The Liberty Belle Riverboat is an attraction located in [[Liberty Square]].
==Attraction History==
The Liberty Square Riverboat is one of the few attractions that can trace its history back to before Walt Disney even created Disneyland. In fact, Walt Disney initially came up with an idea for a "Mississippi Steamboat" attraction to be housed at the Disney Studio in Burbank, California <ref name="Jack1"> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/2010/03/liberty_belle_riverboat_part_1_1.html</ref>. Although it was soon apparent that the Burbank Studio did not have the land necessarily to build the attraction, the idea was carried over to Disneyland. In order to create the riverboat attraction (which was soon called the Mark Twain Riverboat) Disney had to construct the first American made, working steamboat in 50 years <ref name="Jack1" />. With funds coming directly from Walt himself, Admiral Joe Fowler oversaw the construction of both the attraction's riverboat and dry dock (located in the Rivers of America). The Mark Twain itself was built in two separate pieces, with the hull being constructed in San Pedro, California and deck being built at the Disney Studios in Burbank. Finally, the ship was put together in Disneyland (with the pieces fitting together perfectly) and The Mark Twin Riverboat was up and running on July 17, 1955 (the opening day of Disneyland) <ref name=Jack1 /> <ref> http://www.mouseplanet.com/guide/308/Disneyland-Resort/Disneyland-Park/Frontierland/Mark-Twain-Riverboat </ref>.
===Like many other Disneyland attractions, the Mark Twain Riverboat was selected to be duplicated for Walt Disney World. The Original Journey Into Imagination Attraction East Coast version of the attraction was renamed the Admiral Joe Fowler in tribute to the man who had helped to create Disneyland and Walt Disney World (1983-1998as well as the Riverboat attractions)<ref name===What would "FowlerDatedWorld"> https://waltdatedworld.com/id141.html</ref>. Although not quite ready for opening day, the Joe Fowler Riverboat opened one day be known as Journey Into Imaginationafter the park, began as an idea from Imagineer Tony Baxter. Baxter was tasked with working on an attraction for EPCOT Center's Kodak PavilionOctober 2, with 1971. After the Joe Fowler Riverboat opened, live entertainment could often be found on the ship’s deck (due to the only request being fact that they wanted something there were not that would be "very imaginative". Based many sights for guests to see on this request, Tony came up with the idea Rivers of a Dream Catcher (as it is unofficially calledAmerica); a machine which traveled through space collecting sparks of imagination<ref name=FowlerDatedWorld/>.
Piloting the Dream Catcher, would be DreamfinderSince Walt Disney World did not yet have enough attractions to meet demand, in 1973 a whimsical inventor who collected and reused imaginationsecond steamboat was built. The Dreamfinder character actually began Known as the host of an unbuilt attraction called Richard F. Irvine, the Gallery of Illusion. This attraction new steamboat was to be built in named after Richard Irvine who oversaw the never constructed Discovery Bay expansion planning and construction of DisneylandWalt Disney World. Besides their names, and it the only difference between the two steamboats was to be hosted by an investor named Professor Marvelthat Admiral Joe Fowler had two smokestacks, while the Richard F. In one of the scenes in this attraction, Professor Marvel showed how he domesticated dragons, even holding a baby Irvine only had one<ref name= Jack1/>. When work began on Journey Into Imaginationthey ran together, Captain Marvel became the inspiration for DreamfinderLiberty Square's riverboats were staggered in their departure times, with Joe Rhode serving as so that when one boat was circling Tom Sawyer Island the model for the characterother boat would be unloading and loading new guests.
