It was spectacular to see the differences between It's a Small World in Disneyland versus Disney world! The first and most obvious difference is that the facade and the entrance to the boats is all outside. It is also all done in white and gold which is different than the Walt Disney World one which originally had a lot of blue and pink. Another big difference that they added on this 70th anniversary is a new verse that the Sherman Brothers created for the It's a Small World song. It is now the most prominent verse on the ride, and was written at the same time as the original, but for some reason was not included. I think it is the best verse! Another difference between California and Florida is that Disneyland has It's a Small World characters from many of the Disney movies placed in the country where they belong so you have Alice and the white rabbit from england, Aladdin and Jasmine from The Middle east, Ariel in the underwater animal world, Dory and Nemo in australia, Lilo & Stitch from polynesia, and an entire room featuring America and Woody and Jesse from Toy story, Elsa and Anna from norway, Pinocchio from italy, the three Caballeros from mexico, and Simba Timon and Pumba the warthog from the continent of africa. We also received the special keychain that we were supposed to give in at the end of the line to show how long the wait time was. It happens to be a special honor because they believe your trustworthy enough to give it back in. Finally, there was another special secret at the very end of the ride that I had seen on a Disney secrets YouTube video. Supposedly Disney was a fan, I'll be at a rival of Schultz who created Charlie brown, and so at the end of It's a Small World on a postage stamp in one of the goodbye postcards, is a tiny picture of Charlie brown. I vowed to find it and I did!
