You may have missed this to begin the week but we had a special treat on the Fourth of July – a special look at the Liberty Tree’s patriotic roots. The tree, which sits across from The Hall of Presidents in Magic Kingdom Park at the Walt Disney World Resort, is actually modeled after a real symbol of American history and also has ties to the film that inspired Walt Disney to create a Liberty Square at Magic Kingdom Park.
