What are some things that you noticed on an attraction after riding several times.

For me on the newest version of SSE I never noticed that the Radio Broadcasters mic says WDI.

I see something new every time I ride PotC. On my last trip, I started trying to spot Hidden Mickeys which offered something new in every ride and every corner of the park.

I think actually every time I go I spot something new almost everywhere. You just have to look for it.

It's been awhile since we were at Disney but I'll notice little things. Like, detailwork, hidden mickeys, mistakes, etc. I have a mind for machinery so I'll start looking for "how does this work?" or what makes it work.

I have made it a point recently to focus my attention away from the main part of the show so I can pick up on the details. Needless to say you start noticing quite a bit when you do that.

Having been to Disney so many times, you'd think I would see some things more quickly. But just the other day on the Safari ride at Animal Kingdom I noticed that the overhead video monitors in line have a segment with an African game warden talking about the destruction of poachers. The game warden's name is Wilson. How many times have I been on this ride (at least 30) and knew that the person communicating to our driver on the radio is Wilson! Interestingly enough, the video segment ends with the game warden (Wilson) taking off in his airplane. Of course, he is in his airplane when he talks to the driver. Again - this should be so obvious, but I never caught it until recently.

Ever since my days working in attractions, I tend to notice the operations kind of stuff, even at attractions I never worked. I'll watch how they load people, look at the control panels, that sort of stuff.

i know 2 little thing in tt 1st in the briefing room before the lines merge on the dry-erase clipboard next to the big TV with the people, there is a hidden Mickey drawn on it. and 2nd on the ride in the tunnel when you pretend to almost crash into a truck i looked at the person in the drivers seat and i noticed it was a life-size cut-out of Walt Disney and they put leis and a straw hat on him, which i thought was really cool

The more recent little details I had never saw before was at Peter Pan's Flight. If you look on the top of the building...they have 2 weather vanes. One is the ship and the other is the crocodile. I had never knew they were there!

It took me several times of riding Soarin' before I noticed the people rock climbing on the left in the hanglider scene.

And on Soar'n don't forget to look for the hidden Mickey on the golf ball as it whizzes at you.

Also, I've seen a lot of stuff never before seen on a first ride by looking behind myself (away from the intended view).

Tommorowland Transit Authority where the woman is getting her hair done. There is an obvious hidden mickey on her belt buckle. Just saw it recently.

The guy in the truck is not a crook. By the way, I have seen a few Easter Eggs on the attractions. First, on the 4th of July scene in Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress, I saw a sign in the background that said "Herbet Ryman -Attorney at Law." Then, Patrick Warburton said that you flight on Soarin' Over California is Flight 5505, referencing the attraction's opening date, May 5, 2005. Last, but not least, I saw tons of props from the World of Motion on the Backstage Studio Tour.

For years and years there is a big thorn missing from one of the scenes on Splash Mountain, it wouldn't be so noticeable if in its place wasn't a huge screw. LOL! MY husband looks for it every year, and every year...big screw.

I've been on the Haunted Mansion many times but it was until our very last trip that I'd ever seen the grim reaper hidden Mickey at the end of the cemetery scene. I didn't even know about it. I was just looking around and, BAM!, there it was. My wife got so mad at me because she knew it was somewhere around there and had been frantically looking for it and I'm the idiot that found it. :ROFLOL:
