I personally really liked the parade! My 3 1/2 year old daughter was mesmerized by it all! I love the song, and wathcing her interact with the characters at the hub during the stop brought me to tears! I loved the outfits and all the CM's were so into their characters! It was one of my favorite memories of my trip! It may not be for some people, but there is no way I would give up that parade memory for any ride....
