On October 1, 2016, Magic Kingdom Park turned forty-five! It seemed like just yesterday that forty Disney bloggers celebrated the fortieth anniversary; personal, magical stories marking each attraction opening, landmark debut, and entertainment premiere. No step onto Main Street, U.S.A. is complete without the understanding of who and what walked that path before. Here’s a personal retrospective into the Disney World First Forty Years.
