Disneyland Update: Party's Over, Here Comes Halloween, DL Hotel signs, and more!

In other post-50 news .... Julie Andrews' Remember spiels have been edited to remove any indication of Disneyland's 50th Anniversary (and any opportunity to insert a resounding ONE where appropriate).

Instead of "fifty years ago," she now says, "In 1955." And at the show's conclusion, Julie says "Today, Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom..." instead of "Fifty years later..."

Turns out our last "perfect" fireworks was not only the last with bling, it was the last with 50th references by Julie Andrews. I'm really glad we got our ONEs down better than we did on the 51st birthday.

But, hmmm, bothering to edit the spiels leaves me with a sneaking suspicion that Remember will be back in 2007, and perhaps will be the Park's de facto fireworks show for a long, long time to come. Clearly, they've never had anything better (or that registered such levels of guest approval and attendance). And I'm not alone in believing they don't have it in them to top it any time soon.
