The Orlando Attractions Magazine Blog has some wonderful pictures from the new "Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade," which started this weekend at the Magic Kingdom. This replaces the Dreams Come True Parade that had been running for quite a while. Be sure to check out the photos over at Orlando Attractions Magazine -- they are really good!

This new parade includes a cast of Disney characters, stilt walkers and other performers that processes down Main Street, U.S.A. toward Cinderella Castle to high-energy tunes. Five floats decked out as gift-wrapped packages are part of the procession, and near the castle, Mad Hatter, Genie, Lumiere and Sebastian – the life and light of the party – pop out of four huge boxes. They join about a dozen other Disney characters headed by Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse to mix and mingle and dance in the street with Magic Kingdom guests during a 12-15-minute party scheduled to take place three times daily.
