Storyline

Walt Disney introduces Julie Reems,Miss Disneyland Tencennial,who is to travel as Disneyland's official ambassador,and he shows Julie the imagineering department at Disneyland,and shows her the initial project of the IT'S A SMALL WORLD building that will be built (the ride featured at the World's Fair), and the new restaurant that will be built. Then he shows her the haunted mansion that will be built,and miniatures of the Pirates of the Carribean ride that will be built. Next, Tinkerbell uses her "magic" to take viewers to Disneyland for the big ten-year celebration with Mickey and the gang. A big cake with dancing candles (girls in candle costumes) entertains us,then the big cake separates into pieces that put on a nonsensical (to be funny) show.

Walt Disney shows the future plans for Disneyland

This is a wonderful episode where Julie Reems, Disneyland's official ambassador, is shown the future plans for Disneyland. Among other things, there are new rides in the works, and a new restaurant. Some of these new rides are rides that I rode on years ago when I went to Disneyland, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. One part of this episode that brings tears to my eyes is right after the dancing candles when the pieces of the big cake separate and go every which way. I have this ache in my heart to be a five year old boy again, to experience the magic of Disney. The ending of the show is very enjoyable with the Dixieland at Disneyland celebration, with jazz bands doing such numbers as "Red River Valley" or "When the Saints come Marching In." I also like the fireworks that explode above in the sky near the end of the show.

It is my favorite episode of Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color, even better than Disneyland Goes to the World's Fair.
