CHARACTER MAGIC :
Tinker Bell
The logo for Walt Disney Pictures used in title cards until 2006 was of Disneyland ’ s castle , but has since been replaced with a hybrid image combining elements from both Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella Castle .
BUILD IT LONGER ! There ’ s nothing more magical than gliding up to a Disney Park on a monorail .
Upon its debut in 1959 , the Disneyland Monorail became the first monorail system in the Western Hemisphere , but its single-loop — 2.5 miles of track and two stations ( at the Disneyland Hotel and inside the park in Tomorrowland )— make it seem like a novelty compared to the serious transportation system of the Walt Disney World Monorail , which boasts three loops , six stations , and 14.7 miles of track .

WHERE TO MEET TINKER BELL : Tinker Bell is flitting about Pixie Hollow in Town Square Theater on Main Street , U . S . A in the Magic Kingdom .
WHEN VISITING TINK : Magic is all around you . As you make your way down the dark hallway on the journey to Pixie Hollow , you ’ ll even encounter a magical , winding trail of sparkling pixie dust .
NOT SURE WHAT TO SAY ? Oversized flowers , a giant thimble , teacup , and even a strand of pearls are just a few of Tink ’ s treasures . Ask about her favorites or the latest new book in her library .
MAKE SURE TO : Wear Tink ’ s favorite color , green . A green shirt or dress may get Tink to exclaim , “ Oh my jingles !”
BEYOND THE AUTOGRAPH BOOK : Tink loves to read , so books make an “ oh my jingle ” -worthy autograph item . Get creative with a big key , thimble , or fake flower . Try a Tink doll or holiday ornaments for a memory worth displaying .
FUN FACT : Next time you ’ re going 30 mph in the car , just think : Tink soars this fast almost 190 feet in the air over the crowds in Magic Kingdom during the nighttime spectacular . That ’ s one tough fairy .