The second character created for first major change to the Liberty Square Riverboats came in 1980. Disaster struck the Journey Into Imagination attraction, when the hull of the Admiral Joe Fowler was badly damaged while entering a purplebacklot, childlike dragon named Figmentdry dock <ref> http://www. Figment’s creation began when Tony Baxter was watching an episode of Magnum Pwdwradio.Icom/2007/09/liberty-square-riverboat/ </ref>. In Although the episodecircumstances of the accident are unclear, Magnum had hidden one source says that the hull was damaged while being lifted by a goat in Higgins’ yardcrane. Another source states however, that it was split while water was being drained from the dry dock. Either way, Disney decided that they would not repair the broken ship, and although the goad had predictably torn up exact location of the vegetation. When Higgins suggested ship’s hull and decks are unknown, we do know that a goat the boats machinery was ruining his yardsent to Tokyo and used in their steamship <ref name= FowlerDatedWorld/> <ref> http://meettheworldinprogressland.blogspot.com/2010/02/walt-disney-world-steamboats-of-magic.html </ref>. Furthermore, Magnum replied that it the bell from the Admiral Joe Fowler was all just added to the #4 engine (the Roy O. Disney) on the [[Walt Disney World Railroad]].===Name Change===In 1996 (following a figment of his imaginationrefurbishment) the Richard F. Higgins’ response that “Figments don’t eat grass!” gave Baxter Irvine was renamed the inspiration for his new characterLiberty Belle, named Figmentand the attraction itself was renamed the Liberty Square Riverboat. Tony would later explain that Figment The name change was a character done to both make the attraction's name easier to remember, and to tie the boat in with Liberty Square <ref name= Jack1/>. In order to keep the names of Joe Fowler and Richard Irvine alive in Walt Disney World, in 1999 two ferries that everyone knows about run from the Ticket and has never been visualizedTransportation Center to the Magic Kingdom were renamed in their honor <ref> http://www.wcdept478.com/AbouttheFB.htm </ref>.
Taking some inspiration from the Gallery of Illusion attraction, Figment was initially sketched by Disney artist Steve Kirk who turned in ==Ship Structure==The Liberty Belle Riverboat is a three deck working steamship that has a rough drawing maximum capacity of the character450 people <ref> http://www.wdwinfo. Imagineer X Atencio then slightly altered com/wdwinfo/guides/magickingdom/lib-riverboat.htm </ref>. Guests enter the drawing to, "make ship on the character lovablemiddle deck, in which features a way that kids could relate to". With their two main characters designedsitting room, Imagineers set about finding voices for the duo. Although finding a voice for Dreamfinder was relatively simple (with actor Chuck McCann filling the role) finding a voice for Figment proved to be much more difficult. Disney had men, womenan outside wheelhouse, boys and girls all audition for the role, but no voice was deemed suitable. Eventually, they found Figmentcaptain's voice quarters. Sometimes one lucky family is selected to ride the boat in veteran voice actor Billy Barty, who was deemed perfect for the rolecaptain's quarters. When talking about the role of Figment, Tony Baxter said:
{{Quotation| "The story needed to describe On the complex process in an engagingbottom deck of the boat, interactive way without seeming like guests can see the ship's boiler and pistons.

To help them with their understanding Rivers of imaginationAmerica's murky water. The boat is also staffed by two crew members. The ride operator, Disney brought in various scientist who sits on the ship's top deck where he rings the bell, triggers the narration and artistsblows the whistle. Eventually they came to Down in the conclusion that while everybody’s imagination was differentship's boiler room, how people get their imagination is the sameengineer controls the ship's speed. Thus they decided to focus on how we gatherAs previously noted, the Liberty Square Riverboat is a working steamship, store and recombine ideasthus the boat is propelled by the paddle wheel that is itself propelled by the steam engine <ref> http://www.disneydining.com/7-amazing-features-of-the-liberty-square-riverboat/ </ref>.
Despite originally scheduled ==Attraction Plot==[[Image:BeaconJOe.jpg|thumb|360px|Beacon Joe as an opening day attraction, Journey Into Imagination opened on March 5, 1983, five months after EPCOT Center’s opening dayseen from the Liberty Square Riverboat.

