Parasol Parade at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

---

Early rising guests at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort can enjoy a 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 stroll through the Victorian courtyard around the pool.

"This morning (October 3rd, 2011), 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."

"I was wandering around the Contemporary resort grounds and found these posts along the road in front of the main building. You can see the Grand Floridian in the background if that helps with your bearings."

Stormalong Bay at Night

This is one of the nation's largest sand bottom pools.

Stormalong Bay is a beachside water recreation area that offers up 3 acres of aquatic fun for the whole family. Catch currents in an expansive sand-bottomed pool or a lazy circular river, explore the "Shipwreck" and slide down one of the highest hotel waterslides at Walt Disney World Resorts, or simply lie out on the elevated tanning deck and soak up the sun's golden rays. Stormalong Bay's 750,000 gallons of water comprises an impressive complex of pools.
