How many people met and spoke with Walt Disney at Disneyland before he died? If you met him like I did tell us about it. I was there for the opening of the Hall of Presidents July 1966. We had stopped at an orange Julius stand. He came up to our table and visited with us for about 15 minutes. He most likely heard our distinctive NY accent and wondered why 2 children were alone at the park. My dad drove us from NJ. We saw so many national treasures as we went. Route 66 took us most of the way west. We came back a more northern route to see as many states as possible. Even if you flew to California or lived there or worked at Disney did you actually meet Walt ? Tell us all about it.