===Journey Into Your Imagination (1999-2001)==={{Quotation| "Welcome aboard the Liberty Belle, I'm your captain Horace Bixby and my pilot with me here on the Texas Deck is a young cub that goes by the name of Samuel Clemens."}}
With It turns out that this trip aboard the new millennium approachingLiberty Belle is the 100th journey for young Sam Clemens, it was decided that Journey Into Imagination needed who claims to be updated. While know the attraction remained popular, it had seen a recent decline in attendance and was beginning to look dated. Because Rivers of this, Kodak's renewal America like the back of their sponsorship of the Journey Into Imagination Pavilion necessitated that the attraction be updated before 2000 (when Epcot was planning on having its big millennium celebration)his hand. After a series of rejected ideas (including an attraction based on Before the 1997 movie FlubberBelle leaves port, and another attraction that would have Sam warns guests entering to stay behind the mind of a celebrity),Walt Disney Imagineering pitched an idea for "must see" attraction that would use special effectsrailings, as river pirates are known to challenge and confuse guest’s senseslurk around these waters. After hearing the pitch, one executive said:
{{Quotation|“If you were in The first sight that room hearing guests can see from the pitch you would have been blown awayLiberty Belle is [[Frontierland]]. You'll be in this dark room Sam comments that Frontierland was once just a boom town, and not be able although there are still a few trappers, prospectors, and Indians, the town is well on its way to tell up from downbecoming a big city. You will be surrounded by sound and not know Sam also mentions that the large peak in the directiontown is known as [[Chick-A-Pin Hill]]. It was all amazing, sounded state of seems that the art dam atop the hill has burst, and more importantly guaranteed people have begun to give ride carved out logs over the guests a terrific experienceledge.Continuing on, the boat passes Sam's "| http://wwwold stomping ground", [[Tom Sawyer Island]].epcotlegacySam says that the only way to get to the island is by raft, before pointing out parts of the island including: Muff Potter's Pond, Harper's Mill, Tom's Landing, and Huck's Landing (it seems that Tom, Huck and Sam used to explore the island quite a bit while looking for adventure).com}}
The new attraction was eventually given the blessing of both Kodak and DisneyTurning guest's attention port side, and Journey Into Imagination was closed on October 10, 1998. Taking its inspiration from the Sam next points out [[Honey, I Shrunk the AudienceBig Thunder Mountain]] attraction, it was decided that the new Journey Into Imagination would become before giving guests a part little bit of history behind the fiction Imagination Institute (which the entire pavilion would now be themed as)attraction. Renamed Journey Into “Your” Imagination, Sam explains that the water gets so hot over by the new attraction took guests on a tour of that geysers erupt. Indians used to the Imagination Institute, where think that the geysers were spirits and they learned named the “effects mountain “Big Thunder Mountain” because of soundthe rain that would come from it. Later, color, illusion, dimension when prospectors and gravity on people's ‘imagination generator.’” Dr. Nigel Channing (Eric Idle), who had appeared in Honey, I Shrunk settlers came to the Audiencearea, was tapped as the host of new attractionname stuck. Imagineer Orrin Shively (who had previously produced Test Track) produced Journey Into “Your” Imagination, and gave the show a minimal plot in order Sam goes on to allow warn guests to explore their own imagination. Journey Into Your Imagination was constructed however, that there has not been blasting in exactly one year, making it one of the fasted built, modern attractions, mountain in Walt Disney Worldsome time. During the constructionInstead, the attraction’s track length was shortened by 40% all he hears now are ghost stories about spirits and the turntable (which had been a source of maintenance issues since the attraction opened) was removed. Also removed from the attraction, were popular characters Dreamfinder and Figment (although Figment made a few cameos in the new attraction). The entire Imagination! Pavilion (as it was now called) was dedicated on September 29, 1998, with Journey Into “Your” Imagination opening on October 1runaway mine trains.
