1989 Walt Disney World Christmas Day Parade | Joan Lunden | Alan Thicke | Kermit the Frog | Regis Philbin

Our parade hosts Mickey Mouse, and Minnie Mouse are joined by Joan Lunden, Alan Thicke, Kermit the Frog, and Regis Philbin at Walt Disney World in Florida; and from Disneyland in California, it’s Growing Pains Joanna Kerns, Family Ties Mark Price, and Major Dads Whitney Kershaw.

We take a trip to a Galaxy Far, Far Away when Alan Thicke checks out the new attraction Star Tours.  We celebrate Christmas with the New Mickey Mouse Club at MGM Studios, Santa’s Elves take a vacation at Typhoon Lagoon, and Kermit, the Frog, takes us on a unique slight ride at MGM Studios where we take a behind-the-scenes look at The Little Mermaid.

Then it’s off to Disneyland to celebrate the 35^th Anniversary; take a look at the new Splash Mountain and an all-new Disney Christmas Parade packed with new floats, music, and surprises.  Michael Eisner introduces voting for EPCOT’s Person of the Century, and Joan takes us to the new Wonders of Life Pavilion at EPCOT Center, featuring Body Wars.
