February 10, 2008 - Scene from the Dreams Come True Parade

Took this shot (and over 300 others) at the end of the eight hour 'Behind the Magic' Tour. After spending time behind the scenes, getting a chance to see nearly ever aspects of how Walt Disney World is ran, our guide Jim took us to a prime viewing spot for the afternoon parade. This was show the power of Disney magic.

"Xavier Atencio figured out what they would say. Or, for the most part, sing. "When we did 'Yo Ho, a Pirate's Life for Me,'" said Atencio, "we couldn't have a beginning or an end, because you didn't know where you were going to come into the song in the ride. Each verse had to make some kind of sense, no matter when you heard it." "

"The story behind Sonny is that he was discovered by restaurateurs Cosmic Ray while performing his 'Bossa Supernova' musical stylings at cosmic weddings and space mall openings all over the galaxy." -Walt Disney Imagineers.

-Another great example of the back story Imagineers give to all their creations.

Year of a Million Dreams Commercial

This is straight up magical, no bones about it. I could watch it daily. Watching this makes me smile and want to hop in my car and drive the 20-some hours to Walt Disney World. Only 50 weeks until the next trip.

(Sorry for the lack of quality, but this was filmed using my Canon digital camera, off my TV, from the World's End BluRay disc, as a source was not found online. Hopefully someone will know of a better quality.)

Enjoy!
