Happy Thursday! I’m so glad the holidays are over and we can all get back on a regular schedule. Today, I’m bringing you some Disney trivia and focusing just on the Magic Kingdom.
Did you know…
The opening day crowd at Disney’s Magic Kingdom was approximately 10,000 guests. Now, the estimated annual attendance at Disney’s Magic Kingdom is 16.2 million.
Astro Orbiter first opened in Tomorrowland in 1974 as Star Jets.
Cinderella Castle, the centerpiece of Disney’s Magic Kingdom, features 18 towers and 13 gargoyles.
A swinging suspension bridge leads from Tom Sawyer Island to Fort Langhorne, which was named after Samuel Langhorne Clemens (better known as Mark Twain).
The area located just above Cinderella’s Royal Table restaurant was intended to serve as an apartment for the Disney family.
The Main Street, U.S.A. fire station is “Engine Company No. 71″ because the Park opened in 1971.
How about you? Do you have some little known trivia you’d like to share? Until next time, have a magical day!
I would go see Cinderella’s castle. My dream as a kid. Wow that is a lot of people whom go there.
