A little bit of Walt
- “Disneyland has always had a big river and a Mississippi sternwheeler. And it seemed appropriate to create a new attraction at the bend of the river. And so, New Orleans Square came into being — a New Orleans of a century ago when she was the ‘Gay Paree’ of the American frontier.” – Walt Disney
