Originally Posted By FerretAfros I think a couple of the 50th Mickeys are gone, but I'm not sure which ones. There is also no longer the rededication ceremony every day on the steps of the Main Street Station. If there are any other things that are gone, they are probably fairly minor.
Originally Posted By guerillagorilla As long as the "Wishes" fireworks will still happen through to the end of the month, I'm fine with some minor 50th touches being gone. I'll be going on Friday the 22nd.

Originally Posted By Mickeys Gal The travel company was sorta right. After the christmas stuff goes away next January they will bring back the fireworks and parade of dreams. They both tie in with the next promotion "Year of a Million Dreams". They will just rework the wording so the narration doesnt say "50th" anymore.

Except for maybe the Matterhorn all the eastside 50th mickey's are still there I didn't notice any collages gone, but i did notice that the signs explaining the collages along Small World Mall are gone. The only golden vehicles i didn't see where the dumbo and storybook boat. I didn't go on the Jungle Cruise, so i don't know if the golden boat is there It is kind of wierd seeing disneyland being stripped of all this.
Originally Posted By Travaria I'm actually pretty disappointed that they're getting rid of the collages. For the most part I thought that the collages really added to the magic. I'll be sad to see them go.
