    I'm a big fan of Milk shakes but so far the only one I've had in WDW was at I believe the 50's prime time diner. I was wondering where else has some good milk shakes and what ones would you all suggest.

    MK construction site quest book?

    I've heard a rumor that when the Magic Kingdom was originally under construction you could visit the site and there was a guest book you could sign. Does anyone know if this is true and if Disney has that book on display anywhere?
