I was 9 years old in November 1971 and the image of the monorail pulling into the hotel was amazing to me. As much as I loved the Magic Kingdom (the only park at the time on property) the hotel was just as exciting. Seems funny now that I think back on it - why would a 9-year-old be so fascinated with the Contemporary Hotel? We celebrated the Thanksgiving weekend at WDW that year - a first for both me and WDW. We had Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant that existed directly under the huge Mary Blair mural (an area that is filled with shops today). I was only at WDW for 3 or 4 days (and since then I've visited probably a dozen times) but that trip in 1971 is forever burned into my memory.Ynothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13710217683542413839noreply@blogger.com
