Main Street USA

On a very recent one day trip, my husband and I popped into the MK to check a shop for something on the morning we were leaving. Anyway, this is the first time I've ever seen that whole caravan coming down Main Street USA in the morning. These dancers ride down the street on a trolly and they get off here and there to dance and sing about Main Street USA. I have that bit about "clang clang clang went the trolly, ding ding ding went the bell, tug tug tug went my heartstrings..." stuck in my head.

ANYWAY...My point was that...How can anyone not smile and be happy after that? I know it might be a little corny, but it's such a nice way to welcome everyone to the park. I enjoyed it a lot.

We've never seen this. Sounds great. Does this take place first thing in the morning?

When I was a little girl, my Dad used to sing this song and dance around the room with me in his arms. I ran into this with my daughter in December, and started singing and swinging her around. She wasn't feeling well and we were on our way out of the park, but I couldn't help myself from stopping. I called my Daddy that night from the hotel to tell him. Brought back so many wuuunnerful memories!

GCB - it happens throughout the day. I'd check your guide for it, but I think it's listed as "throughout the day" kind of thing.

My bizarre thinking is that if I get a good workout in everyday, I can EAT anything I want! With all the yummy buffets, I will be racing the monorail....ahhh!chocolate!:D :)

My wife has the same philosophy. She makes the kids get in the stroller whether they want to or not and then she ZOOMZ around the parks trying to se everything! Hey jsut as good as weight training and aerobics:)

HEY! That is weight training and aerobics! I have a 45 pound 3 year old and a 27 pound 16 month old. Lifting, pushing and carrying them has given me my massive muscles.:laugh

Your wife has the right idea! She is getting a full body workout and enjoying the scenery. Better than the treadmill!
Maybe we could start a "Stroller Disney Derby".:) :)
