Pixar Pals Countdown to Fun sounds awfully similar to DCA's Pixar Play Parade... in fact, the theme song is Countdown to Fun.. hmmm...
If it is the same or similar, I think it will be a much better fit for DHS. No show stops and water! Way better for the Florida heat :)
I think I've heard that it is quite similar to the DCA parade...so similar, I think I may have heard they were bringing floats from DCA over.
I did like the show stops though. I thought it was an interesting aspect to a parade. (Coming from a non-parade fan). But the water aspect sounds interesting. :)
