Great spots for the parades at MK and AK

We'll be at Magic Kingdom Friday and AK on Sunday. Where have you found the best spots to view the parade to be?

Also- how early do you need to be there to get these spots?

My fav spot for MK has always been on the curb right outside the Emporium - you can shop and look out the window to see if people are starting to arrive. I still sit out there at least 45 minutes before the parade starts. There is usually some interesting characters walking up the street a bit before the parade to talk to as well.

AK - I did the same thing; right outside the store so you can peek out. Not the best place to stand, but if it is a light day, it is easy to watch from the store.
