Getting bored of cartoons and animations? Here you can learn all about Disneyland and Walt's endeavours to create it.
The Vision
Walt wanted to make an amusement park. He envisioned a park unlike most American amusement parks. He wanted a park that was for the entire family, as most American amusement parks were grubby and grimy and deterred parents from bringing children. Not his.
Disneyland is Made
In the early 1950s, Walt began designing Disneyland. Because Disney's vision outside the box, no one really wanted to help fund it. Even his brother, who often helped with the financial side of things, was not onboard with it. Eventually though, Walt found a good place in Anaheim, California. Construction began in 1954.
Disneyland Opens (A Disaster)
In the summer of 1955 Disneyland opened, but it was only for special invites. Tragedy struck however, as the invite was counterfeited and many uninvited guests came.
The Food Ran Out
A High Heel was Stuck in Wet Asphalt
and a Steamboat Almost Capsized
Disneyland eventually recovered from it, however and was soon open to the public.
All of this, once again, just goes to show how eminent of a person Walt Disney was. As if becoming very successful in making movies, animated or otherwise wasn't enough, he kept working and created Disneyland. When he made Disneyland, he didn't conform to others rules, but instead thought outside the box. In all of this, and more, he displayed eminence and greatness.
