Walt Disney with Mickey and Gang by Castle in Disneyland
Disneyland
"It all Started With a Mouse"
Sleeping Beauty's Castle towers above a colorful array of characters from the wrold of make-believe, led by Walt Disney and his first and foremost star ... Mickey Mouse.
1965.
All the way to the right (you can see the skirt) is a chicken, then an ostrich then a camel and his rider - they are all from the 1965 Christmas parade inside Disneyland, “Fantasy on Parade”.
Then you see Dopey, (behind Dopey is the Mad Hatter's Hat), Goofy, Mickey, Kanga, and Pluto. Behind Walt Disney you can see the character from Pinocchio called Foulfellow. Then there is The Three Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf. Last is Captain Hook and I'm not sure about the rabbit, maybe from Winnie the Pooh or the white rabbit from Alice in Wonderland?

Sea Scouts is an animated cartoon short film in the Donald Duck series. It was released to theaters June 30, 1939.
Donald Duck takes his nephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, to sea in a large schooner. Donald acts as a strict, old fashioned navy captain and is particularly proud of his admiral's uniform and large bicorne hat. However, their problems quickly multiply as the ducks prove to be incompetent at weighing the anchor and hoisting the sail.
Just as things are going completely haywire, a hungry shark appears and nearly eats Donald. Donald leads the shark on a frantic chase just barely escaping death at each turn. Finally the shark causes Donald to ruin his hat. Donald's fury at seeing his hat ruined gives him enough determination to confront the shark, punching him in the nose in a full head on collision effectively knocking the shark out.

The Magic Kingdom celebrated its 25th Anniversary on October 1, 1996 with the largest anniversary confection ever. Cinderella Castle transformed for the occasion and served as the backdrop and most memorable icon of the 12-month gala at Walt Disney World Resort.
Mickey Mouse Dressed in Five Outfits
Walt Disney World
Wherever you go around the world, it's always a Disney adventure! Join Mickey Mouse in a celebration that fills all of Walt Disney World with magic!
unused postcard featuring Mickey Mouse as the Sorcerer's Apprentice, in patriotic cloths, as an explorer, in his 'tux' and as a movie director. I'm thinking maybe this is Magic Kingdom, Epcot (America), Animal Kingdom and MGM or Hollywood Studios.

The Primeval World is a short attraction on the Disneyland Railroad at Disneyland in Anaheim, California and on the Western River Railroad at Tokyo Disneyland in Tokyo, Japan. In Disneyland, it comes immediately after the Grand Canyon between Tomorrowland Station and Main Street Station. In Tokyo Disneyland, it comes just before you arrive back at the Adventureland Station. At the Primeval World, there are many dinosaurs in a supposed natural habitat after traveling back in time.

Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is an African-themed deluxe resort in Walt Disney World, Florida located by the Animal Kingdom Theme Park. It opened on April 16, 2001. It gives guests the opportunity to view grazing wildlife outside their rooms and public areas, giving you the feeling of being in an African savanna.
We stayed here two nights, and Giraffes slept outside of our room both nights. It was pretty spectacular!
