The major difference costume posted in the picture is that they wreath around our neck did not contain bells and was much fuller. It brings back some wonderful memories. I also was a "cast member" in the inaugural year of the Disneyland Very, Merry Christmas Parade. <br />ZiggySquidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12842578383681434498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-29610477087905611132014-12-18T23:03:49.485-08:002014-12-18T23:03:49.485-08:00K.

I was disappointed to watch "Chitty" not that long ago, and discovered that it was so flawed. I loved it as a child.<br /><br />Bill in Denver, ebola got all the press this year, while the Yips were ignored. Typical.<br /><br />Melissa, aw, I don't like to think of Geppetto with the DT's. He's too nice. Hey, I never thought about how those soldiers resembled Pinocchio!

But don't all Disney parades look just a <i>little</i> bit like the DT's to begin with?<br /><br />All's I know is, by the looks of their Pinnose-ios, those wooden soldiers have been lying to every girl in every port from San Diego to Shanghai. "Oh, no, baby, I don't have Dutch Elm disease - the Army vaccinates against that nowadays!"
