i remember another one! i think it was last summer or something like that. anyways... i was in toontown on the line to see minnie, donald, and goofy. i was the last person to go in the room, so after me they closed the door. after minnie said hello to me, she went on break, then donald went on break. then it was just me, goofy and the photographer. so after i took a pic with goofy, he got down on one knee and took my hand and proposed to me. it was so funny/cute/adorable... i was so nervous when it happened... i just also kind of freaked out at the time... i shook my head no and said i was sorry... he seemed sad, but it was definately a memory i'll never forget...

Our best character experience was with Wendy at the CRT breakfast. She was very quick witted and funny. Thank goodness we got it all on tape. She spotted us later in the day from atop the float she was riding on during the afternoon parade and gave us a special wave. Thanks Wendy for the great memory.

Well I got quite a few to with 6 different characters in differebt times. My first one will have to be Belle.

BELLE

It stated in June 20, 2006. I had just gotten myself a Belle Piggybank and my mom had call me to met her by POTC ride. So I when over to her and see what she wanted. She had told me she wanted to go on it. I told her ok I didn't want to go on it so I had ask my mom if it was alright if I go see Belle by the Castle. (This is at Disneyland by the way.) She told me ok. So I when over to were Belle was I had my piggy bank in my hand and in line waitting my trun to have her sign my piggy bank that look like her. As I was getting close to her I had took out my camera. So I was the next person to go up and see her. As I took one step Belle had look at me and said. "You look very familiar to me I have seen you before." When she said that I was very shock cause out of all the people she meets every day she had to remember who I am. I told her that maybe because I have gotten about 6 different pictures of you in the past. She then ask me. "You come to Disneyland alot do u." I told her at less once a month. She then said that is proplly why I have seen you before. So she did sign my piggy bank and I got my picture taken with her. After I got it I told her goodbye. As I started to walk away it hit me that I never told her my name. So after she got done with the last kid in line she was hitting back to the back. I told her sorry but I forgot to tell u my name. So I said to her. Hi! My name is Jeffrey, then Belle said to me in a joke hi Jeffrey I'm Belle and we both laugh about it. So after that me and my mom when home and when I got home I when thought my photo album with all my pictures from Disneyland to see if I can fine the same Belle. As I did I did fine her. This was the same Belle that was over at Ariel's Grotto on Jan. 2006 for my birthday. So what a day I had. Next is Snow White.

Snow White

This starts on Oct. 28th 2006.
I had gone over to DCA to get some pictures taken with the villans that was over there. I was starting to get hungery and right across from were Capt. Hook & Ratchiff were was Ariel's Grotto. So I had my lunch over there. As I was starting to eat all the Princess was coming out. First was Ariel we had talk for a few mintues then Jasmine came out she saw my Capt. Hook shirt and told me that both Hook and Jafar are best friends. I told her that Hook is one of my favorites. She told me that I should have a villan as a favorite. I told her don't worry cause I like Genie alot more then Hook. She gave me a smile and said it was nice to met me. So then Princess Aurora came by we talk for a few then Belle and then Snow White came out and when she got to my table she said to me. I know you you been here a few months ago I told her yes I was. I told her that she was the 2nd person to have remember me. She ask me who was the first. I told her by point my finger at Belle. But of choice the Belle that was there that day wasn't the same perason. Snow White told me. "Well you know there is only one Snow White." I told her joking. Yeah I know all the other Snow White's I have met are fakes. She just laugh. So I had got my picture taken with her again and as she walk away it hit me send this Snow White remember me it be nice to get her autograph. So I had got up from my set and I was going to her and the waitress saw me and said I will get Snow White back for you. So I when back to my table and as soon as Snow White got done with her other guess she came back to me and said. I though I her your voice saying that u forgot to get my autograph. So of choice she sign it.

Here is a up date on Snow White. I when to Disneyland on Jan.20th 2007 for my birthday and I when to Ariel's Grotto again for lunch and to see if the Same Snow White was there. And yes the same Snow White was there. I didn't say a word to her I just show her my picture of her and me from the last time and she sign it and said it again I remember you again. I ask her if I told her my name she told me that I didn't. So of choice I did. So nowyou could say I got my very own Princess and friend Snow White.

