    When you see the Mickey Mouse power pole you know you are in mouse country. This power pole is a 105 foot tall power line pylon in front of Osceola Substation. It was completed on February 15, 1996. The rings making up the pylon are so large that they could not travel on the interstate and were made to be constructed on site. The pole was made in Dallas Texas while the steel tubes for the rings were manufactured in Chicago, Illinois but bent by Bend-Tec of Duluth, Minnesota. Obviously the construction was no small undertaking. At night the rings are illuminated by fiver optic cables. You can find the pylon at exit 62 along Interstate 4 on the north side of the highway, at the junction with World Drive and the Central Florida GreeneWay. It is just outside of Celebration, Florida, a master-planned community developed by the Walt Disney Company which is so close to the parks that you can see the Magic Kingdom fireworks. I found out about this local flavor from Atlas Obscura, a great website for the off beat and quirky. It is fun to see the Mickey on your way to and from Celebration. If you do happen to be in the area this time of year head on over to Jeater Bend in Celebration for an awesome display of Christmas Lights because you can never have enough Disney or Christmas light fun in your life.

    Always such a cute little Disney touch coming either to or from Tampa to Disney! Such a fun little surprise every time I drive by it, reminding me that I'm basically living in Walt Disney World! A must-see for all travelers coming through the area that love Disney!

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls! Disney World proudly presents this spectacular "electrical power tower". Lol Free Florida fun.

    What a super neat way to celebrate the end (or beginning) of the Orlando parks area on I-4. Just west of the city on the north side of I-4 and just past exit 62 (you can take the exit and then get back onto the highway). Completely cute and I love it!

    This spot draws attention when passing by and didn't realize it was a place to be checking in until seeing it pop up on a few ck in spots. It's known for the landmark.

    This thing is MicWonderful!! I can still remember the first time I saw it years ago. I just thought it was the coolest thing ever... the best thing since sliced bread!! Unfortunately when you pass it everyday because you live at the exit past it, it very quickly starts to become no big deal. If you're visiting Orlando and haven't seen it before, take that drive down I-4 and have a look-see. Especially if you have kids because they are sure to love it. But tourists, please refrain from slowing down to 5mph and backing up traffic just so you can take a photo of it because us good, hard-working Orlando folk would just like to get home. Thanks in advance :=)

    I just find this a fun little spot to check in. To me, it doesn't really signify Disney World. I mean it does, but for the most part, I'm not going to Disney World. Honestly it signifies to me more traffic jam! Orlando traffic is a bear all the time. It is what it is. After all, everything touristy is here in one spot. It is still nice to see. How special can it be that I can take a day trip to Orlando. That's cool. So many fun touristy spots and foodie spots. One can't get enough!

    Mickey Mouse is a rodent who knows no strangers and crosses every culture barrier on the face of the earth. Mickey represents an enormous amount of creativity to say the least, his never ending popularity has afforded the company to do things that would never make it through the board room of most companies so it's not surprising that the epitome of metal power poles is located right off I-4 for everyone to see delivering 230,000 volts of clean generated energy to Walt Disney World enhancing the experience for millions of visitors every year. Disney Imagineer's provided the design that not only distracts one's view away from the infrastructure just as it does in the park which demands the power requirements similar to that of a city of 300,000, but it's the Reedy Creek Improvement District sole responsibility for paying the cost of providing typical municipal services like power, water, roads, fire protection etc. The cooperation and commitment between the Reedy Creek Improvement District and Walt Disney World Company is as strong today as it was when the District was created in 1967. The result is an example of how a working partnership between business and government can be prosperous for both sides, this is the type of relationship that has allow Walt Disney World to move ahead with its vision to turn 38.5 square miles of largely uninhabited pasture and swamp land, into a global destination resort that welcomes millions of visitors every year.

    Makes for a great halfway point in my daily commute. Easy to spot, and a good gauge of how traffic is moving.

