Where are good spots for viewing the afternoon parades in the MK, AK and MGM? Thanks!!
 
I like the end/beginning of the parade near Splash mountain -

well not near - but it is pretty close - across the street near the restuarant that I don't remember....

for Studios - I liked the area over in behind - Indiana Jones - I don't know if it still goes here.

AK - haven't seem it - but I have heard that Africia is the best because you get to see it twice.

the parade route is on the maps that you are given when you enter the parks
 
For the MK parade I usually sit outside of Pecos Bill Cafe. That way I can get something to eat and if you're lucky you can get seat on one of the planters and still be able to see everything, not to mention the floats that stop and perform usually stop right by the Cafe. At MGM I sit on across from the entrance line for Indiana Jones. It is right by the statue busts of famous people such as Jim Henson....Again it is a place to sit and something to look at while you wait, not to mention no one is in front of you! For the AK I also heard that somewhere in Africa is the best.
 
I would suggest not sitting towards the front. The stage is up off the ground and little ones will have a hard time seeing, especially stuff at the back of the stage. In the center section on an aisle would be a good area. Also, it's not necessary to be first in line. The people in the front of the line are sent over to the far right section in the front.
