Holy Cow! Did you see that float?

Anyone see the Tournment of Roses Parade and the Disney Tower or Terror float? (for California Adventure)
That was the most amazing parade float I have ever seen!
I just wish they had spent more time showing the float itself, than the people in the "ride". Great PR on Disneys part. I wonder how much it cost to do that?

Any thoughts?

I saw that..very cool!

DH was just getting out of the shower, I hollered so loud at him he came runing out to see it with the towel around him! LOL

Well, you know........

Some things just shouldn't be missed!

No, I didn't get to see it. Hopefully someone can post a pic here soon though.

Great Float! Did you see California Screamin? That part was good too!

 

[snuggles]

I saw it too. Did you hear them say that the tower had to be let down to get under a bridge near the end of the parade? Can you imagine?

That son "proud to be an American" is on with that Uncle Sam Float. My eyes are tearing up.

There is also a picture on the Disney Home Page - in the center square that changes for choices. They have some fun facts about the float there also.

Happy New Year!

Wow! Thanks!

Very neat! DH and I said the same thing, though...we wanted to check out the rest of the float!

Dh and i loved the float, it was terrific.

FYI for anybody who missed the parade Travel Channel is showing it back to back. The live showing ended at 1:15pm EST so you still have plenty of time to catch its second showing. The float came somewhere around the halfway mark. Well worth seeing

DH and i watched on HGTV. No commercials and a real good closeup of every float.

Happy New Year Everybody

I do believe the first link Dan gave us said that it was float number 41.

Keep your eyes open!