    How come we don't have an "Eye Sore on I-4" Yelp pages too? It's also a beloved Orlando landmark.

    I don't drive that far west on I-4 often, so I still get a kick out of seeing it on drives to Celebration or Tampa.

You're right by water so you can sit out on a patio and chill. Teen heaven. I was told it's pretty much downtown Disney? Parking is interesting and packed but there are free parks and paid parking you choose.

    Welcome to The Landing, the part of Disney Springs that looks like Imagineering dropped an entire…read morecoastal town into Orlando and said, "Here, drink more, shop more, and pretend this lagoon is the ocean." Built on the bones of the late, great Pleasure Island (RIP Adventurers Club, you glorious fever dream), The Landing is Disney's upscale answer to "what if Downtown Disney grew up, bought a blazer, and started ordering craft cocktails instead of yard-long margaritas?" The architecture here is stunning -- faux-seaside warehouses, retro boat docks, and a marina vibe that feels like a stage set designed for your Instagram. Disney says it's themed to "a fictional waterfront town with a rich history." Translation: it's so polished and curated that if you sneezed too hard, the paint might chip off and reveal 1990s Pleasure Island neon underneath. The good stuff? This is where the heavy hitters live: * Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar -- Imagine Indiana Jones had a drinking buddy who hoarded props, then opened a bar. Over-the-top theming, cheeky cocktails, and a guarantee you'll leave saying, "One more round won't hurt." * The Boathouse -- Fancy seafood, retro boats, and those iconic Amphicars that let rich people drive into the water like they're James Bond on vacation. * Wine Bar George -- Proof that wine isn't just for EPCOT festivals. George Miliotes runs a temple of vino here, and yes, you can order a $10 taste or a $300 bottle. Your choice, peasant. * Raglan Road spillover effect -- Sure, technically it's in the "Village" section, but at night the Irish energy oozes over here like Guinness-fueled pixie dust. "Oh, The Landing? You mean the place where Disney charges $18 for a cocktail and you pretend you're classy because the coaster has a backstory?" And he's not wrong. But you know what? It's still one of the most atmospheric, fun, and adult-friendly corners of Disney World. At night, The Landing comes alive with lights reflecting off the water, music in the air, and just enough Disney magic to make you forget you're basically in a mall. It's free to wander, beautiful to look at, and loaded with spots to eat and drink yourself silly. So yes, I miss Pleasure Island. I miss the chaos. But The Landing proves Disney can reinvent without totally killing the vibe. It's polished, it's pricey, and it's perfect.

    I have mixed feelings about ICE! The hard work that the…read moreartists put into carving and decorating is truly mind blowing. I really appreciate everything that they do and the time that it takes. I'm not a fan of waiting in long lines, and this always seems to have a lot of lines and in multiple places. It's really hard to get good photos of your group or the ice because of how many people are walking around. No one seems to be cognizant of others' and it gets frustrating. Not the fault of the ICE! group, but just a comment. I've only done this experience twice in ten years and am fine to keep it that way. Really great idea and beautiful crafting, but a lot of work (parking, lines, people, it's freezing).

I walked in confident and walked out with a new respect for scarves. This year's theme is Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and the ice art is genuinely stunning. Massive, colorful, masterfully carved scenes that make you forget you are standing in what feels like a very festive freezer. The craftsmanship is impressive enough that even while your nose is going numb, you still stop and say wow out loud. The line moved smoothly, which is no small miracle when you are dressed like a penguin and questioning your circulation. Once inside, everything was well run and easy to enjoy. It is a great afternoon experience for all ages. Kids love it. Adults love it. Even Jack Frost would probably nod in approval. Do not skip the hot cocoa afterward. It is not optional. It is survival. That first warm sip feels like your body rebooting. Overall, a solid four stars. If Yelp allowed 4 and a half, this would absolutely earn it. Beautiful, well organized, and cold enough to make you grateful for the Florida sun waiting outside.
