Disneyland's 25th Anniversary Parade (part 1)

part one of two.

This is one of the rarest videos that I have. This was taped by a friend in 1980, before most people even had VCRs, which is why everything is pink and yellowish.

Once again, you have presented us with a wonderful classic parade and one I have never seen before since my first trip to Disneyland was in 1981. This was the era where parades at Disneyland were classics. Thanks for sharing all your rare Disneyland videos!

Always my pleasure.  This is not the end, there is a whole lot more of these in my collection.

So fun to watch! I was also in this parade as a parasol dancer (front right) at about 6:10. Would love to have a copy! Thanks so much for sharing.

@that1reject - But they're so CUTE!! We were quite sure we were the cutest characters in the parade!! Made the weight, the weird vision, the limited arm movement all worth it. LOL This has been fun, and I'm off to lala land now. If you see Angie anytime in the near (or not so near) future, and you happen to remember, please tell her Gogo says hi! And I hope to see you at the park soon!!! :)

[1dwgogo2]

@that1reject - I haven't been back since that reunion, but want to try to make it over there soon. I'm in AZ now and just don't get to CA very much, but my husband & I keep talking about it. I haven't seen CA Adventure, the "new" Tomorrowland - I'm sure the park is a very different place. Do you know if the Electrical Parade is going to run this summer? I would love to see it again! I'd probably cry!! LOL!
