Not sure if it was the weather or what but Disney did not deliver as many characters as usual this year!
In fact by my count there were only half as many out for the full and at least 10 less for the half.
There were some rare characters though....For the half-marathon, Phineus and Ferb were out as well as Bowler Hat Guy, Wilbur and Luis from "Meet The Robinson's" although these two groups were rotating so most runners saw either or. Also Louis the gator from "Princess and the Frog" was out and he did sign, if you were crafty enough to run with paper and pen. Donald and Mickey also sported new looks for both races. They were in golf attire, very cool!
For the marathon there were actually very few characters out, very dissapointing. The rare ones included Louis, and a couple of reindeer from the Christmas parties.
Of course I may have missed some. I will post a complete list when I have time. I will also post a complete character report tommorow night.
This year had fewer characters than ever. Although that was dissapointing I still had a great time. Joanna, Like2workout, did you have fun?
