Family Receives Royal Welcome at Walt Disney World

Disney, Without Crowds

Walking hand in hand on a red carpet, Raymond and Tammy Spangler and their two children seemed unsure of their steps at Walt Disney World. The Magic Kingdom was eerily quite, with only the chirping of birds, piped in orchestra music and the sound of their footsteps filling the 125 acre park. They were about halfway up the red carpet to the Cinderella Castle when all that dissolved and 1,500 mice, baseball players and princesses came streaming out of hiding to welcome them. "There were like thousands and thousands of people in the streets all of a sudden," 13 year old Derick Spangler said.

The Spanglers, of Randolph, Ohio, were the first to win a marquee prize in Disney's Year of a Million Dreams celebration. One of 50,000 online entrants, they were rewarded with a morning of the Magic Kingdom all to themselves and a VIP tour.

By noon, the family had been on Space Mountain, to the Dumbo attraction , on a carousel filled with Disney characters and on the Jungle cruise, where 11 year old Ashley got to drive. All were free of lines, of course.

Other prizes to be awarded in Disneys Year of a Million Dreams include a chance to be the first ever to stay overnight in the Cinderella Castle, trips around the world as grand marshal in the Disney parade, a membership to the Disney Vacation Club.

Some, like a pass allowing guests to skip lines at attractions for the day, will be awarded at random to unsuspecting guests visiting a Disney park.

All the company's worldwide properties are participating, but the biggest prizes are at Disney World, Florida and Disneyland, California.

Prize values range from $3.83-$83.701 for the vacation club package, which provides annual points that can be redeemed for stays at Disney properties.

The Spanglers had been to Disney World before, but didn't plan on coming now. They found out only three weeks ago that they won, but said it was no trouble to get work and school off.

The Magic Kingdom opened to the rest of the public at 10:00 a.m., an hour later than usual. Different sections of the park were opened to all guests after the Spanglers moved through.     - AP
