[Disney Quiz] Quizzes about Disney’s history and theme parks

Daisy Duck

Donald Duck’s longtime girlfriend is Daisy Duck. She is a duck-themed character, distinguished by a large pink bow on the top of her head. Minnie Mouse is Mickey Mouse’s girlfriend, and Clarabelle Cow is another Disney character.

Johnny Depp

The portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow as he appears in the films is recreated realistically within the attraction. It’s well known that the movie originated from the attraction, and later, popular characters from the film were added back into the ride. If you look for them as you ride, you’ll enjoy it in a different way than usual.

47 ships

The ships that appear in Caribbean names share something in common: each one bears a woman’s name. In Japan, names like “〇〇-maru” are common, but in the UK and France there has been a tradition of giving ships women’s names to pray for safe voyages. In times when crews were predominantly male, a woman’s name may have served as a kind of guardian spirit. If you look at the bow of a ship, you’ll see its name written there—be sure to look for it.

The town where Walt Disney grew up

World Bazaar, the gateway to Disneyland. Its buildings and arcades, reminiscent of small-town America in the late 19th to early 20th century, are rooted in the landscapes of his boyhood. The model is Marceline, where Walt spent his early childhood. The warm, inviting streetscape is imbued with the founder’s memories and dreams.

bank

There’s a backstory that it used to be “Sugarman Bank,” and you can see traces of that in the interior and decor. The checkout counter evokes a bank teller window, and the wall features a night-deposit box for accepting deposits outside of banking hours. It’s an old-fashioned system that was in use before ATMs became widespread. It’s fun to let your mind wander to that history while choosing some sweet treats.

The bears’ dressing room

Each door has a nameplate and serves as a dressing room for the performing bears. It really makes you feel like there’s a real backstage to the show. By the way, some bears don’t have dressing rooms. The popular Liver Lips McGrow is assigned elsewhere to manage waiting fans, and Wendell is a wanderer who tends to wander off, so he doesn’t have a fixed dressing room. These kinds of small stories make the world all the more delightful.

Chinkapin Hill

Splash Mountain was originally called Chick-A-Pin Hill. However, due to a certain event, it was renamed to its current title. In the story, a dam in the area collapses after an explosion caused by Raccoon Raccety, triggering a massive flood. The hill, now awash with water, came to be called “Splash Mountain,” conveying the idea of a “mountain of splashes.”
