Yesterday was a HUGE day for Disney World as it began an 18-month-long party to celebrate its 50th Anniversary!

We love you, Mickey!
And what a party it’s been so far! We were EVERYWHERE yesterday covering it all, from the brand new 50th anniversary character cavalcade to the new nighttime shows Harmonious and Enchantment to the Beacons of Magic to TONS of new food!
But this party is JUST getting started. Today, we got to see the brand new Disney Character Bus — this is the bus that carries Mickey and his friends to the resorts! The bus pulled up to Disney’s Beach Club Resort this morning sporting its new 50th Anniversary look.

More importantly, the characters stepped out of that bus in their new 50th anniversary outfits! There’s Pluto and Goofy! Pluto is wearing his new collar, while Goofy is rocking his EARidescent suit — and check out those gold shoes. WORK it, Goofy!

Pluto and Goofy!
Some guests are going to be pleasantly surprised this morning!
