We're planning a trip over 4th of July and I saw pictures of a little 4th of July parade at OKW - and was wondering if things go on at all the resorts. I was thinking of staying at AKL - but depending on how good the codes are (if they come out...) maybe a monorail resort...we'd probably get in that day, so I'm not sure we'll get to the parks, so a festive resort would be nice.

Thanks!
 
We were at ALK last year for the 4th.. they did have special activities for kids, not a parade. I think they had crafts and maybe a special story hour? I'll try to search my stuff and post a more complete list.
