Walt Disney Family Museum






I went to Walt Disney Family Museum in Presidio that opened in October this year. It focuses on different chapters in the life of Walt Disney himself, from his early years in Kansas City to his arrival in Hollywood in the 1920s to his technological innovations, like synchronizing sound to a cartoon.

Many parts of the exhibition will be narrated by the voice of Walt, caught on tape by his daughter Diane in the 1950s. Diane -- by then the young wife of Ron Miller, who was a tight end for the Los Angeles Rams -- recorded 19 hours of tape for a biography of her father. It is pretty amazing to follow his life explained by his actual voice.

Only one area inside the building is allowed for photography. You can see the beautiful Golden Gate bridge. (I took a picture in bathroom, too :)
