These gorgeous baskets are found near the restrooms and telephones outside Jiko and Boma at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. Handcrafted from old telephone wire, these creations are a beautiful tradition in South Africa, linking the past with a more modern weaving material. With their bold colors and intricate designs, the baskets move away from functional items and become artwork for the walls. The Lodge is full of museum-quality pieces direct from Africa, and these baskets are no exception.
This pattern in the concrete near the entrance plaza to Muppet*Vision 3D takes on the appearance of a famous frill from that green frog we all know and love.

One of The Twilight Zone's most well-known episodes, "Little Girl Lost," is given a nod in the Tower of Terror as you exit the elevator after the ride. Although in this case, the portal to the new dimension is against a brick wall in a service corridor and not under a child's bed, the markings are unmistakeably clear.
Hidden in a store window within a back corner of the China pavilion, this little cricket takes down a note in his nicely furnished birdcage. Perhaps a subtle tribute to Cri-Kee, the tiny typist in Mulan - but it is a wonderful detail nonetheless.
