Do you remember where in the Magic Kingdom you could find Ariel before the New Fantasyland opened?
In Ariel’s Grotto, of course. Located next to Pinocchio’s Village Haus, this meet and greet area opened in October 1996. This photo is from 2001.

Ariel’s Grotto closed in April 2010 to make way for the new Fantasyland Expansion of Ariel’s new home 🙂 to the right of Under the Sea – the Journey of the Little Mermaid!
