Mickey Mouse will be floating down the streets of New York this Thanksgiving dressed as a sailor.

Sailor Mickey will be representing the Disney Cruise Line at this years 83rd Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade for the first time ever!

Not only will Sailor Mickey be a balloon at this years parade, his plush toy is available for purchase at all of the Macy’s stores in the United States, as well as online at Macys.com.

Disney has been promoting its Cruise Line a lot lately, especially by adding a new ship to the line, the Disney Dream ship (we have to admit, we LOVE the name!).

Disney’s Cruise Line President, Karl Holz, had this to say about the parade this Thanksgiving: “Watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade with family and friends is an American tradition. We are thrilled to have the Sailor Mickey character join this iconic event and share our excitement about Disney Cruise Line and the new Disney Dream cruise ship joining our fleet in 2011.”

Will you be watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this year?
