MiceShots began its first feature in April of 2023. Since then, we have been sharing photographic stories that offer a unique perspective on the Disneyland Resort. Today, we are taking a moment to reflect on some of our top ten features from 2023. Join us as we look back at some of our favorite photos.
Flashback to 2023…
A Photographic Journey Through Disneyland’s Alice in Wonderland Ride
This attraction has undergone several major refurbishments over the years, including some amazing enhancements that have given it a much-needed lift. It’s one of our favorites and one of yours too. This was our 10th most popular photo update of the year.

Star Wars: Revenge of the Fifth!
You can’t celebrate May the 4th without acknowledging the Revenge of the 5th! Disneyland has a full land dedicated to Star Wars, an attraction in Tomorrowland, and a special Space Mountain overlay… AND… our 9th most popular photo update of the year.
Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion Materialized
We’ve extensively covered the Haunted Mansion in MiceShots. The attraction has undergone several major refurbishments in recent years and is preparing for another one that may keep the attraction closed until the coming Fall. Nevertheless, if you’re looking to satisfy your Haunted Mansion craving during its extended downtime, our #8 article is perfect for you!
Always Watching: A MiceShots Exploration of Monsters Inc.
If the names Sulley, Mike Wazowski, Roz & Boo make you feel nostalgic, you’ll like our #7 pick of the year. Rumors indicate that the land this attraction is located in may soon become Pandora or Marvel themed… but you’ll always have this photo report to relive the magic…
A Photo Farewell to Splash Mountain
Splash Mountain was a beloved attraction until it closed down to be transformed into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Although some people may still be upset about the change, it was mostly well-received. For those who miss Splash Mountain, we have a special feature that was very popular among our readers.
Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough
Our Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough is ranked #5. However, we feel that not many people are aware of this amazing and underrated attraction. The walkthrough features incredible storytelling, music, and vibrant colors that transport you into the world of the animated feature itself… and gets you out of the sun without a wait.
Discover the Magic of Storybook Land’s Holiday Makeover at Disneyland
The fourth most popular article of the year was our feature on the Storybook Land Canal Boats Holidays Makeover. The article takes you through the whimsical attraction with some added holiday cheer.

Chasing Disneyland Waterfalls
The very first MiceShots feature was called “Chasing Disneyland Waterfalls.” It was a fun article to shoot and the reader response was fantastic. We plan to publish more “area atmosphere” features for the year ahead.
Swashbuckling Photoshoot Through Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean
It’s not surprising that our Pirates feature was the second most popular article of 2023. Guests thoroughly enjoy this leisurely boat ride that takes them into a dimly lit and fully air conditioned fantasy world filled with buccaneers doing lots of silly things.

Second Star to the Right: A Pictorial Tribute to Peter Pan’s Flight
And… our most popular MiceShots features of 2023 was Peter Pan. It’s no surprise this was your favorite as it’s one of our favorites too. This attraction always has long queues, with an average wait time of 45 minutes. Photography can be a bit challenging in this ride, but we’re pleased to know that our readers enjoyed it the most!
