Walt Disney World folks … older guide maps mention being able to get a cassette player and audio tour of the park for sight impaired guests. Anyone have the audio to share? #wdw

I renovated our bathroom today. It had a leaky faucet, totally inappropriate for 2025. I did it in non-leaking. Now it is NEW and doesn’t leak which is very appropriate for the time of ME. it might even have the original drain plug! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Love this transportation guide inside the 1976 Walt Disney World guide book map. To get from the TTC to the Contemporary, don’t take the monorail. Best way is motor coach!

New Walt Disney World guide maps are wild. Big green space where the riverboat used to be, obviously, but train tracks only heading toward Tomorrowland. Everything looks off balance.
