After a little bit of talk and hustle and bustle.. we got in our float. 1 of the CMs even said something about my eco-friendly TOMS! lol And they were super comfortable the whole time.... until.. (but that comes after the parade)
So I had my camera with me. I started taking pics as soon as the parade started.
That's not me refraining from posting so many pics of the parade. That was all of the pics I was able to take from our camera. My damn battery died!! I was SOOOO angry. Oh well, this gave me more time to wave and smile. lol
We did a lot of waving and a lot of smiling. We had a blast though. Riding in the parade was so much fun.. and definitely not something you get to do all of the time. We felt very lucky to be in it. It was very nice to ride by everyone and have them take our pic.. whispering that we just got married. It was very sweet!!! All of the little girls were looking at us! Love, Love, Love!!!
Here's the Photopass pics that were taken during the parade.
We made it back through the gates and watched the rest of the parade from right inside the gates. After it was over, they gave us some water.. and we all got our items out of the lockers. They also gave us a certificate for participating in the parade, and our Photopass card with our parade pics on it! Very cool.
We took off walking and decided that we were going to go ahead and leave, since that's what we had planned on doing before we got asked to be in the parade. As soon as we decided to do this.. the bottom falls out. I mean it flooded. This was the 1 and only time we got caught in the rain. It sucked. lol That's life though. We stood under an awning for a few mins.. then made our way to 1 of the stores.. where we ran into another family that rode in the parade. haha Everyone was trying to wait out the afternoon showers. We finally just said screw it, and we took off at a very fast paced walk. lol We were still drenched by the time we made it to the exit.
We hopped on the Tram, made it back to the car. This is the point where I realized that it's not a good thing for the TOMS to get wet. They seemed to shrink by 2 sizes. I swear it!! lol And Charley had on his burlap TOMS, which say they're not supposed to get wet... oh well.. you live, you learn.
We went back to our resort, so we could rest up before the DP that night. We both took a nap and a shower. Charley's nap was longer than mine though. lol I sat on the balcony and the couch for a while reading my book (The Help). It was so peaceful!!
So I think that's enough of these long posts for now.
