Tapestry of Nations

    I have a lot of memories of my WDWCP experience, but I think that the Tapestry of Nations is a cut above the rest. There's a story behind this parade. If you've ever seen it then you know that the parade consists of these giant puppets that swoop down over you and cover you with thier wings. It's a really neat parade.
     Well one night we were watching it and someone mentioned, let's follow the pardae rope and pretend that we're part of the parade. We'll hold our shirts over our head like the puppets and go over to the guests just as if we were a puppeteer.
     Little did we know that we started a weekly tradition. The guests loved it. They saw us dance by and grabbed their cameras and camecorders for one last picture. They cheered and clapped for us. The greatest feeling was seeing the smiles shine on their faces.
     The cast members were really cool about it too. They enjoyed it just as much as we did. It got to the point that we had the parade route mapped out and knew where the stops were. We time our visits so we arrived just at the end of the 8:10 parade. Our route was from the United Kingdom to Morocco.
     This is probably the best picture I have us us performing. I'm wearing the red shirt and blue vest. The music to the parade is very powerful and we all got chills when we heard it blaring over the speakers. I really recommend purchasing the cd Milenium Celebration. I listen to it like 5 times a day, seriously.
