Summary: Description of ToonTown

The Town Square in ToonTown is in front of the City Hall. It has
a Mickey Mouse clock in the clock tower, and there is a gazebo
in front of it. Periodically the horns on the roof sound, and
(what I presume is the official ToonTown tune/toon?) plays,
The Mickey Mouse March, and various characters come out, and
walk down the steps and sign autographs etc. When we were there,
Donald, Darkwing and Pluto came out. This area has tables for
people to sit and eat - there is a walk-up yogurt window, and
a fast food counter there.

This area has a lot of buildings. Most of the signs are funny,
and some have windows that are very funny also. For example,
Scrooge McDuck is the financial counselor.

The Gag shop (or gift shop) is also in this area. It has some
typical souvenirs, and some ToonTown specific ones. It is
well decorated. 

The Firehouse building is one of the first things that you see
when you enter ToonTown. It has one side that has been blown off,
and is scorched, and there are a lot of rockets and other
fireworks there. One of the rockets has been shot through a 
mailbox on the other side of the street. One of the dalmation
puppies (I'm not sure which one) appears in the upstairs window
and barks at regular intervals. 

Downstairs is the post office. Inside, there are post boxes labeled
with the names of various characters: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy,
Roger, Jessica, Donald. Goofy's is upside down. When you push the
button on each box, a recorded message plays. There are several
messages for each character. Jessica is waiting alternately for
some nice, big. male (oops, mail :-)) and for her "honey-bunny",
among other things. The mailbox outside talks when you open it.

There are lots of props around in the streets. Over by the Gag
shop, there are labeled boxes that you can open that make noises
when you do. There is a fallen safe next to a sign which says
"Falling Safe Zone". Other cute signs are the Headless chicken
crossing sign near City Hall, and the "blank" signs near
the gazebo.

The end of ToonTown nearest Small World, is where the Cab ride
will be located. Bennie is outside, up top, having just crashed out
the second story window. Downstairs, there is a Roger shaped hole
in the doors to the cab company. The fountain opposite, has Roger
holding a steering wheel, a bumper and headlights are on the
ground near his feet. Four fish are on top of tires, spraying
water. This fountain is the other stop for the trolley. The
trolley has different size wheels, and rocks back and forth
along the tracks as it goes from one side of ToonTown to another.
They haven't gotten all of the bugs out of this one yet. When we
were riding, it stalled three times, and each time, the cast
members jumped off and started trying to push start it. Now I
know why they have so many people assigned to this ride. :-)


That's about all I can remember for now.