Following As the boat continues its reopeningjourney, Journey Into Your Imagination was bombarded by guest complaintsthe next sight that guests can see is Beacon Joe and his dog Rufus in front of his bait shop. The attraction was described Sam informs guests that Beacon Joe has been marking the river for as cheaplong as he can remember. Further down the bank, boringPowhatan Indians are gathering, and condescending. Many fans further decided to boycott the attraction Captain Bixby explains that although he has seen various Indian tribes, (including the Seminole, Black Feet, and even KodakCrow tribes) in order to show their displeasurePowhatan Indians are not usually found this far west. Besides angering fansSam suggests that since there are so many animals in the area, Journey Into Your Imagination also angered Kodak, who felt they did not get an attraction that was worth their investmentare simply following the food. Due to [[Image:IndianVillage.jpg|thumb|380px|The Indian village as seen from the pressure asserted by fans, Kodak, and even Disney CEO Michael Eisner, Journey Into Your Imagination was closed for another refurbishment on October 8, 2001Liberty Square Riverboat.Photo by Daryl Mitchell]]
===Journey Into Imagination with Figment (2001-Present)===Continuing on, the boat passes an unidentified Indian village. The captain informs guest that the Indians were not sure what to make of the steamboat originally, and they called the ship a "fire canoe" and “comet of sun”. Scenes in the village include Indians cooking, trading, washing, and also two kids working on canoes. Past the village, guests see the Indian burial ground where the captain explains that the Indians lay their dead warriors on a "Bed of Death" and mourn them after nightfall.
Following Further down the failure of Journey Into Your Imaginationriver, it was decided that once again the attraction needed to be significantly changedLiberty Belle reaches Cutthroat Corner. This time howeverSam tells riders that Cutthroat Corner, is the budget for the refurbishment was extremely limited. Sponsor Kodak was unwilling most likely place to put more money into the attraction, and the tourism industry as a whole had been devastated by the attacks on September 11, 2001find river pirates. Working with these constraintsSure enough, Imagineering was given a budget of less than 8 million dollars, and tasked with turning Journey Into Your Imagination into a respectable attraction. Based pirates can be heard coming from Wilson's Cave; however Sam tells gusts that based on guest feedback, Imagineering knew that the needed to reinstate Figment back into sounds coming out of the attraction. To do thiscave, Figment Audio Animatronics which had been stored in various offices on Disney property, were recollected and returned to the attraction"their interests lie elsewhere". FurthermoreLooking back towards Tom Sawyer Island, many of the show scenes were reshotguests can see Fort Laghorn, so that Dr. Nigel Channing now interacted with Figmentwhich Sam explains began as a trading post before becoming a port.
Besides just adding the purple dragon back into the attractionBefore returning to port in [[Liberty Square]], Disney also changed the tone of the ride significantly. Instead of being a scientific tourleadsman calls out one more time, and the new version of Journey Into Imagination was a comical journey through Liberty Belle passes the Institute’s Sense Labs[[Haunted Mansion]]. Dr. Nigel Channing still ran Sam informs guests that rumor has it that the tour, but he mansion was now interrupted by a significantly more troublesome Figment, who argued with the Dr. about the value of Imagination. Although the attraction track remained essentially the same, the show scenes were all significantly changed. More importantly perhaps, the ride vehicles now came to a stop in most of the different rooms, allowing Imagineers to focus guest’s attention built on a specific sceneIndian burial ground, and create a more linear storynow 999 ghosts haunt it. Also of noteHe says however, Disney added that he does not believe in these stories (insinuating that the song One Little Spark back into the attractionpeople who say they've seen ghosts, albeit with mostly new lyricshave been drinking). The Sherman Brothers were once again hired to write the lyricsFinally, with the song being performed by Dr. Nigel Channing Liberty Belle reaches port and Figment.Journey Into Your Imagination reopened Sam and Captain Bixby say goodbye as Journey Into Imagination With Figment on June 2, 2002, a mere 236 days after it closedthe boat docks.

The second version of Journey Into Imagination was *Sam Clemens the pilot on the Liberty Belle, is better known as Journey Into ''Your'' ImaginationAmerican writer Mark Twain. The focus Twain was known as a lover of steamships (specifically those on the ride was to allow guests to explore their own imaginationMississippi River) and did actually captain some steamships himself. Due to this conceptIn Disneyland, the attraction had minimal plot and is known as the popular characters the Dreamfinder and Figment were almost completely removedMark Twain Riverboat.
The attraction*Captain Horace Bixby, the Liberty Belle's plot began in the queuecaptain, where guests could see signs for was a real steamboat captain on the Imagination InstituteMississippi. A directory showed that Horace Bixby and Sam Clemens met aboard the institute was made up of six different departments: colorPaul Jones (a steamboat), dimensionsand Bixby agreed to take Sam on as his apprentice. Some 21 years after this meeting, gravity, illusions, sound, and the [[ImageWorks]]now famous Mark Twain reunited with the captain in St. DrLouis.

