"it's a small world" Disney & Pixar Characters
-
Peter Pan & Tinker Bell

Abu
Salaam! Popping in and out of a large urn, Abu can be found coveting a large gem. Didn't Aladdin say not to touch anything? Anyways, Abu can be found on the left, just as the boats enter the "it's a small world" representation of the Middle East & Indian Subcontinent.

Aladdin & Jasmine

Ariel & Flounder

Dude! Are Marlin & Dory still working on Finding Nemo? Anyways, they must be surfing the EAC that runs past Australia & New Zealand in the "it's a small world" South Pacific Seas.
Note: After some exhaustive research (and arguing), we guessed that this clownfish was Marlin - because his right fin seems a little too large to be Nemo's. Although, Nemo could have grown a little since we last saw him.
-
