I love seeing CMs with Disney swag. It makes me think that person might really like their job and that just makes me happy.

Mark is an absolute Disney nut glad he's going back to work, it's been a struggle for him and so many others

can I ask where he works? Does this mean more equity members may be called back?

He's a Kembe (Savi's experience) he also is a performer at Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular and the host of DPB live streams.

I think they should enforce physical distancing and make people leave the area if their group does not have a spot but I don’t think we’re looking at a wave of anything. People are outdoors & masked. I think they should enforce it because this is a step towards people dropping their guard and thinking “I was one foot from those people at the parade so I’ll stand where I want in this indoor line”.

Wonder if we’ll see 6” markers pop up down the parade routes & Main street for the holiday calvalcades.

there are markers (green circle spots) along Main Street but not on the hub or town square

Woohoo!!! Florida was removed from Chicago's quarantine list!

I mean, I can't go until next Spring, but exciting nonetheless.

Good to know! I didn’t notice them in early August.

Seems like it's that time of the month again for the fun discussions

They are fairly recent. Not sure when they were put in but they may not have had them yet then.

At least we avoided the m-word debate

Sometimes the idea of just being able to if you want/cam is as exciting as being able to go in itself.

My 14 day quarantine is finally up tomorrow, but I’m awaiting my 3rd test results back before letting myself out. Those should be in tomorrow or Thursday.This wouldn’t have been that tough if it hadn’t been for the gyms in NY reopening while I was in Florida. So its absolutely killed me knowing they were finally open for me to go to, but I couldn’t

Yeah, I didn't say anything to the two people we encountered on two different days while waiting in indoor lines who weren't wearing masks because you never know how someone will react. The first was a guy who was arguing the entire time with the woman he was with and cussing at the child with them. No way am I dealing with someone like that. I was very uncomfortable though and just kept as much distance between him and us as possible. No exits in sight or CM's. I'm getting tested later today before returning to work, which I was always going to do anyway, but people like that are absolutely a risk to others around them.

ugh, that is a tough spot with how they were already acting and being fearful what it could lead to

Not at Disney, but we were in line to get into Ikea last weekend and the group behind us was not wearing their masks properly and not keeping social distance, so I left a gap ahead of me to the rest of my family (to minimize how many of us they were close to) and when others in my family would ask I would passive aggressively say something like "well, the group behind us isn't wearing masks or keeping distance so trying to keep a gap to you"

Does Brooke live down there? I could have sworn her and her husband lived in the Midwest, but I feel like she’s been at Disney/Universal since the reopening

Never said that. It is a line that is repeated on these boards ad nauseam though. Look no further than what was posted literally a minute or two after mine. This country has a mentality of "me, me, me" that gets very tiring.

See, having just been diagnosed with something that needs folks to help me out to stay well, I totally see the opposite happening. Everyone asks what they can do and how they can help. So, I think most folks just forget or don't notice when they "slip up"; it's not on purpose.

I mean, in my area, my kids joined a new group this year that had an outdoor potluck 2 weeks ago. Since it was our 1st time, I let everyone know who I was, and that I needed anyone who had been sick lately to let me know or just meet me next time. To remind everyone, I wore my leukemia shirt. And at that event, which I admit I kept my mask on and didn't eat, b/c this was a potluck and it was WELL-attended, so I was keeping myself safer...well, folks did everything I'd asked for in email. Lots came up to talk to me, but gave me a bit of a bubble, no one was freaked by me keeping masked up, and no one minded I didn't eat (I did get a lot of questions about how I found out I was sick and stuff about the disease, but I'm sure I'll get that forever.

TL/DR - with a vacation parade, I'd chalk it up to excitement and not intent - I'm sure if Disney threw down some temporary chalk bubbles and told folks to stay in them, everyone would have...

So awesome.

We saw them dressed as dinosaurs in Dinoland last trip!

My wife and I had to set up a “human fence” to stop another family from encroaching in every other family’s space at one of the family raft rides in Aquatica last month. DW may not have been as “passive” aggressive as you

I was going to make that point too, but figured best not to.

I agree that I don't think people were purposely being selfish. I think they saw Jack Skellington coming down Main Street in a cavalcade and got excited and forgot themselves!

That's my point about YOU (general) need to be watching out for YOU because moments/situations like the parade will happen. There can't be 100% control all the time.

I'm sure we will see bigger street markings soon.

Yeah probably a couple of weeks ago
