Today is International Top Spinning Day. Let’s go
for a spin. Okay. I’ll move on now. You could ride any number of spinning rides
at Walt Disney World. How about Dumbo?
Today is National Bring Your Teddy Bear To Work
& School Day. If you worked at EPCOT, your Teddy Bear would be at work,
Duffy Bear. Go see Duffy and get a hug.
Today is Leif Erikson Day. The great Viking explorer
travelled across the northern Atlantic Ocean and was probably the first
European to reach the new world. He called his discovery Vinland. Go to Norway
in EPCOT and be sure to tell them that Vikings Rock.
Speaking of rock, John Lennon was born in Liverpool,
England in 1940. The Beatles changed the face of music permanently. In 1965 Walt
Disney met with Brian Epstein to discuss the Beatles performing songs for The Jungle Book. Walt ended up using
similarly sounding voices for the vultures in the movie. In 1974, John signed
the papers that ended The Beatles at Walt Disney World at the Polynesian
Village Hotel. While we’re at EPCOT, lets visit the British Pavilion and enjoy
the British Revolution.
One of the Pixar greats, Peter Docter was born in
1968 in Bloomington, Minnesota. Docter was the third animator added at Pixar
and the tenth person hired by the company. Docter has directed Monsters, Inc. and Up, worked on Toy Story, Toy
Story 2, A Bugs Life, Cars and Wall-E
and contributed voices for Up, The
Incredibles and Monsters, Inc. Just
go to Hollywood Studios and do the whole Pixar Place thing.
Remember, your best excuse is always: waiting for
your dreams to come true.
