Did you know Walt Disney World just turned 50 years old? Though it originally started with just one theme park and a handful of resorts, a lot has changed since opening day in 1971.
From a light show at each of the parks called Beacons of Magic to new restaurants and shows, Disney World is doing a lot to celebrate this milestone. As a huge Disney fan, I went to check out all of the new things myself, and here's what I'm most excited about!
