As I mentioned, I spent more than my fair share of time at the Walt Disney Story. It was often (always?) slow; this meant that sometimes walk-around characters would come in for a bit of a break from the crowds. This particular photograph was taken one quiet Sunday morning and is one of my favorites that I have taken. It shows a solitary Mickey (really, just me and the Mick in the Opera House!) watching footage of Disneyland Park's construction. You can read a lot into this... I particularly like the emptiness of the place.

I also have a bit of a repost. The more I looked at the photo of Town Square from Walt's Apartment, the more I wanted the faraway Cast Member removed. So I did that. Now remove Space Mountain and the Old Admin Building, change the pavers back to slurry, repaint some of the buildings, cut back the trees, change the trash cans and... voila! Walt's Town Square.
