Walt Disney World Little Known Facts About Well Known Places series

Book Description:
In the followup to the Disneyland edition, now comes the brand new Walt Disney World edition filled with interesting facts and tidbits. A worthy little book to add to your collection. Walt Disney World employs more than 62,000 people, including at least 58,000 cast members. That's more than twice the number of employees at the Pentagon (23,000), one of the world's largest office complexes. WDW is, in fact, the largest single-site employer in the United States. Disney's effort to be "green" includes the production of more than 30 tons of fruit and vegetables per year, which are grown at the Land pavilion at Epcot. Victoria & Albert's at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort is the only AAA five-diamond restaurant in Central Florida and has been recognized with an Award of Excellence by Wine Spectator as well. Approximately 1,100 audio-animatronic figures inhabit the Magic Kingdom alone, and about 2,000 populate the four theme parks in total. Typhoon Lagoon's Crush n' Gusher is the only water roller coaster in North America that has three unique and separate rides you can experience from one tower. The animals in Animal Kingdom's Africa are "tucked in" every night in Disney's Night Houses, each specifically designed by experts to suit the species it hosts
