Day Two Part Four: Time for the Street Party!
I must apologise for the long absence. Life has been busy but my main stumbling block has been with Photopass. There have been so many problems from missing photos, missing magic shot elements, huge technical difficulties that have meant photos have had to be downloaded individually. Disney have responded to the various concerns raised and I have restored photos with extensions. Some photos I have been unable to download and just get a sorry unable to process message. It has been a slow, laborious and downright frustrating experience. Anyway I am back and will pick up from where I left off. I have been on a recent weekend in Scotland which I may come back to at some stage. I am just at the end of our mid-term break. Peter was away in London on a school music trip for 5 nights and enjoyed getting to see Aladdin. After all that this update doesn’t contain any Photopass pictures.
It was now time for the Move It! Shake it! Dance and Play it: Street Party. We decided we would stay and watch it. I mean who needs shade?
Everyone’s favourite chipmunks!
Hi Chip! It’s good to see you again!
The Zootopia characters or Zootropolis (if you're from the UK) were a new addition to the parade!
Yes, we’re ready to party!
Baloo and King Louie stopped by us and came down to dance. There was an adorable little boy with Down’s Syndrome who was having such a great time dancing with Baloo. He was such a great dancer. He was so enthusiastic about shaking his tail feather! Those joyful moments are just what Disney is all about!
Minnie waved down from the float! The little boy came over to Hannah and excitedly pointed out Minnie. Hannah was loving interacting with him.
Before long it was time for the party to move on!
The crowd were encouraged to cheer for the song they wanted for the final song. The choices were: ‘Try everything’ by Shakira, ‘Better when I’m dancing’ by Meghan Trainor and ‘Stitches’ by Shawn Mendes. They announced "Try everything by Shakira" as the winner and then floats moved on this song.
Goofy made sure he got a selfie!
I have such good memories of this parade over the years. It doesn't feel so long ago when my own little boy showed a similar joy to dancing with the characters. His favourites were Chip and Dale.
Here's Pete rocking with Dale and Hannah. Yes those were the days where she had matching High School Musical socks, t-shirt, sunglasses.
I love this photo of Peter running along waving to his friend Chip!
Pointing out his Chip pin on his lanyard!
