After our game, we checked out the Navigator to see what we wanted to do. Since it was too cold to go to the pool, we had seen that there was a Behind the Scenes presentation over at the Buena Vista Theater in about 20 minutes.
I really had no idea what to expect of this presentation, and I didnt think it would get very full. WRONG! This place was completely full by the time it got started and I could see why. The presentation was given by Becky Cline, the Walt Disney Archives Director. She has access to all kinds of neat things that have been stored away and not readily available for public viewing. No pictures or video was allowed during the presentation, so Im afraid I have nothing to show. However, I did find one of the weirdest commercials that she showed at the presentation. Its the first ever Walt Disney World commercial, and its very strange and creepy. Im sure some of you have seen this:

She also showed a ton of other ads and commercials that Im not able to find on the internet. Becky also showed us the construction of the Contemporary resort over at WDW, and that each room was a compartment. The room itself was made on the ground and then inserted into the building like a puzzle piece. So neat!
The presentation was about an hour long and was so wonderful and informative. We were so glad we decided to go to it. If you decide to go, make sure you show up early to snag a seat, because I was honestly surprised at how filled it was in there.
