Just returned from a five night stay at WDW. While the trip was as wonderful as ever, I have a question regarding something that came as quite a surprise. In the peak MK parade crowd level times, the park eased traffic by opening a cast member/ evacuation route path from tomorrowland to one of the main street side alleys. It was rather bizarre (and distracting) to leave the beautifully impeccable main street to be herded back behind to the warehouse like facade and parking lots. It just wouldn't seem like something Disney would ever resort to - no matter the amount of congestion. It seems funny from a company passionate enough to construct an underground tunnel system for characters and cast to magically appear that they would suggest that guests travel that way. Just curious as to this little detour or if it is just the norm nowadays.
