What, exactly, is there to do in the “Tom Sawyer’s Island” area? From what I’ve read, there are no attractions there: no restaurants and no rides.
Exactly. I think the point was to ship the fidgedy little "Tom Sawyers" [who just drank a quart of soda] off to the island to pee in the woods (saves a trip to the restrooms) so mom and grandma could spend quality time in the Enchanted Tiki Room.
Tom Sawyers Island used to be so much fun! But then they took out the rifles in the stockade and the balancing rock. I think a little girl caught her finger in the trigger of one of the rifles and it cost them boatloads in a lawsuit. Ahhhhhh, the olden days were GOOD! I remember Sally Ride on her first Shuttle trip.......said it was definitely an E ticket.......I bet it was!
