One More Disney Day Opening Ceremony

It’s been a hectic 18 hours so far here at Walt Disney World’s “One More Disney Day” Leap Day celebration — 24 hours of Magic Kingdom fun! I admit, I haven’t been in the park the entire time — we were up at 4 a.m. to be here before 5:30 a.m. for this morning’s opening ceremony and by 2 p.m. or so I definitely needed a little break. We went back into the park tonight to see the Magic, Memories and You show and the midnight showing of the Main Street Electrical Parade, and we’ll be popping back in in the wee hours to see the day-long event wind down at 6 a.m. Thursday morning.

Just to give you an idea of how the day started out though, here’s a video of the morning’s opening ceremony — we’ll have lots more photos in the next day or two! And if you’re a night owl like me, be sure to follow our late night tweets on Twitter at http://twitter.com/AllEarsNet

  1. Congratulations to my friend Jay and his family. What a well deserved surprise
    for them. I told him my husband saw them on this website. He then posted it
    on Facebook and said how clear the video was. Thank you allears.net for a wonderful website. As avid Disney fans ourselves we use this sight quite a bit.

  2. It was a Magical night and amazing 24 hours in Magic Kingdom. Our family was the family chosen to open the Park and do the welcome count down. A dream come true. The cast members were incredible with the entire family.
