The Festival of Fantasy Parade at the End Gate



The Festival of Fantasy Parade is an afternoon parade performed daily at the Magic Kingdom.  I was able to capture the parade at the tail end of the performance when it was winding down Main Street USA and entering the finish point at the end gates next to the firehouse.  I was fortunate to find an opening on the sidewalk near the gate to film this unique viewing of the parade.  It was cool to see that the performers were still in full entertainment mode till the very end, not breaking character as they were crossing the gates.  Disney does a fantastic job putting on this parade to all the visitors daily.  The video that I filmed showed the parade the way I viewed it from my spot on Main Street USA.

On my first visit to Disney California Adventure in March 2012, I got to see Disney Junior Live On Stage.  The theater is the same as the one that is at Disney's Hollywood Studios.  This show is really entertaining to the kids that watch Disney Junior.  All visitors sit on the floor while watching this.  Below is a video of some of the performances.

The Seas With Nemo and Friends at Epcot - December 2009

The Seas with Nemo and Friends at Epcot
The Seas with Nemo and Friends is located in Future World at Epcot.  It was formerly known as the Living Seas pavilion.  The ride features Nemo from Pixar's animated film Finding Nemo as he travels through the sea and encounters friends and foes.  A lot of the aquarium that was seen in the Living Seas ride is now covered in the present Seas with Nemo and Friends.  Back in December 2009, I took a short video clip of the ride.  Enjoy.



Epcot Fountain of Nations at Night - December 2009

Epcot Fountain of Nations at Night
In the center of Future World is an attraction that is often missed by people passing by it.  The Fountain of Nations transforms into a dancing water display synchronized to music several times during the night.  In my opinion, the best time to watch the Fountain of Nations is at night.  There are special colored lights that illuminate the water effects.  Below is a video of the Fountain of Nations at night.
