1997: Walt Disney World - Part 1

We made another Christmas-time visit to Disney World in 1997. By this time, many new attractions had been added, including the Legend of the Lion King, Timekeeper, and Alien Encounter at the Magic Kingdom; Innoventions, Honey I Shrunk the Audience, and Food Rocks at Epcot; and Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, and the Hunchback of Notre Dame stage show at Disney-MGM Studios. [Note: A very detailed Christmas 1997 narrative tour, with many more photos, is also available.]
