That's a great idea! Here's my trivia question for you to consider. Where was the first wave machine in Walt Disney World?

Yep, it was turned into an artificial reef. It worked, but a little too well, since it eroded the beach at the Polynesian when it was used. Your turn if you've got a trivia question!

While we're waiting, here's another trivia question...What's the oldest ride/attraction in the Magic Kingdom?

Oldest attraction if I am not mistaken is Carousel of Progress....
Here's a question for everyone....In Liberty Square the ground is a particular combination of colors...why is this?

You are mistaken! But we'll get to that after we finish your question...

That's because if you take each color and its corresponding Pantone number, and *then* convert it to binary, it spells out "USA is the best, we love Mickey Mouse" in ASCII...

No, it is not the Tiki Room.

Hmm...the different colors are from minerals from the original 13 colonies?

Still not getting the answer to Liberty Square, and I just remembered the oldest attraction from my Keys to the Kingdom Tour...The carousel was actually built in 1917 if I remember.That is the oldest ACTUAL attraction, while COP is the oldest Disney built attraction.

You are correct, sir! The Regal Carrousel (I wonder why it has two Rs) is the oldest ride/attraction at the Magic Kingdom. The trains are second oldest!

I still have no idea about the different colored ground in Liberty Square. Is it red, white, and blue?
