I'll certainly will miss this parade. It was a lot of fun.
One of the things I noticed, as a huge Donald Duck fan, was that several character floats (Minnie, Goofy, one other that I can't remember) have some DD items hanging on them. Minnie has a Donald floatie, as does Goofy's float. Not sure what significance this holds, other than "rubber Donald Duckies" being throughout the parade. Maybe someone knows something more about it.
Working for Disney. No, no. Working (in a Modesto office) for (the money to take a trip to) Disney (World/Land)

I'll miss this one for sure. I really enjoyed it on almost all visits to DAK. Even without the big speakers found in the other theme parks the music was still catchy and the floats colorful. I hope that once Pandora opens, they'll begin a new daytime parade.
You didn't mention my favorite part of this parade which was the animal puppet-floats. These were large and colorful animals that were pulled/worn by performers and could interact with the crowd. They were some of the most creative parade units I have seen.
