A very sad story to report this weekend, especially for fans of the It’s A Small World ride, but anyone who has enjoyed Disney’s classic films of the 1940s and 50s.
Joyce Carlson, one of the Walt Disney Co’s best-known artists and an official Disney Legend (the company’s Hall of Fame), has died at her home in Orlando at the age of 84.
It is always great to spend new years in Disneyland, seeing all the things you love (rides, shows etc) with that great little “plus” atmosphere which only new years can give! It is even better to spend it with friends; as much as most of my “Disney friends” (to give it a “group name” but the over all friendshp feeling created by Disney goes well behond such a steroptyped group name) could not make it I found myself sharing a room with a dear old good friend (who stands this crazy fastpass adict Italian since a long time 
) and really enjoying this strange trip! Why am I calling it strange you might ask? Well I have to admit lately I have been using DLRP to the extreme as “home base” for my French business trips etc. My company has set up a commercial company in France (which I have been assigned to as head from Italy) and the company is actually based in Lagny sur marne! Where is Lagny you might ask? Well next time you are riding Indiana jones look to your right on the first hill and 2 km straight you will see my office!
