111. Where's Mickey???
One of our favorite FREE things to do at Walt Disney World is search for the illusive Hidden Mickey. Hidden Mickeys are all over the theme parks and resorts. Listen as we discuss how you and your family can get in on the fun. We highly suggest purchasing Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World's Best Kept Secret - https://hiddenmickeyguy.com/buy-the-book/[NOTE: Our dog decided to join in on our recording session. She is a loud snorer. We apologize for her snoring in the background (sounds like heavy breathing). We didn't realize this was being picked up by our microphone until we were editing the video. I tried adding a Noise Gate, but the Noise Gate needed to be so high it made the rest of the recording sound abnormal. SOOOO, we apologize for the background sound, but there was nothing we could do to fix it. Our dog has officially been banned from all future recordings.]
