    Really? Haha

    I find it to be a laughable relic. That being said, it's nice that they still do it I guess.

    One's relic, is another's charm.

It was the most memorable enjoyment for the whole week long trip apparently. Please do not think these children do not have anything else going on in their lifes because they also visit many local educational activities in the Dallas/FtWorth area every weekend.They just loved the Water Pageant as their introduction to DisneyWorld!

    Please remember to consider different age groups before we start sending out more reasons for Corporate Disney to discontinue and disdestroy entertainment.
    Thanks

    We have 9:15 p.m. dinner at O'Hana during our Honeymoon trip in Sept. We'll just miss 9 p.m. fireworks at dinner but looks like we might catch a glimpse of the water pagent!

    Isn't that what the Magic Kingdom park really is? So I guess the Water Pageant will continue to be a nice fit in the old dated resort.
