Abstract
Abstract The numbers are staggering. In a very real sense Orlando, Florida, can reckon 1965 as the line of demarcation in its history. Before that, it was a pleasant, almost sleepy town in central Florida, but Walt Disney quietly began assembling parcels of swampland into a huge tract south of the city. The opening of Walt Disney World on October 1, 1971, quickly transformed Orlando into the theme park capital of the world, with such attractions as Epcot Center, Disney-MGM Studios, Universal Studios, Sea World, and Gatorland Zoo. In 1989, approximately thirteen million pilgrims found their way to Orlando, a town that boasts more motel rooms, nearly eighty thousand, than any other city in the United States.
