Grassroots.

Leaving the queue of Living with the Land, Sock Monkey learns new ways of growing and cultivating vegetation. Now he’s ready to learn about other ways to live with the Earth. On the upper level of The Land, you can catch a flick with our 3 favorite fellow jungle friends from The Lion King, Simba, Timon, and Pumbaa, and learn about living with the environment in an ecofriendly way. Let’s do our part in the Circle of Life!

Project Tomorrowland.

At the exit of Spaceship Earth you have the Global Neighborhood area which includes Project Tomorrow: Inventing the Wonders of the Future. Here are interactive displays and games you get to play with and learn about the future of medicine, transportation or energy.  And like the end of the ride, we are also coming to an end with photos of Sock Monkey’s adventure in Disney World. But no worries, we’ll continue to keep you entertained with Disney pics till our next trip…through a time machine.

MILF.

What do you get when you put a microphone into the hands of a one eyed green guy in front of a live audience? You get Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor at Magic Kingdom! Introducing Mike Wazowski our Monster of Ceremonies. It’s a blast of energy every time you come to this attraction, and we mean that literally. As seen here, Sock Monkey is in front of the Laugh System Diagram showing Monstropolis’ past method for generating power through screams and tears of the past to the now all cheers, jeers, and laughter of the present. Can we get an LOL!!!

Silhouette.

A profile picture which is an outlined image of a person and featureless interior usually with the silhouette image in black against a lighter background. Sock Monkey sat down for a session of his own. Here he is in Magic Kingdom getting his portrait done by a Disney cast member on Main Street USA. A masterpiece in the making.

Debarkation.

Our journey around It’s a Small World is almost over. We’re in line to disembark and as always, in my experience, there’s a wait to get off. Look Ma, Sock Monkey is walking on water. Ok he’s just anxious to get back on land and is about to swim to the exit. Thank goodness, only three boats ahead of us before it’s our turn. This is only the “happiest cruise that ever sailed!”

Bucket o' parts.

“Mr. Potato Head and a bucket of parts, bucket of fun for everyone.” Remember that jingle. Everyone’s played with a Mr. Potato Head at one point or another in their lifetime. Don’t you wish you could’ve gotten your hand on this giant sized Hasbro toy. Sock Monkey wants to play with this one or maybe even the giant container of Play-Doh. Here he is in front of the Once Upon a Toy store at the Marketplace in Downtown Disney. I wonder how many parts does this Potato Head hold?

Mirror Mirror.

After having been released for 3 weeks, Mirror Mirror is still in the top 10 of box office sales. The movie is not the only thing inspired by the story of Snow White, but as seen here and part of the vanity of the D Street Shop in Downtown Disney West Side, we have a “mirror mirror” of our own. Sock Monkey found a miniature sized magic mirror. He asks “Magic mirror on the shelf who is cuter than an elf?” The magic mirror replies, “Course there’s nothing cuter than yourself.”
