Hello Everyone,

Walt Disney World turned 50 on Friday. I could not make it to Orlando so
instead I spent a full day at the Disneyland Resort. I enjoyed the
Halloween Time Festivities, checking out more entertainment around the
parks, hotels & Downtown Disney plus took a look at the ongoing projects
around the parks. If you missed any of the Walt Disney World news this
past week I have links to several of the press releases with photos,
video and information from Disney below.

If you would like to see any of my Walt Disney World pictures
(https://disneygeek.com/wdw/pictures/) here are full picture sets from
the past 19 years. Also this past week marks 6 years since my first
visit to Disneyland Paris
(https://blog.disneygeek.com/trip-summaries/2015-paris-trip-summary/) ,
here is a listing
(https://blog.disneygeek.com/trip-summaries/2015-paris-trip-summary/) of
the pictures, videos, thoughts & observations featuring a look at
theirHalloween Time festivities
