Donald's not the Only Duck in Town

Every day at 10:50 a.m., the red carpet is unfurled in The Peabody Orlando's grand lobby. Classical music fills the air and guests jockey for prime viewing areas, cameras at the ready, in anticipation of the VIPs. Then, in they waddle. Real live ducks (as opposed to the animatronic animals found elsewhere in this, the theme park capital of the world). It's a charming scene, and the official mascots help give The Peabody Orlando, one of the area's most elegant hotels, a bit of whimsy.
