My favorite photos of Walt Disney at Disneyland park show a man thoroughly enjoying the place he created. The photo I’m sharing today is certainly in that category.
In the summer of 1963, a section of Main Street, U.S.A., known as Center Street was home to a “Salute to Mexico,” a celebration of Mexican culture, and Walt Disney was on hand for the opening of this first-of-its kind Disneyland exhibition.
As you can see, Walt seemed to be having a great time joining in the celebration.
¡Viva Disneyland!

This must have been an exciting time, that was also the year that the Enchanted Tiki Room opened.
I looooove how happy he looks. It’s nice he had the joy along with I’m sure alot of headaches to bring Disney to the world.
Love this picture!
I love seeing photos of Walt in Disneyland.
I wish Disney would do something like this again rather than just the small Dia de los Muertos display near the Rancho del Zocalo restaurant at Halloween.
