3x hidden Mickeys.

Character “meet and greets,” photo opportunities and other such encounters seem like cornerstone elements to a Disney experience. If you hunt down pictures of the first characters to appear in Disneyland in 1955, you might think that they were an after thought. There’s a long story on the first Mickey and Minnie guests could meet in person, of which I don't have room to recount here.

Penny is from The Rescuers. John, Wendy and Michael are the Darling children form Peter Pan. They are dressed as I though English children would wear in the daytime - which is a combination of Christopher Robin’s clothes and those of the Bank’s children from Mary Poppins. Boo is from Monsters, Inc.
