Fact: Disney's Magic Kingdom is built on a tunnel system that allows characters to leave one area, enter the tunnels, and pop up all the way on the other side of the park. This was done in an effort to make it more magical, and so that the characters wouldn't get swamped with people, and so you didn't have a character just walking through the park. <3 Preserving the Magic one day at a time!

Fact: Rats succumb to peer-pressure, just like humans. Brown rats are prone to disregard personal experiences in order to copy the behaviour of their peers. The urge to conform is so strong that they will even choose to eat unpalatable food if they are in the company of other rats who are eating it.

Fact:
Roses are related to apples, raspberries, cherries, peaches, plums, nectarines, pears and almonds. Rose hips (the berry-like fruit structure of rose) of some species of rose are amongst the richest source of Vitamin C. They are used to make jams, jellies and also brewed for tea. In ancient Egypt roses were considered as sacred flowers. Ancient Egyptians used them during funerals to form a beautiful wreath on the tomb stone. The flower was used to serve the Goddess Isis in a sacred ritual.
