Does anyone remember the light parade that use to take place on the giant lake outside of the magic kingdom. It had a dragon and some Little MErmaid characters and it would go accross the lake and through some of the resorts every night. Is this parade still around?? any of the cst members know? Also did anone ever see Light Magic? How was it?

It is called the Electric Water Pageant (I believe it is still there...well, it was as of February).
I'm not sure what "Light Magic" is...sorry.

The floating parade is still there. I hope it always will be. It docks over at the magic kingdom Storage area. You can see the canal from the monorail.

"Light Magic" was the ill-fated replacement to the Disneyland's MSEP.

Thanks for clearing that up...so it wasn't as good I'm taking it
Do you personally like SpectroMagic as much or better than the WDW MSEP? I myself like it better.

Electrical Water Pageant
Intended as a special goodnight present to all who visited the WDW's Magic Kingdom in 1971, The Electrical Water Pageant was conceived by Bob Jani, who later created the Main Street Electrical Parade for Disneyland and then copied a bit later for Walt Disney World.
The pageant still runs nightly, around 9 p.m. between the Monorail resorts and the Magic Kingdom. It's still a magical show, although many people still are unaware of its' existence.

Light Magic wasn't necessarily 'bad'...it just wasn't a good replacement for the Main Street Electrical Parade. There is rumor of it replacing Tapestry of Dreams next year.
