Awesome facts

I'm leaving in 19 days for our first ten day trip. So of course I have been browsing the web of Disney stuff, while I was doing this I ran acros some facts I thought you guyd would enjoy .....

Gone But Not Forgotten . . . Walt Disney World Lost and Found is a busy place. Every day an average of 100 pairs of sunglasses are turned in at the Magic Kingdom alone. There have been enough “shades” submitted each year in the Vacation Kingdom to outfit every resident of Sun City, Ariz.; Sun City, Calif.; and Sun City, Fla. Since 1971, an estimated 1.5 million pairs of glasses have been found.

Ready, Aim . . . The fountain at Epcot Innoventions Plaza can shoot water 150 feet in the air -- within 30 feet of the top of Spaceship Earth. If all of the shooters were fired at once, there would be 2,000 gallons of water in the air.

Tennis Anyone? . . . It would take nearly 9.5 million tennis balls to fill one of the tennis ball cans at Center Court Hotel in Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort. That’s enough to stretch from Walt Disney World to Key West.

And my favorite ...
Room Roulette . . . If you wanted to stay in all the guest rooms in all of the hotels and resorts currently open on Walt Disney World property (at a rate of one per night), it would take more than 61 years.

here's the link if you want to check out the rest of them!