Mad Hatter & Alice

This happen on Jan. 20th 2007

Before you say it no they didn't know who I am. But what happen was. I had on my Mad Hatter hat and I was waitting for the Parade of Dreams to start. As it was going on the float that has Mad Hatter and Alice on it. Mad Hatter spotted me with my hat on. He was pointing at me. He was doing his lines from the Parade but he added some more to it it when something like this.
"No room No room exsept for maybe him." Mad Hatter was pointing at me when he said that and then Alice said. "He's imposter" Hatter gose. "I know, what's imposter." I just love that when that happen. And now for the last one.

Cinderella

I when over to were Cinderella was to get her picture taken in her winter outfit. (By the way this also happen on Jan. 20th 2007.)
It was my trun to get my picture taken. I handed my camera to a castmember as I did I hear Cinderella call Hello my Prince Charming. I was like shock. So these are about all that has happen to me.

Several years ago when my son was 3 (he is 12 now) we were at the Judges tent to get autographs from the princesses (Bell, Cinderella, Suzie and Pearla). We were the last ones in the room and the 2 princesses started talking about how cute my son was and Bell gave him a kiss on the cheek-leaving a lipstick mark on his face. Anyway, he got really embarrassed and later told us he didn't like Bell very much b/c she kissed him. Every time we go back, we ask him if he wants to get Bell's autograph, and he always says no.

How cute. I wish Belle, Ariel or Princess Aurora will do that to me. Maybe one day he will change his mine. After all he is almost a teenager.

May 2006 was our first trip with our kids, and we had two really great interactions with characters. The first was a series of interactions with Snow White. We met her at the Toontown HoF, and she gave my 3yo son a perfect, blood-red kiss on the forehead. He was in a daze the rest of the night (great picture!) We then saw her again during lunch at the castle on our last day. When she came over, I told her my son was smitten with her, and she knelt down in front of him and they just stared at each other with this loving look in their eyes. He still says how he "fell in love with Snow White" to this day! The other memorable experience was with Wendy in Town Square. No one else was in line to see her, the kids walked right up, she sat down on the floor, my son plopped right down in her lap, and they all chatted like best friends! My daughter had on a Tink hat, so of course that came up in conversation. Those memories will stay with me always, and still bring a tear to my eye!

The best costumed character experience that I have ever had was when Tigger took me around the park and was skipping with me dwon Main Street. Now this Tigger was really awesome because he spent about 15 minutes with me and that totally made my trip magical. After we skipped down Main Street and back he took me over to the popcorn stand and was goofing off with me and the popcorn man and then we finally did the autograph and photo. The other one was when I met Captain Hook. He was doing meet and greets by the POTC ride and he took me down to the boat of the ride and rode the ride with me. It was a very magical trip that year.

My best character experience was two weeks ago with Eeyore. Eeyore is my favorite character of all time and right before I met him, I had just bought a small plushie dressed in safari gear at Animal Kingdom. I was carrying it around and when Eeyore saw me, he shook his head and put his head in his hands and motioned for me to come over. He took the doll from me, kissed it and then posed with it for our picture together. It was adorable.

I'm a 39 year old woman, but that made me feel like I was 6 years old again! I loved it!

In 2005 my then 12 yo son and I were waiting in front of the castle for the "Kiss Goodnight." It was after hours and all the characters were leaving for the night. Well, Chip and Dale stopped and wondered what we were doing and then they began tickling my son and bugging him for a hug. At 12 years old he was not interested in hugging characters so he began to walk away, of course they pursued him. It turned into a full chase around the hub, I kept telling my son he he would just give them a hug they would leave him alone, eventually he did. It was the most magical 5 minutes, I loved it and got it all on video. Unfortunately, we were robbed on our way home from WDW a few days later and my tapes were all stolen .

We are celebrating that son's birthday when we go in May, maybe my two favorite trixie chipmunks will do something else fun to him

We made our own autograph books, and my twins placed Buzz LIghtyear stickers everywhere, and made sure the first page was all about Buzz. This was not lost on the CM who was playing Buzz Lightyear, who made sure everyone saw that he was #1. He made the biggest deal in the world out of our home made books, and our boys were so happy and proud. He also spent about three times as much time with our kids as everyone else (did I mention they were wearing Buzz hats and Toy Story t-shirts?).

