Released less than a year after Walt Disney’s Passing, holiday time in Disneyland 1967 showcased the attractions Walt had been working on.  Including footage of Walt describing the experience and showing viewers models of New Orleans Square and Pirates of the Caribbean.  Including the scale model along with an inside look at WED highlighting the creations of the attraction.  After seeing how they did it, we get to ride along with a preview of Pirates of the Caribbean.   After pirates, our tour guide explains that when Disneyland was built in 1955, Tomorrowland seemed more science fiction than the real world; when the 1960s arrived, the world of today began to catch up with Disneyland’s Tomorrowland.  Walt set out to create an all-new Tomorrowland, and here it is today (1967)

Sam has been visiting Walt Disney World since 1986. The spark from those early trips lead to an interest in the "How" and "Why" behind Disney Parks and Resorts and the thrill of discovering the history of how we got here today. That History is still being written. In addition to participating on The Disney Nerds Podcast you can find blogs at www.samsdisneydiary.com
