I just rec'd the Little Big Book of Disney for my b'day (fun book!) and there is a page of DCL fun facts that I thought I would share. DCL die hards probably already know all this, but...:)

On any given day aboard the Magic or Wonder -


500,000 gal. of fresh water are distilled from sea water
280 tons of water drain from the AC system, 220 tons of which are recycled to operate laundry facilities
8,260 cups of coffee are served
1,850 telephones are available for phoning home
diesel storage tanks hold up to 20,000 gal of fuel
up to 1.365 megawatts of energy are used to power the ship
cooks scramble, beat, fry, bake and hard-boil 5,404 eggs
159 quarts of frying oil sizzle on kitchen griddles
30 gallons of chocolate ice cream are consumed
5,390 pillows cushion sleepy sailors

Can't wait until we get to enjoy our share of those eggs and drink our share of all that coffee on our June cruise :D

At least some of those facts are shown along the wall outside the children's clubs on deck 5, I remember reading the ones about the water and the pillows.

I would've thought that the vanilla would be the most popular flavor!!
