Yay some fireworks to start my day!
I think I saw some pics of this meet somewhere. Oh yes I think Pat's report maybe?? Sounds like lots of fun. The kids looked like they were having a great time.
You know when we were there a few weeks ago not once in 8 days did we see security & dogs! DH mentioned it toward the end of the trip that we did not see any & we usually do.
Yes, I think Pat got to that night a few weeks ago.
What I really don't like seeing in WDW is an ambulance. I feel so badly for anyone who has some kind of medical emergency while they are there.
Great parade pictures - just love all those Disney details
Looking forward to seeing a night time Jungle Cruise - not something we've ever done!
Jungle Cruise is a different experience at night!
Loved the Pics they looked great and you must have had a great time I love the parades they are my Fav
-M
We did have a great time, and we enjoyed all the parades.

Do you have a particular favorite one? I don't know that I have a favorite, but I have one that I really miss - Stars and Motorcars.
**********************************************
After all of the gang had arrived - Pat, Elena, Cara, Anita, Jill, me, and our assorted people - we got in line for Jungle Cruise.
Our water taxi.
Our group.
That boat is looking a little lopsided, isn't it?
Then we got a cast member to take a group picture.
One with no flash,
and one with flash.
Wigd and
Shocker had brought a special present for Bella - a mingo for her Christmas tree.
I wanted to get a picture of it, but she suddenly became very protective of it.
In about ten minutes, I would really regret never having met Mingo face-to-beak.
We were going back to Pop, but a part of the group was going to go up in the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse, and Anita was persuading us to come along before we left the park. We decided to join them.
There is certainly a nice view from up there.
But danger lurks among the happiness of that treehouse and that nice view.
Danger to mingos, that is.
A sudden gasp from Jill made my heart sink to my stomach. I thought she had dropped her phone, which was brand new.
She shook her head and said no, it was not her phone, but it was Mingo!
Bella's lips quivered, and she began asking Jill if she would put in her bag. This is what Jill had told her to do before they went up, but Bella would not let go of it. I guess she was pointing at something, and Mingo just decided to take flight.
That was one upset little girl, and Jill and I felt badly that something that had just been given to her by such kind friends was now nowhere to be found.
The rest of our Treehouse time was spent looking down into the tops of trees for Mingo - to no avail.
It was decided that we would stop by Guest Services and make a missing mingo report in hopes that someone, somewhere, some day might find him.
Jill took MSEP pictures while I was inside giving them our information.
Thus far, Mingo has not been located. We think he is having quite the adventure in Magic Kingdom, and if one day he is spotted in a Kingdom Keepers adventure, we'll know for sure he is.
