Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Disney proudly presents...

the Main Street Electrical Parade!

So they were bringing the Electrical Parade to the Magic Kingdom this summer. And before they opened it, they showed it to all the cast members first for the official Cast Preview. Luckily I had work off that day, we showed up to the back lot of MK (aka: Magic Kingdom) and they bused us over to Toontown, where they crowded us in like sheep in a pasture.

Then they had to wait until the park was completely emptied of all guests before they could let us loose. We were then herded by cast members through the park and literally lined up down Main Street. That was actually pretty nice because we were actually able to get a seat to watch the parade right in the middle of Main Street.

When the parade started, I could not pick a better crowd of people to be around! Everyone was crazy cheering! They were so excited for the people in the parade and they were so supportive. Everyone clapped and cheered, even though some people messed up steps or lights on costumes or floats stopped working. Even on one occasion when a float stopped moving and they had to bring a tractor to pull the float out, every one clapped and cheered the driver on. We cheered so loud for the tractor and cheered on the driver of the float. As they were bringing the float out, a lady in the Float yelled, "Oh you guys are so cute!". It was exciting

It was so much fun to do that with my roommates and it was so great to be surrounded by that overly positive energy that only Disney can make. I'm seriously in my element. Time is moving WAY too fast here.
