Has anyone looked at Google Earth lately?

Disney world on Google earth is amazing! DH has spent an embarrassing amount of time looking at it today. A lot of the details are modeled out now and it helps satisfy that disney longing.

Did you know you can see a really cool "hidden mickey" on Google Earth right near DW??? Its in the northwest of the MK....near Trout Lake. :)

Never thought about that going to go check it out!
Just saw the hidden mickey!!!

That's a great hidden mickey!

For those that had a little trouble finding him (like me), you can just go to google maps and plug in the coordinates: 28.452038,-81.703026

Enjoy!

There's another one west of Trout Lake & north of Dixie Lake. It looks like a small lake.:mickey:

I am glad that someone else spends crazy time looking at WDW on Google Earth! I also enjoy looking at all the other Disney parks around the world:thumbsup:

Yes! love the 3D WDW on Google Earth!

[Zawadi]

WOW! Still got to wait until December when we can see it for real again.

[Disney Doll]

Oh yeah, even our 3 yr old is addicted. He's always asking to "check out the world."

I love that you can see the behind the scenes areas and get a real feel for how everything is laid out. Like just beyond the trees in Jungle Cruise there's a backstage area that looks very industrial. Everything is so well hidden when you are there in person.

This was my thought! I love to pass slow parts of the day by looking at google maps, but am astonished at how close you are to things at times. (like when I noticed when staying at the 80s/90s area of Pop you can see the "welcome to wdw" sign) Also, I noticed just yesterday that one time I took a wrong turn and ended up in a Fire/Emergency station or call center. Didn't know I was just a few hundred yards from the WS!

Small world...lol

[Mousemates]

yeah...google earth is super cool for those areas like WDW where the you get the 3-D effect and the super high resolutions.

[BelleKP]

Love it here too! Recently I've been spending a lot of time looking at MK and the work going on in Fantasyland! Very cool to see.
:mickey:

I just wish I could pull the little guy on the side down and walk through the parks.

[Zawadi]

Just been flying around World Showcase and stopped at Italy. Was surprised to see that Via Napoli was missing. I was looking forward to one of their pizzas this December.

[Hull-onian]

Wow!!! That was great....It was a perfect Mickey:thumbsup:

DH does this all the time. He likes to look at the behind scenes things and how big the parks actually are. When I think he is working, I will go into his office and he is looking at WDW on Google Earth. LOL
