BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 From the Disney Parks Blog... Parasol Parade at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spaposted on October 3rd, 2011 by Gene Duncan, Photographer, Walt Disney World ResortEarly rising guests at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa can enjoy a cheery parade of over fifty parasol-toting housekeepers on Mondays and Fridays. The tradition began when the Resort first opened in 1988. The Housekeeping Team members gather at 8 a.m. at the marina and slowly stroll through the Victorian courtyard around the pool. What a charming way to start the day!This morning, 5-year-old cousins and resort guests Eva Brackmann and Rachel Pinne had the honor of leading the colorful procession. Joseph Brackmann, 7, captures the special moment, sure to be a special one that will not soon be forgotten.http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2011/10/parasol-parade-at-disneys-grand-floridian-resort/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I was at my station by 8AM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
