24th july. new co-author

Well we are making progress. The blog is getting easier to read. the background is completed and in, and i have asked my sister to be an author on this blog. Once she starts going back to disneyland ( mid august) i believe she will write a couple articles for us.

P.S if anyone enjoys blogging and has passes to disneyland or disney world, and you feel like you may want to blog with us let me know. adding a couple more authors may not be a bad thing.

Picture of the day

This day in history

1966:

The New Orleans Square area opens at Disneyland, California, with
a ceremony presided over by Walt Disney and the real mayor of New
Orleans, Victor Schiro. The 3-acre site, the first new themed "land" added to
Disneyland after its 1955 opening, has cost $18 million to build. New Orleans Square (not a square so much as an intricate series of "streets") is the only land in the Magic Kingdom to debut without a single attraction. Although filled with shops and restaurants like the One of a Kind shop and Mademoiselle Antoinette's Parfumerie, the Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion attractions won't open until 1967 and 1969. (Sadly, due to his health, this will turn out to be Walt's last major public appearance in the park.)


Fun fact of the day

What no Pepsi at Disneyland? -

Coca-Cola products are the only soft drinks that you can buy at Disneyland. Coca-Cola made a deal with Disney to sell their products exclusively. Coca-Cola gives Disneyland all their Coca-Cola products for free as long as they don't allow any of their competitors to be sold at Disneyland. So don't try to order a Pepsi, Dr. Pepper or Mountain Dew because you won't find any Pepsi products sold at Disneyland.

Disneyland makes pure profit from their Coca-Cola sales and they also get other products free with similar partnerships with other companies.
