Reality is not Matching my Guidebook!
Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2010 5:55 pm
I had a Guest leave their WDW Guidebook in my shop today.
Good guidebook, The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World, a pretty popular title among Guests. There was one little problem...it was the 1987 version.
I flipped through it a little bit before putting it with the other Lost and Found. Among the many tips and tricks that this Guest likely arrived here expecting to be able to use....
*Cigarettes are readily available in Gift Shops throughout the Magic Kingdom (now Magic Kingdom Park) and EPCOT Center (now Epcot).
*Mr. Toad's Wild Ride is a "disappointing" Amusement Park spookhouse located in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom (no longer the case in Florida).
*The WorldKey System allows Guests to access information about EPCOT Center and communicate with a Cast Member to personalize their visit (no longer exists).
*Le Cellier in the Canadian Pavillion inside World Showcase at EPCOT Center is a Cafeteria-style restaurant that is one of the few non "Fast Food" restaurants to not require reservations (LMAO!).
Hopefully, they realise how hopelessly outdated their guide was, and that's why they decided to lose it
