So we had just done the Safari and it was about an hour until parade time. We really wanted to see Mickey's Jammin Jungle parade since we hadn't seen it since our very first trip back in 2005. No one was really lined up for the parade yet and we didn't want to sit around for an hour so we headed to Camp Minnie-Mickey.
The lines weren't too long. DS8 and I got in Minnie's line.
(for those of you who don't know, DS8 just loves Minnie!) And DS10 and DH got in Goofy's line. Not sure what become of their pictures, but I can't seem to find them anywhere.
Then DS10 and I got in line for Mickey. I thought DS8 and DH were getting in line for Donald, but instead they decided to just take a little break I guess.
Just as we were done there the FOTLK let out. Mass people everywhere. We were wishing we had gotten a spot for the parade sooner. But we did end up finding a great spot on the left right before the entrance to Africa.
Can anyone guess why the kids picked this spot??? And who they thought I was sitting by?
DS10 very discreetly walked out into the parade path and took this picture! 
So we sat next to "Santa" & his family and had a very nice conversation with them. He is somewhat of a Disney expert and talked a lot about pin trading. He was actually a retired elementary art teacher. Very nice man. We saw him the next day at DTD!
On the other side of us was a family with 2 little girls about the boys ages. The 2 girls were going at it like crazy. Whining and fighting.
The boys were staring at them and looking at me like they had never seen anything like it! I took the opportunity to point out to them how ridiculous they look and sound when they do the same exact thing. (which they had just done earlier in the day!) They didn't seem to recall ever acting that way. 
Finally the parade started and it was awesome!!
After the parade was over we made our way out of the park and got in line for the WL bus (where my migraine came on
) to go to our WCC ADR.

Yes, you've got to see it! It's very cute! 
Wow I can't believe you haven't seen it either. We usually miss it because we go to AK at opening and are done by 12:00 or 1:00. The parade is at 3:45. This time we didn't get to AK until about 11:00 and left right after the parade. 
I was thinking the same thing about ZZ Top! 
So I am recommending it to her school, and I suppose that means I'll have to be the organizer 
- I followed your advice of quoting a fall vacation (October 2010 dates), and now sure enough about 4 days later a PIN code! 
So when is the next trip??? 
) WHat is it with me and and Drawers and BEHINDS???????
I bet no one else has had their picture taken with ZZ Top Santa either! 
The kids sure don't think so. DS10 was like -- hey can I hold your gun??
