Still miss the Electrical Parade....this pic is from the last time we saw it.



What parade is your favorite?

more from my b/w day

celebrate!

Pixar Parade

Disney's California Adventure has a real parade (unlike the "street party" thing happening at Disneyland).  It's cute.  The kids love the characters and the little ones go nuts over all the bubbles.

This one creeps out girl1.  

Still Celebrating

Here are the promised character pictures from Saturday's trip to the parks.   I really like the way the Peter Pan one came out.   Let's hear it for zoom lenses!  =D

not sure Mickey should ever wear hoodies.

Celebrate!

It was obviously meant to be....a post about the Disneyland non-parade.   I'm not really a fan of the celebration thing but I couldn't escape it yesterday--no matter when I hit Main Street, it was there.  So I finally gave in, found a spot, and played with my camera.  I'm trying to get over my fear of the manual focus

Here are the "balloon" characters.   Tomorrow I'll show you my favorite pics of the other characters in the "parade/celebration/block party/whatever it is."  

why does dale always look a wee bit tipsy?

sad day.....

Disney's Electrical Parade (formerly Main Stree Electrical Parade) is heading east at least for the summer.   World of Color is expected to be such a huge draw that the folks at Disney have decided there is no room for it at California Adventure.   (Many locals think it should make it's way across the plaza to Disneyland, but we have no power here....lol)    So Disneyworld gets to enjoy it this summer and we have to find time in the next few weeks to relive the magic before it goes.

Last summer, my friends and I made a special evening trip to catch it.

We staked out an excellent viewing location:

and oooh'd and aaaaw'd like a bunch of tourists when it came around the corner.