[RockinRollercoasterGal]

i have so may good characte memories but just a couple stand out.
One time was my last trip in May of 06. me and my family were having a character dinner at the Liberty Tree tavern in the MK. We had seen Pluto and Dale and minnie. We were waiting on goofy and chip to come around. we were about half way through dinner when chip came and we took our pictures. The one he took with me he held out his arm as if escorting me. Chip left and goofy came around. Goofy started dancing with me as if to say "Look at me Chip I'm dancing with her!" Chip saw and didn't like it very much. he came around pushed goofy away and gave me a kiss. Then goofy got back and they 'fought" over me. Chip ended up winning and now we are going steady.

The other time was 2 years ago and it wasn't a character. it was the person who opens the front doors for your at The Haunted Mansion. So usally they have staions. Well at the door my brother gave him a hard time so he followed us into the stretching room and switched places with that person. he managed to get al the way across the room without us noticing, got to my brother, dragged him away from us and to the exit door. when the door opened he took my brother all the way to the front of the line and was talking to the people who load you onto the ride. He then came back for the rest of us and instead of giving our brother back he rode with my brother in the dunebuggy. My brother later said he just sat there satring at him the hole time. It was the best thing that has ever happened. It taught my brother not to mess with Haunted Mansion people ever again.

I have a couple from P&P.
#1- One of the top things I HAD to do was meet Lady Tremaine and the Stepsisters. It was worth the whole party meeting them. They were soooo hysterical. They made fun of anyone dressed as Cinderella (not in a mean way), they sang happy birthday VERY off-key (I am surprised that people on Main Street, heck- the TTC, didn't hear them), they fawned over all the guys (including my friend's boyfriend), and they asked another friend why she was dressed as a sushi platter (she was dressed as Ariel in the Village dress). It was great!

#2- One of the other top things was (of course) meeting Jack Sparrow. He was amazing. He knew my name and knew that we had "met" before. I got the best picture of him holding a goblet and complaining that the rum was gone. All in all, the characters were great at the party. I hope Disney does continue them in August.

I am a 5-yr breast cancer survivor and I am NEVER w/o my pink ribbon lapel pin given to me by my mamma (now deceased) on the day of my surgery. On past trips, I'v had at least 1 or 2 characters gesture towards my pin letting me know they know what it means...Thank You! We also, in '05, recoreded the longest Mickey hug in history! Our 2 yr old nephew @ Chef Mickey's breakfast. Almost 2 minutes! And Mickey didn't even try to pull away. Just kept on hugging until nephew was done and the he honked Mickey's nose just for laughs!

One of my friends is "friends" with Woody and I saw this little boy came up with his woody costume on and pulled his little toy gun and and shot woody....Woody grabed his heart and fell on the gound, then the little boy came and sat beside him and said "Woody, get up, you have a snake in your boot" It killed me, it was so funny!

[joanna71985]

Kristi, your post just reminded me of one. When I worked with Buzz in Tomorrowland, sometimes he would take an arrow out with him. He loved seeing anyone with anything Buzz on. And when he saw someone, he would point the arrow at the item with Buzz. So funny.

[BellewanaB]

Ok, Ok...may be I have unreasonably high standards but I have seen some CRUMMY Belles! Absolutely NO facial resemblance what so ever and no personality! Storytime with Belle is another story.

I did bump into a Mary Poppins who when I requested "super" backwards she turned around and proceeded to recite the version we all know best! I still chuckle over that one.

In fur I always have the best luck (and the best pictures) with Chip and Dale.

My favorite expierence was at the Diamond Horseshoe when Woody and Jessie were there, It was around this time last year.. Right when they came out from backstage Woody was giving Jessie a piggy-back ride across the stage, it was so cute. Then when it was our turn the attendent yelled, Andy's coming, and they fell to the floor like they do in the movie, then we had to go wake them up by pulling on their string! it was so much fun!..

My Epcot favorite story is when I saw Goofy playing fetch with Pluto!
