (and so far, only human) Tom Morrow. While Rocket to the Moon has been gone for over four decades, Mr. Morrow has been made famous in the TTA
spiel. You just have to wonder if he ever did hook up with his party from Saturn...

Hollywood Gossiper

The press is everything in Hollywood (come on, you're nobody if you're not in the papers) and the food world (the world doesn't know you exist until the reviews come out) and outside of Award Wieners is a glowing review cut out and hung in the window for all to read. So take a read and get in line - or better yet just get the dog and then read while you are enjoying your tasty meal.

Fly East Africa Air

When you fly East Africa Air you'll be flying safely and comfortably. This sticker is stuck on a hippo supply shipping container on the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail. While you are looking at the hippos be sure to look around a bit and take in all the surroundings, there are lots of details in the monitoring area.

No pepper games

It's the World Series time! And the sign in Studio 1 trying to ban pepper games certainly fits. Well, the Muppets interpreted it a bit differently than how it normally is interpreted in the ballpark...
