Hey All! 2 weekends ago I was in Washington DC and while I was there I got to see the 75 Mickey statues that were previously at DCA and other places. They are located in the courtyard outside the Ronald Regan building near the Fedral Triangle metro station. I took some pics...enjoy!

One of my favs...Mickey's dream

The Metro station is right behind this statue

Always my Angel...Mickey

This one is my most favorite!

After the statues were in WDW they went on a little tour around some major cities in the US including Minneapolis, Dallas, Kansas City, Boston, Atlanta and some others. Not ALL 75 went all places though. The website for the "75 InspEARations Tour" is here: http://disney.go.com/inside/mickey75/tour.html
Here are some of my pictures from the Galleria of Eden Prairie-- where they were here in Minnesota. Enjoy.

Tom Cruise's Space Mouse

Raven's. As shown in the Disney 411 promo for the tour. This was played in the Disney Stores and also in WoD at DD. She took 3 days changing her design and "Mickey Mouse is the only mouse I will kiss and hug!". Apparently she's not a fan of Minnie?

Patriotic Mickey

One of my favorites from the tour - my favorite one from the group that came to Minnesota. This was the only one with Minnie and it was her birthday too. Just saying.
