WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!


Congratulations to DisneySharon !!!


Jenster was so close too but DisneySharon gave the most specific answer - the picture shows the bridge at Pleasure Island, Downtown Disney - it's the one at West Side right next to the Planet Hollywood restaurant.


Mickey has already made his travel plans, as you can see in the picture.


Thanks so much to everybody who entered the competition - maybe you will be the winner next time!! And a special thanks to Jenster who came so close.


This is Froopan, signing off.......


See Ya!

Here it is - the tiebreaker!


This is it then - only DisneySharon and Jenster to answer on this one, and please use this form to send us your guess.
Only one guess is allowed each, be specific! and we'll let you know who's won the gold medal as soon as you have both sent your guess!
Good Luck!

It's a tie!

Congratulations to DisneySharon and Jenster - we looked at the first person each day to get a full, specific answer and you both won three days each.

We need a tiebreaker now, but more of that below.

Here's the answers:

3rd August - MuppetVision
4th - Epcot World Showcase, UK - outside the restrooms
5th - Sports room in Mickey's house, Magic Kingdom
6th - Entrance to RainForest Cafe, Downtown Disney
7th - Islands of Adventure, just inside the entrance, the shop on the right near the drinks stall
8th - Animal Kingom, on the bridge on the way to Kilimanjaro Safari
9th - Kennedy Space Center, next to the Saturn V rocket
10th - Liberty Square, Magic Kingdom
11th - Epcot, Test Track post-ride area
12th - Tower of Terror pre show, the table right below the TV!
13th - Raglan Road, Pleasure Island
14th - Sky Tower, Seaworld
15th - Liberty Square, Magic Kingdom
16th - Raglan Road, Pleasure Island


So we need to pick a winner - there will be one final picture tomorrow, if DisneySharon and Jenster would like to email their guess to us using the contact form here we will pick the winner. This way you can't see each other's guesses!!

There is no urgent time limit on this - if you are not able to guess for a couple of days that is no problem - but it would be nice if we could have a winner by the weekend so we can get Mickey parcelled up and sent off to you!

See you tomorrow!

Froopdate!

Thanks to everybody who has joined in with the guessing - we'll be announcing the winner over the next couple of days.

But before we do, would you be interested to know that the picture for Friday 15th August was not taken at Epcot......

Whoever gets that one right will be in a very strong position!!

Keep checking back to find out who's won,

Our last night - here's the final picture


Here we are – the last night of our trip and a lovely glass of cola to share. I think it was cola - it tasted a bit funny, but the more we had the more we enjoyed it.
There was music playing too which was great – there were four people in the band when they started but there were eight by the end of the night! Maybe it was the cola…

Anyway, if you know where this is add your comments below.

This is the final picture, the winner will be announced over the next couple of days so keep checking back – there is still time to look through the pictures and make sure you have the most accurate answer. Froopan’s decision is final, and I promise I’ll be as fair as I can.

For the last time this year… GOOD LUCK!

Only one more day after this....



Helloooooo!

This was us earlier, visiting the Historical Research Center.... but where is it?!

I'm doing my coy sideways-glance at the camera here, my left side is definitely my best.

I've heard that there have been some excellent guesses over the past 24 hours, and there are now some correct answers for the pics that nobody had guessed. Well done, whoever you are!

Tonight is our last night, so we're visiting a 'special place' - the final picture should be on early tomorrow morning so give it your best shot.

See ya!

So how's it going??

Well there have been some great guesses and many of the pictures have been correctly identified, but - surprisingly - there are some pictures which haven't been guessed yet!!

Have a look back through the pics and the guesses and you might spot them.

Here's a tip - when we pick the winner, we'll be looking for the person who has guessed most pictures correctly, and most accurately. So you need to make sure you have a guess on every picture, even if you think someone else has already got it right, and if you can be more specific than them, then go for it!

Nobody is even close on picture number 4 (there is a BIG clue in the picture - think of big things...) and there isn't a specific answer yet for Thursday, 7th August - couple are close but not quite right.

Only a couple of days to go now!

Well I'm not sure this quite worked out...


I wasn't sure from the start. The 'responsible' adult who takes the pictures suggested that we pose in the window and you would be able to see us from the outside.
I've studied this picture very closely and it might as well be Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes behind the glass. Anyway, I suppose it's not that important - what matters is whether you know where this was taken. Add your comments below, good luck as usual,
See ya'

Not many more days to go...


Hi y'all!
This picture was actually taken last night, we were a little bit 'tired and emotional' so we stopped here for a sit down.
Think the chap was asleep - he didn't move at all while we were sat on his arm. To be honest he felt a bit cold... hope he was alright.
As usual Mickey stared right at the camera (typical movie star) but I was people-watching, I can't stop myself.
Only a couple of days to go now so every guess counts - do you know where this is??
See ya' tomorrow

Tuesday's Picture


Hi everybody!
Here's today's picture - bit dusty this place, needs a tidy I reckon.
I'll be impressed if you get this one - I've been to this place many, many times before (bet you have too) but I've never noticed the bottles on the table.
Anyway, over to you now - add your comments and we'll see who gets it!
See ya

Helloooo!



Here's today's picture - do you know where this is?

Sorry we look a bit too bright on here - the flash was really strong anyway, then it reflected off Mickey's 'Year of a Million Dreams' metallic boots and that just made things even worse. It was so strong his ear's bent backwards again.

Anyway, if you know where this is, add your comments below and Mickey could be yours (if you do win him, watch out for the glare from those boots...)

See ya' tomorrow!

So how is everybody doing so far...???

Well, as at 17:50 (BST) on Sunday, the following pictures have not been guessed correctly:

Wednesday 6th - it's not Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios or Epcot...

Thursday 7th - it's not Magic Kingdom or Animal Kingdom

Saturday 9th - it's not Epcot

Sunday 10th (although that's only just been published)

So there's plenty to play for - come on, have another look!

Sunday's Picture



Hi everybody - here we are again, in another new location.

This was a good spot to watch everything going on, we had a good time here.

But do you know where we are in the picture? - add your comments below!

Busy Day Today!


The weather's been a bit mixed over the last couple of days but we spent a lot on time indoors today so it wasn't too bad.
This picture shows us balancing on a handrail - sorry I'm not looking at the camera but I was worried that Mickey may fall off. That wonky ear may be affecting his balance, it's time we took the tag off.
Do you know where this is? Add your comments below...

Friday, 8 August 2008

We've had a thunderstorm today...


... but it was dry when this picture was taken. I think you will probably get this one, but it might make you re-think some of the earlier pictures.
By the way, we made sure you can see Mickey's right ear on this one!
Good luck...

Thursday, 7 August 2008

Here's Thursday's picture


Here we are again, relaxing at the side of a huge green thing.
I've heard that some people are worried about Mickey's 'missing' right ear - don't worry it's still there, it's just pulled down a bit by the tag from the shop. (If you win him, you get the chance to remove the tag!).
Good luck for this one & see you tomorrow.

It's Picture Number 4!


How you doing so far?
Here's today's picture, this should keep you guessing for a while.
There's a big clue in this one if you look very closely...

Tuesday, 5 August 2008

OK, where's this?


Another hot day here today, we've spent most of the day trying to find somewhere cool for a sit down.
Like in this picture.
But where are we??
Add your comments below...
Remember the winner at the end of the two weeks gets to keep my friend Mickey!

Monday, 4 August 2008

Meet my friend - he could soon be yours!


Here's picture number 2, and I'd like to introduce my new friend - Year of a Million Dreams Mickey!

Mickey will be accompanying me wherever I go on this holiday, and whoever guesses the most locations correctly will win him when we get back.
Don't forget, I will be taking into account who gets the correct answer first each day, but also who gives the most precise answer - where exactly was I when each picure was taken??
My decision will be final!
Good luck,
Froopan
