We had a terrific opportunity to visit the Presidential Suite at Disney’s Contemporary Resort a couple of weeks ago (below, left). The Presidential Suite is on the concierge level (below, right), and overlooks the Magic Kingdom – unlike the Vice Presidential Suite, which has a Bay Lake view.
Mousesteps Denise shares photos and video from the first “Celebrate a Dream Come True” parade at the Magic Kingdom! She enjoyed the catchy new music and thought it was one of the better recent parades – the best since the“25th Anniversary Remember The Magic“Parade!

There are parade stops, but she didn’t see any during the video she took – and the parade went by very quickly (in about 11 minutes). She dashed down to Main Street to take photos near City Hall, and was able to videotape one parade stop with Mickey and Minnie. She will be putting photos on her site soon (once it’s fixed, she’s not been able to add new blog posts for a couple of days now).
Please check back tomorrow for a complete video of this great new Magic Kingdom Parade!
UPDATE: Part 1 of the parade is below.
