Disney's Once Upon a Dream Parade

Has anybody know what happened to the Alice float recently?

I looked on several videos of the parade earlier this month and there was no Alice float and there was a whole flock of characters behind the Mickey float inculding Jafar, Alice Characters, Pinocchio, Lilo & Stitch, Robin Hood, Cinderella & Lewis Robinson etc.

Is this a new thing?

The Alice float is in rehab for 3 weeks - it should be back next Saturday. It is the second float to go into rehab - first was the Romance 2 float, and next will be Imagination, so Mickey and co will be walking the parade while the 15th sign is removed and the float is redecorated for Mickey's Magical Party!!

hope "redecorated" doesn´t mean give it some horrible colors all over

3 weeks is a long long time for the float to be in rehab. All those added painting effects on the floats appeared overnight ahead of the 'premiere' a couple of years back. I'm kind of scared about which illuminous shades they'll paint 'Imagination' :S

They may just add streamers and more party-ish things. Maybe balloons from the top of the Hot Air balloon and the moon?

Anyone know if they will be getting rid of Just Like we Dreamed It?
It fits the parade but they may want to re-enforce the party atmosphere.

You mean something like this.......

OMG :shock: That's not a float! That's a bad joke. That thing is embarrassing!

Kris · January 26, 2009, 05:14:08 PM

That float's hilarious

I'm sure the show mode theme will be changed to that party time track. Dreaming has little to do with a magical party I guess

Thats the WDW parade isn't it? If it is there are a lot more issues with their parade than just a silly coloured opening float!

Its only for a year and the rest of the parade is in such a state it doesn't look out of place. At least they have got rid of their "Dreams on Parade" song.

that float is certainly lively!

The opening float, dreams of imagination, is now (as of past monday) in Refurb and Alice's float has returned, completely refurbed. No changes made of course, the effects seem to have been altered though, more smoke effects and scent effects!
Mickey and Minnie now make their entrance in the parade sitting in a Main Street Car, surrounded by some extra characters.

I guess over the next year more floats will be going down during the off-season?

Its worth them going missing for a few weeks just to keep the parade in top condition, its going to be around for many years to come so at least keep it in good condition.

Its such a beautiful parade and hopefully it stays looking as great as it does.
