Good Morning America Celebrates "it's a small world" | Disney Parks

I was one of the Cast Members on the train in the Disneyland portion ;)

It was really awesome to be part of the celebration - especially since my grandfather was an electrician on the build of this attraction at the Park in 1965, after it was shipped West from the World's Fair in New York. I had my grandpa's photo pinned inside my tee shirt as I rode on the train and sang the theme song during the broadcast... finally living my dream of being a Disney Cast Member, because of the small world my grandpa opened up to me as a child. <3 He and my uncle also built Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Great Moments with Mr Lincoln, Carousel of Progress, and The Tiki Room... it's an honor to be part of a family legacy like that.

This was my Dad's favorite part of Disney.  He walked around the house for years singing this song until his creator took him home.  You can bet he's up there singing along today!!!!  I love and miss you, Dad.

I watched this this morning and it helped me start the day. I told my dad it was time for a Disney vacation.
Happy Birthday "it's a small world"!!!

So glad the original New York ride is preserved at Disneyland in California. Still a must see on every trip.

When the Sherman brothers wrote this song I bet they had no idea it would be sang around the world 50 years later! What an incredible achievement for them and for the entire Walt Disney Company. Simply amazing!
