I just want to know what happened to MK's version of the parade. Last I heard, it's been sitting in storage in Hong Kong.

The parade involved a lot of CM and eliminating the parade and closing MK at 10 cuts down on the overhead. My grandkids loved the EP so I did not want to see it eliminated. All of these cuts and our ticket prices for our trip in June 2018 went up 9%. Not sure what is happening at Disney-doesn't appear to be for the benefit of the patrons.

No it's not, that's what bothers me the most, I can be a car payment ahead for the price of a park hopper.

You can be a number of car payments ahead by not going at all. Your life isn't dependent on your going to a Theme Park. If you cannot afford it, then just like I had to sell my Cadillac and get a VW, we make adjustments to fit our financial situation.

I can afford it, but with the prices going up I want to be drop dead impressed with improvements.

Well, then be impressed and proud that you can afford to do something that millions are not able to do. That way you can be impressed with yourself and realize the mind blowing improvements are not the catalyst for higher prices, especially in an activity not required to continue life. It is what you are willing to pay. That's their price, it's your choice to be there, no one is starving in your family because of the money spent, all is good. Why even mention it?

I can understand that the prices are going way to high, but, that is only in relation to myself. They have practically priced me out and I don't even stay onsite. Haven't for years. Still when I am able to scrape together the money to go, it never crosses my mind that I shouldn't be impressed with what I see because it was what I saw before that brought me back. Improvements are nice, but, not necessary, within reason. They did let it go way to long without making changes. They are doing that big time right now, so I will wait now until there is enough new to see that will warrant that expense. My problem is that I'm getting pretty long in the tooth, so I must also hope for good health to allow me the new experience.

They could make night lights out of the individual bulbs and sell them for an outrageous price. Then maybe they could afford a new parade.
(FYI, I like the Electrical Parade. I even bought the sound track and play it in my car...)
