New Fantasyland!

Its offically open!

The new Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom is up and running! 

Today, December 6th, Ginnifer Goodwin and Jordan Sparks were there with Mickey for the big day!

Ginnifer, from ABC's Once Upon a Time is a fitting guest for the reveal! 

There are many new attractions to see and places to eat! Especially Be Our Guest. 

Belle and the Beast welcome you into their castle to have lunch or dinner- french style!

Ariel also has a place for herself in the new Fantasyland- with her own grotto of course! 

It may not be the cheapest afternoon, but it will definitely be exciting and all new!

On the hunt...

....For hidden Mickeys of course!

Take a stroll around Downtown Disney or any of the properties at Disney and see how many Hidden Mickeys you can find. Hidden Mickeys are partial or complete images of Mickey Mouse that have been hidden by Disney's Imagineers and artists in the designs of Disney attractions, hotels, restaurants, and other areas. You must be sharp-eyed, as these images are designed to blend into their surroundings. The most common Hidden Mickey is a depiction of Mickey's head formed by three intersecting circles, one for his head and two for his round ears. Other Mickeys could be a profile of his face, a side profile of his body or a full-length silhouette of his body from the front.

This link has a fun game to see if you can find the hidden Mickey!

You can buy the book for around $11.95 at any major book stores or even online at Amazon!
