Hi!!!!!!! I'm a HUGE Tapestry fangirl!!! I love to hear people's stories and memories from watching this amazing parade! So what are your memories from it?
Mine is, when I was 4 years old in 2002, I got to see the parade. I wasn't that much of a parade person then, but I liked the music and I fell in love with the Diskman puppet. (I liked his dreadlocks). I called him Noodle Man because I thought his hair looked like noodles. Then after we came home, every time we passed a car dealership place, I saw one of those inflatable noodle things, and thought of Diskman. I kept listening to the music through the years, but not remembering where it came from. When I went in 2010, we were eating at the restaurant in the UK pavilion waiting for Illuminations, when suddenly, I heard the music barely playing. I paused and tried listening to it, then got my mom's attention and said, "Hey, that's from that parade that used to be here!" I never knew the name of the parade, until in 2011 when I was in the gift shop at the American pavilion, and saw the CD. When I saw it, I gasped and just stood there, because the CD had a picture of Diskman on it, and I recognized the parade. I realized it was called Tapestry of Dreams. When I got home, I listened to the CD, but thought it sounded dumb because of the kids saying "I dream of riding on a dinosaur!" etc. Then I found a video of the parade on Yotube, and realized how amazing it was. Then I got addicted. I watched every video I could find and I discovered the Tapestry of Nations version music, so I downloaded that and the Dreams version music. Now I listen to Tapestry music every day, and whenever I do, I feel like dancing. It's just so beautiful!
We la, oh we la we la.....
