Disney World opens with crowd sparse for Florida Press Day
The Florida Press Day crowd at Walt Disney World totals about 14 000 as the park nears its grand opening. Two World’s Fair carryovers headline attractions, with It’s a Small World praised for its appeal to children and the Hall of Presidents expanded but uneven in flow. Snow White’s Adventures is a weak link while Haunted Mansion delivers strong shock therapy and Jungle Cruise showcases lifelike animatronics.
