This morning in Papenburg, Germany, I watched the Disney Fantasy move a step closer to reality as Disney Cruise Line celebrated the keel laying during a special ceremony at the Meyer Werft shipyard. I felt honored to witness such a monumental moment. The keel laying marks a significant milestone in the ship building process – it’s when the first block, or section of the ship, is lowered into the building dock and a coin is placed under the keel for good fortune. Karl Holz, President of Disney Cruise Line, placed the coin in the keel today with assistance from Minnie Mouse.

We just opened a new nighttime spectacular, “ World of Color ,” and a reimagined attraction, Silly Symphony Swings , and began the second year of Summer Nightastic! at the Disneyland Resort , but there’s even more Disney magic on the horizon. This morning we hosted an event called “What’s Next” and shared a look at what’s coming to Southern California in the next few months and years. Here are some of the headlines: The “Adventures Continue” for the Jedi in All of Us – Kathy Rogers, Senior Show Producer at Walt Disney Imagineering, gave a huge update on the reimagining of Star Tours today. The new Star Tours 3-D attraction will debut in 2011 in Disneyland park and will bridge that “long time ago” between the two Star Wars trilogies.
