Announcement: The First Ever Generation Mouse Live Show will be 8pm EST on February 12 at Magic247live.com! This week we decided to try a new segment called The Wonder Years. We got the idea from WDW News Today’s Golden Age segment, where after two years they figured out what they thought was the Golden Age of Walt Disney World. We thought it would be interesting to take this concept and look at it from a young adult perspective and see what we think was the “Wonder Year” of WDW. This week we decided to take a look at Adventureland:1971:Attractions:Swiss Family Treehouse (B Ticket)Safari Club ArcadeJungle Cruise (E Ticket)Tropical Serenade (E Ticket)Dining/SnacksThe Adventureland VerandaVeranda Juice BarThe Sunshine Tree Terrace ShopsAdventureland BazaarTiki Tropic ShopThe Magic CarpetOriental Imports, Ltd.Tropic ToppersTraders of Timbuktu1972:Colonel Hathi's Safari Club opens1973:Pirates of the Caribbean openedSafari Club Arcade is replaced with Caribbean Arcade1981: Veranda Juice Bar closes 1987: The Magic Carpet closes and is absorbed by The Elephant’s TrunkOriental Imports Ltd.
