Today is Armed Forces Day. Let's honor all Americans who have served and are currently serving in all branches of the military. The Flag Retreat at DL is a fantastic thing......

What is the future of the Maliboomer?
I'm not sure but this is what is in the Model for Paradise Pier.

This looks more like the jumpin jellyfish ride

Celebrate! A Street Party. This is a VERY energic Dance party which is performed in 3 locations on the parade route.

I wonder how the dancers will cope in the summer as they are dancing fast for the full 45 minutes of the route.

Hey Robert TG....how much actual disney music is played in the parade? Do they incorporate Walt's voice into the parade like parade of dreams? Did you like
it? Now on with the Picture of the Day...

KC Mike - I just read about your father's passing in the other post....I wasn't sure where to post my condolences but I guess this as good a place as any?!? Anyway, thanks for sharing your love of Disney with us and keep on doing so, you are so right that life is too short..... And we can all use a little daily dose of Disney magic....

The invitation to come inside to have a sneak peak at the future of California Adventure.

Inside there is a "screening room" with a temporary sign over an older sign that said "Tasting Room". Here they show a very informative 6 minute film which inspires the imagination about the future of the park then there is a 30 second break before the film runs again. Lots of Displays, Drawings, Information, etc... Definitely worth the visit.

Do we just walk inside?? or we actually need an invitation to go inside.

Yes, The Blue Sky Cellar is a walk thru...and no line to get in. Nice and cool inside, great during the heat of the day with seats to watch the film.

Did I like it? I loved it!!!
No, Walt's voice is not in this parade.

There is some origional music for this parade.
It starts with the Celebrate song with is catchy and new.
Then there is some short selections of songs.
Swing Music: "Jump and Jive" and "Jungle Book" music.
The next section is Rock and Roll: With "I love rock & roll" and "Twist again". On to Latin music: "Do you really want it", "Conga"
Party music: "You can't stop the beat"
and finishes with "Celebrate you". All within 15 minutes.
Then starts again.

There are 3 major floats, each with 8 Characters, who Dance along with the 24 dancers and about a dozen colorful stilt walkers and huge tricycles that circulate the characters around near the end of the show.

So, if you would like to see your favorite character, swing dance or do the twist or join them in the conga line, this is your chance.

The Characters dancing in the show are...
(just imagine them dancing)
Mickey and Minnie
Chip and Dale
Lilo and Stitch
Mary Poppins and Bert
Tigger and Pooh
Woody and Jess
Alice and the Mad Hatter
Donald and Daisy
Pluto and Clarice (The Female Chipmunk)
Goofy and Claribelle
Wendy and Peter Pan
Pinocchio and Geppetto

The guide Map shows where the dance party stops, and it is best to be in the area if you want to see the show...otherwise it passes very quickly.
Out the front of the Bakery on Main Street is a good location.
This parade starts either in Main Street going toward It's a small world or starts near It's a small world heading toward Main Street.... and it's important to know which way it is going otherwise you could have an extra half hour wait before it arrives at your location.

OK, Here is a picture of Alice doing the Twist

Yea, the parade is pretty sweet. Short and sweet!
When I went for my birthday on March 31st, I saw it for the first time and was really excited about the new parade! And also about the confetti that was shaped like mickey heads all over the place.
I especially liked the music and dancing.

It is the Jumpin Jellyfish. The latest D23 stuff shows the Jumpin Jellyfish still intact but the SS Rustworthy gone and in its place a patio area for a large restaurant. It is in the way for expansion of the restaurant on the west side where McDonald's was located. It may stay as it can be rethemed and is a kid friendly ride.

Robert TG and PetitePixy - This sounds similar to how the Block Party Bash is...do you or anyone else happen to know if the parade in Magic Kingdom is the same? I thought it was still the same old parade, but with different decorations???

Thanks PigletGurl! I like the part where one of them mentions "He picked me up with his mind powers and shook me like a dawg".

Don't worry.....It's one of my favorite rides as well and I'm 41!
