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.

Really! I'm starting that diet! I plan to eat my whole cruise cost in meals on board! :D
 
I would've thought that the vanilla would be the most popular flavor!!
