Bits & Pieces

Just a few Tid Bits

Below are just some random Bits & Pieces that I have gathered
Some will eventually end up in other projects.
A few are just things I have recorded/photographed while in the parks.
Either way, enjoy these different things.

Have you ever ridden Toy Story Midway Mania and just walked past Mr. Potato Head. Stop sometime and just listen. Occasionally he even makes comments about people in line. It's a lot of fun.
 

Mr. Potato Head - Toy Story Midway Mania

******************************************************

I've got a sinking feeling about this.
A few days ago, in the early morning while in the park,
I was waiting to view the first showing of
Instant Concert: Just Add Water.

I noticed the fountain rig was up in maintenance position.
Two workers were checking it out, and after exiting it
it began its descent into Paradise Bay.

This is what I saw in the first clip below:

 

 

After the rig failed to lower, an announcement was made

canceling the first showing of the show.

 

The workers returned to the rig, fixed something,

and the rig started down into the water again.

 



 

 

After some trouble the rig finally submerged.

 

Good thing too, because I was then able to record the show(s)

which you will get to see next week.

Banded Together in Fun

 

 

This clip is from earlier this summer and features the

All American College Band, and shows just how

much fun being in a band can be.  Enjoy.

Princess Fantasy Faire Road Show

 

 

The Princesses are without a home for a while.

 

While they await the completion of their new home

(Princess Village Faire) just off the Hub, they are holding

court along the Small World Mall.

 



 

So, no storytelling or coronations for the foreseeable future.

 

******************************************************



 

Indy is also out on the road.

 

 

Now that the summer season is over Indiana Jones gets a vacation.

 

At least his attraction will get a refurbishment while he's gone.

 

Expected changes include dusting off the skeletons, reloading the

dart guns, and feeding the snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?

 

 

Indy will return this winter, but I expect the "adventure" will be the same.

Finally.....

 

Watch your step.

 

How often do you look up at things, or off in the distance while in the parks?

How often do you look down? There's more below your feet than just asphalt.

 

Here is a little trivia for you.

This star is below you every time you enter Disneyland.

Where exactly do you think you could find this?

 

Here's another wider shot to help you figure it out.

 

Any ideas?

 



 

Take a guess and find the answer after the jump...

 



Did you guess?

 

 

This star is just inside the main gate, in front of the Mickey floral.
