I finally noticed the sails behind New Orleans Square that MW'ers talk about. Cool!

Y'all are a bunch of unobservant landlubbers. - iFramedRogerRabbit  1956.2 #36 8:33AM
Lol, how true. - splashphotoCM  880.9 #101 12:24PM
******This is why no one knows where my✨ "Where in the park is this"✨ No one looks up nor down. LOL - MadameLeota  935.8 #93 12:34PM
There were spotlights for a light show before the Fantasmic era and the sails covered the equipment. - Plumiegirl  3322.9 #10 6:18PM
What?! I've never even heard of that! - SSTMClimber  222.2 #1331 7:05PM
I was told from a CM that it represents the ship from POTC. - NikkiMickey  1583.6 #48 8:30AM
I've never seen those either, yay a new secret to look for next time I go!! - blancheneige  214.1 #1427 8:33AM
I love them it's kinda hard to see them but I show everyone I know when we go. - maxinerenton  415.1 #311 7:07PM

Soooo cool! Headed to the parks in a few weeks and I'm goin to look for this! How is this illusion created!? I have never seen it. Does it appear only at certain times? - hitchhikingghost  5.2 #10146 10:07PM
Wow. I need to go to the parks ASAP to see this - UncoolBunny  70.9 #3390 10:27PM
My husband noticed that a long time ago. i would love to know the story behind this :-). - jaysmom  11.5 #6326 10:31PM
I don't know the whole story behind this but I do know that it's supposed to be like you are actually in New Orleans and the edge of the water is back there. The ship is supposed to be docked in the harbor. I'm sure there is a lot more to the story. - caramiapoohAKAface  1448.2 #54 11:41PM
It would be pretty high tide lol - GodOfWine  465.5 #262 11:43PM
From what I've heard it's to create the illusion of a waterway behind the buildings to make it feel like you're in the Port of New Orleans and at the same time they also conceal some light fixtures on the roof. - jediblue  1156.4 #69 11:42PM
Where and what were you standing on to get this picture. Thanks I want one too! - 2ears  160.9 #2142 12:23PM
I never noticed, gonna check it out if I go tomorrow - MickeyMousefanatic  160.4 #2150 11:43PM
That is cool, thanks! I'll have to remember to look for this next time I visit! - DisneylAndy  205.6 #1539 11:46PM
Wow I never noticed! - HollyGolightlyPrincess  385.2 #347 11:48PM
It's kind of creeping me out that I never noticed this. I wonder if it goes along with the mega theme. Thanks for sharing! - BlackCanary86  40.9 #3968 11:58PM
Awesome! Thanks for sharing. - livelovemickey627  83.6 #3229 12:17AM
I've been going for 50 years and I've never seen this (I've known about it forever, but always forget to look when I'm there!). - msdizmaui  518.9 #223 1:26AM
Whoa this is awesome! - ATankNamedFrank  317.3 #534 1:29AM
That's freakin sweet! Thanks for this pic! - BigDaddyGweedo  166.7 #2062 8:13AM
That was on my trivia question this morning.  Ugh. - DisneyVacationLover  274.8 #782 8:20AM
It must have been a windy day to see the sails so large.  I spent our last trip looking for this kind of picture.  Were you standing on something to get this angle?  Would love to know how you took the picture. - 2ears  160.9 #2142 12:21PM
You can see it as you walk over the bridge that goes over the POTC entry. - jediblue  1156.4 #69 2:58PM
My mind has been blown. I had noooo idea that was there HAHAHA!!! - rbeezy  653.6 #160 12:45PM

"What do you see?" "I see clouds... strange clouds..." - Jaytasmic  373.3 #367 6:22PM
