While posting on the blog I already mentioned in the past that the Cast Members are the hart of the Disney Parks. The same for the Disneyland Resort Paris Cast Members can be said. I have some great memories of all my visits and many of those could only have been created with the help of the Cast Members.

Celebrating 15 years of the park cannot be done without celebrating those Cast Members that have dedicated 15 years of their life to Disneyland. Before the public was invited to see the new “Once Upon a Dream Parade” Cast Members who worked for the mouse for 15+ years paraded down the parade route.

About one hour before this celebration we talked to a CM in the Annual Passport office. He told us proudly (and quit right so) that he worked for DLRP for 15 years and that he will be in the parade. The Annual Passport office was very busy, he almost felt bad going (he had permission to go in the parade during his shift), but said that it was special and meaningful for him to be there. This was a one of, it would only happen once, and he didn’t want to miss it. He was right of course.

The Cast Members paraded down the route, giving candy to the children and throwing confetti. They where cheered and applauded by all, but you could notice where some of the fans and family members where as they really gave it all for these men and woman that have worked her for 15 years or more.

It was a real nice gesture towards the CM’s, and another little special thing I will remember from this trip. To all the Cast Members; thank you for your dedication and your hard work. Thank you for the great times and for putting up with us demanding guest. You truly are the HART of the park!
