On this weeks show we recall the creation of of the Disneyland's greatest projects - New Fantasyland.  It was built in 1983 to alleviate traffic patterns, update old attractions and to revive Walt Disney's dream of a Fantasyland enveloped the entire area, not just the attractions themselves.  The project shut down Fantasyland for over a year and replaced a couple of older attractions while adding new ones too.
