Tiana watch: Magic Kingdom ride goes green, stays dry
The Orland Magic Youth Foundation supports arts, educations, health and homelessness programs. It has distributed more than $28 million to nonprofit community organizations.
The Cinderella Castle suite was created out of unused space in the castle several years ago. In 2007, a castle sleepover was part of Disney’s Year of a Million Dreams promotion randomly awarded to Disney World visitors. For the most part, the accommodations have been out of circulation since then, though reports surface of A-listers staying in the suite, which is four stories above ground level of Magic Kingdom.
The suite is designed in the style of a 17th-century chateau. It has with stained-glass windows, a limestone fireplace topped with a portrait of Cinderella, a marble-floored foyer, mosaics, murals and a clock that is halted, some might say magically, at 11:59.
