  • They paired the visit with sightseeing in San Francisco and personal nostalgic stops like the Full House house.
INSIGHT

Museum As Family Love Letter

  • The museum reads like Diane Disney Miller's love letter to her father and reveals Walt before the suits and success.
  • That personal context deepens appreciation for the parks and makes Disney vacations more intentional.
ADVICE

Don’t Narrate While Touring

  • When visiting, avoid narrating or recording commentary while walking the galleries out loud.
