Fun Disney Story - Today is a cool day for the McArthy family. Yesterday was Walt's birthday. Tomorrow is my 45th birthday. But, today is December 6th. On 12/6/65 - Walt Disney himself held my wife in his arms on Main Street. She was a newborn and Walt walked right up to her mom & grandma and welcomed them to the park that day. He then asked if he could hold her and she giggled when he did. He must have rubbed off some of that magical Disney pixie dust on her! Have a great day everyone. - wherever you are today!!
That is amazing! Hopefully that's captured in a photo somewhere. - DisneyBride°O°

Unfortunately no. They weren't expecting him to come up that day! - mcarthy6 426.5 #298 12:33PM
A lady I know got to meet Walt when she was a kid. Her family was going on Matterhorn and she didn't want to go. So she waited for them by the exit. A man came up to her to make sure she was ok. She said she was just waiting for her family. He said he would wait with her. When her mon got off the ride, she about fell over when she saw Walt talking with her daughter!!! He stayed with her the whole time!! They were in such shock seeing him that they didn't think to take a picture. That would be a dream come true to see him like that!!!!! - caramiapoohAKAface

That's such a great story Mcarthy! Maybe some day you could find an artist to re-create it. In my minds eye I see a beautiful pencil sketch. - SueBayou
