This week on the Disney Parks Blog, our readers were treated to a bevvy of “it’s a small world” content in honor of the upcoming 50th anniversary of the attraction. Many Disney Parks Blog authors shared stories, historic images and videos created especially for this celebration – be sure to check out Erin’s post for some fun trivia and history that surrounds this attraction.
Here at the Walt Disney World Resort, our coverage of the construction of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train kicked into high gear with two updates in our “All in the Details” series. Jennifer shared a look at changing terrain of the attraction, which features rocky cliffs, lush trees, and fields of flowers. Another update focused solely on the “big drop” in the attraction.
