    210 Tempus Fugit

    Episode 10 -- The Finale -- of The Year Before Disneyland wraps in July, 1955.  We begin at The Disneyland Hotel and why it NOT opening with The Park was a Blessing.  Then it’s back to TV with the 1st new ‘Disneyland’ The Show Ep since March:  The Park’s “Pre-Opening Report!”  Then it’s Walt & Lillian’s 30th Wedding Anniversary and (we hope) The Mark Twain’s Maiden Voyage.  THEN, in the Week before Park Opening?  Walt goes to The Hollywood Bowl, Disneyland gets a Freeway Offramp & an Address, while ABC preps the Biggest Live Event in TV History.  Not a big enough finish for you?  We’ll also chat what was in Fantasyland Opening Day! Including Steve Martin.  For more info, or sharing YOUR questions & comments, please find us on Instagram @fromoutofthepastpodcast!  Thanks for listening ...
