Wow...

Just a newbie (and long time lurker) saying hi from Massachusetts.

My wife and I have 4 kids, ages 5 through 11, and thought we were Disney veterans until we saw about 20 million posts here about everything Disney.

The kids were in the AK parade last May and that seems to be the highlight of their Disney experience so far (other than riding Test Track for 3 straight hours bettwen 9 PM and midnight), although they're telling me that they're going to work on trying to get into another parade when we head down there 2/19 - 2/22, so any tips are appreciated, other than looking for cast members around 11:00-noon and begging profusely.

Other than that, we are happy to have found this place, will hopefully provide some practical insight from anything we find in February, and are looking forward to hanging around for a bit.

Thanks!

And I thought we were lucky to ride in the front of the monorail 2X in a row! I guess, we're easy to please.

Thanks for the well wishes. You know, when you get to WDW, you feel you're entitled to EVERYTHING! Hence, the reason that they don't know the parade thing was extra special! (Heck, they haven't gotten to the front of the monorail yet...maybe that'll be their super special treat this time!!!)

Thanks again!

Alan and the clan

How exciting that your kiddos were in the parade. That was some Disney magic!