Here, guests were challenged to Tell City was one of the United States' first "see what you hearplanned cities", and attracted many settlers with free land.

Dr. Nigel Channing would then invite guests to visit the [[ImageWorks]] concluding the attraction.==Sam Clemens' Sayings==
===Journey Into Imagination With Figment(2002-Present)===Throughout the narration on the Liberty Belle, Sam Clemens gives various philosophical sayings. Although these phrases were not actually spoken by Mark Twain, they are written to give the character a similar personality. Sayings Sam Clemens says on the attraction include:
Like Journey Into ''Your'' Imagination, Journey Into Imagination With Figment begins with guests entering the Imagination Institute. Here, guests see the five departments of the institute: smell, sight, sound, taste, and touch. In the queue, guests can see potraits of the the Inventor of the Year award winners. They include, Dr. Nigel Channing, Wayne Szalinski (from the Honey, *"Well now I Shrunk series) always figure it is better to keep your mouth shut and Professor Philip Brainard (from the movie Flubber). Guests can also see the labs of the three scientists as they they wait ing line. After boarding their ride vehiclesappear stupid, Dr. Nigel Channing introduces himself, and welcomes guests then to the institute. He informs them that they will be taking a moving open house, which will show how the five senses affect Imagination. Figment then appears, and tells the doctor that he wants to go on the tour too. When Dr. Channing tells him he doesn't want the purple dragon out of his sight, Figment disappears it and guests begin their tourremove all doubt."
The first room *"It seems to me that the ride vehicles enter is the sound lab. The professor begins his demonstration by playing a series of tones. All of the suddenwhen I was younger, guests here a phone ringing, and Figment appears holding a phoneI could remember everything whether it happened or not. The doctor then declares that he has "completely lost my train of thought". Figment then replies that he found it, But as guests hear a train go roaring by. Figment then begins to sing a new verse I grow older I seem to remember only the song "One Little Sparkthings that never happened at all."
{{Quotation|"For every sound<br>your ears are hearing<br>*All my life it seems I could never tell a thousand thoughts<br>can start appearing<br>and each of us imagines different things<br>from just lie that anybody could doubt, nor a sound<br>your mind has wingstruth that anybody could believe."}}
After exiting the sound lab*"Believe me when I tell you, guests enter truth is the sight labmost valuable thing we have, here Dr. Nigel Channing alerts guests to a large eye chart in the room. While guests read so I make sure I only use it, they can see the silhouette of Figment creeping across the screenwith economy. Soon, Figment gets rid of all the other letters, and he spells out the word "Figment". Figment says that people sight is a lot more fun when they use their imagnation instead of their eyes. He then sings another new verse of "One Little Spark"
{{Quotation| One spark of light<br>Can light your fancy<br>Your mind sees more<br>Then what your eyes see<br>Your sense of sight<br>Can make your fancy fly<br>There*"I was born humble captain, but mostly it's more to sight<br>Then meets the eye!}}worn off."
The next room in the tour is the smell lab. As guests enter it, Figment and Dr. Nigel Channing argue about whether Imagination should be controlled or set free. Here, guests can see a giant butterfly which seems *"I believe we ought never to appear out of nowhere. Inside the smell roomdo wrong captain, Figment takes control and sets off a slot machineespecially when others are looking. The machine comes up with three skunks, leading guests to get sprayed. Different containers in the room hold other smells, including one for a rose. Figment then begins to sing "One Little Spark" again.

[[Image:Figmenthouse.jpg|thumb|Figment ==Trivia==*One of the crates on the Frontierland bank says "71" in his house, which is upside downhonor of the year the Magic Kingdom opened.]]
After this catastrophic, Dr. Channing decides to skip the touch and taste labs. He also questions whether or not to end the tour altogether. Figment *Another crate says theyRussel’s Falls, should, but he decides to take everybody on a tour of his house.
