A fun way to get down the street is by one of
the Main Street vehicles. You can usually walk it faster, but its
much more fun to ride. Main Street also offers a very good, but
crowded spot to watch the parades. If your can get a curb seat for
the parade it is the "classic" way to experience a Disney parade
(and young kids love it). Also along Main Street you will find several
entertainment groups throughout the day to watch. For the Wishes
Fireworks show we highly recommend finding a spot on Main Street
to view it. We like to be about half way down the block. It allows
for a great shot.
If you want to watch a parade from Main Street(and want a good
seat) you will probably have to show up at least an hour before
it (except for the late Spectro Magic Parade). If you don't mind
standing a row or two back there is no need to show up that early.
A really good spot to see the parades is from up on the train station,
but this means a very long wait for the parade. If your looking
for a Magic Kingdom souvenir, odds are you will find it on Main
Street, to avoid the shopping rush do not wait until the end of
the day to find that souvenir you want because most of the other
50,000 people at the park will wait until the same time to get theirs.
Take some time during the heat of the day to enjoy the airconditioning
and shop. If your staying at a Disney Resort you can have all purchases
sent to your resort for FREE! Its a good service, but take a day
or two to get your stuff.
