Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you are all having a fantastic Sunday with plenty of fun and relaxation. For this week’s installment of Disney Sunday I wanted to write about my favorite parade – Disney’s Electrical Parade in Disney’s California Adventure.
The parade is back this summer big and better than ever. Among the new surprises is the new lead float featuring Tinkerbell. She sprinkles her pixie dust along the parade path and it can be seen sparkling along the sides of many of the floats.
Another fabulous feature is the return of the Pinocchio floats and the Seven Dwarf’s mine float. Both of these went MIA after the parade’s visit to Tokyo Disneyland. If you are a fan of the Parade you will also notice that the music has a new layer on the background and I think it’s better than ever.
We found some terrific seats just outside the Golden Vine Winery facing the Fisherman’s Wharf area, just 30 minutes before showtime. I’ve usually caught it at the entrance of California Adventure and it usually one of the busiest locations to catch a glimpse. If you head further down the parade route there are plenty of seats and in my opinion a better view.
We sat down and waited for a few minutes for the parade and as we waited you could feel the anticipation and excitement in the crowd. There is nothing quite like experiencing the parade up close with the kiddos. My family loved every single minute of it.
I want to hear from you. Do you love the parade? If you do what is your favorite part of it? Where do you usually sit? Would you love to see it return to Disneyland?
The parade is running nightly through August 23, 2009. It’s the perfect excuse to head over to California Adventure. It then will go on a hiatus for a time. Rumor has it that it could wind up back at Disneyland next year as part of the 55th park anniversary. We’ll have to wait and see.
My favorites are the old school characters–like the snails and the turtles. I also like Pete's Dragon because you don't get to see it very often.
Thanks for the reminder to get out there and see it.

I love Disney, too!!! We had the Annual Pass this past year, and we would go for the Morning!! No lines, cool weather, leave and the kids sleep the whole way home… Loved it!!!
The electrical parade is one of my three year old daughters favorites I'm so glad that it is back. We have a great time when we get to stay and watch it.
