Disney decided to build his park in California, and in 1952 he
began to buy land. This proved to be a difficult task, since the
land he wanted was owned by no fewer than twenty families. In
1954, he sent four members of his staff around the United States
looking for ideas at establishing amusement parks. The only idea on which they found general agreement was that Disney was insane. Owners of other parks said it was impossible to succeed without dangerous rides or using methods that were at least a little dishonest. However, Disney went on with his plans for a clean, safe park, which he decided to call Disneyland.
At last Disneyland was built and opened to the public. Very quickly, it came to be regarded as one of the wonders of the modern world.
Disneyland was a personal satisfaction to Disney. It expressed his ideas of all that is true, good and beautiful in this world. He was never tired of visiting the park himself, of expanding it or improving it. Even today, Disneyland is kept spotless(无污点的). Every night, every street and walkway is washed, and workers with knives get down on their hands and knees to scrape out(刮去)chewing gum dropped by visitors.
Disney himself didn’t live long enough to visit his Fl orida park. Death came in December 1966. On the day of his death, this headline appeared in the New York Times:
Walt Disney, 65, dies on coast
