Friday, August 29, 2008
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Swimmer Michael Phelps celebrated his Olympic gold medals with a parade at Walt Disney World. Disney spokesman Gary Buchanan says the swimmer, who took home a record-breaking eight gold medals from the Beijing Games, rode through the Magic Kingdom with Mickey Mouse in a red convertible on Friday morning as part of the "America's Homecoming Parade" at the park. Phelps was also honored with Disney parades after the 2004 Games. Phelps has been busy since Beijing. He has announced he'll write a book about his road to Olympic history, plans to host the season premiere of "Saturday Night Live," and will be a presenter at the 2008 Video Music Awards in September. On Thursday, Phelps was in New York City, filming a cameo for the HBO series "Entourage."
