July Characters

Here are all the characters that I met in July.










June Character Round-Up

 Unfortunately, I was only at Disney World once in June so I didn't get to meet many characters.

Day Report 41 - Magic Kingdom - October 2012

I got to the TTC but they were only letting in resort guests for EMH. We had to wait a while before they let us in and then I boarded the ferry. I got to MK around 9:00. I headed straight to Pete's Silly Sideshow. I went to meet Daisy and Minnie first and then went to meet Goofy and Donald.

Summer Trolley Show

I was able to watch the Summer Trolley Show last week at Magic Kingdom. It was very good, like all the trolley shows and I really liked their outfits.

Rainy Day Character Cavalcade

I had the opportunity to see the Rainy Day Character Cavalcade for the first time the other day. It was short but cute. It's nice that they're able to do something while it's raining and the Celebrate A Dream Come True parade can't run. I loved how excited Ariel got when she spotted me. She waved, posed, and blew me a kiss. I just wish I was able to get some better pictures of her.

Long Lost Friends 2

Long Lost Friends 2 is taking place at Magic Kingdom from July 15 - July 21. The characters are all located in Town Square and they appear from opening until around 4:00. They come out for twenty minutes and then go in for ten, which is an improvement from last time when they were out for thirty and in for thirty. Just like last time, none of the characters are signing autographs. Instead, you get cards at each location that have their autographs on them. However, you can only get a card if you're on line to meet the characters.

I had heard that the lines weren't nearly as bad as they were at the last Long Lost Friends. I found that to be true but they were longer than what had been reported for the first two days. The longest line was for the Robin Hood characters, the second longest was for the Br'ers, the third longest was for Dr. Facilier and Louis, and the shortest was for Chicken Little and Abby Mallard. The line for the Chicken Little and Abby Mallard location was the shortest when it was just Abby meeting, which happened a few times throughout the day.

I met Chicken Little with Abby Mallard twice, just Abby Mallard once, the Br'ers twice, the Robin Hood characters once, Dr. Facilier and Louis once and then I went back to get a picture with just Louis.

It was rumored that Pete's Silly Sideshow would be soft opening today but unfortunately it wasn't. I took some pictures of the newly open Big Top Souvenirs and the new area outside.

Day Report 39 - Animal Kingdom - September 2012

I arrived at opening and headed straight to Kilimanjaro Safari. I grabbed a fastpass and then I got on line. The line was all the way back to the entrance but the wait wasn't long at all. When I got off, it was time to use my fastpass, so I rode again.

Mickey's America Streetbeat

When Mickey's America Streetbeat was first announced as the Limited Time Magic event for this week, I admit, I was not looking forward to it because most of the Limited Time Magic offerings have not been good. I watched a video of it youtube and it looked pretty good so I decided that I had to go see it.

I was the first person on line for the first show at 12:30. I just lined up early because I knew exactly where I wanted to sit, so I wanted to make sure I got the spot and I did. The show was absolutely amazing and it's one of the best Limited Time Magic events that they've had. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy came out first to welcome us and they brought in their new friends, a group of amazing dancers. The dancers were great and had so much energy. I don't know how they did four shows in a row with a thirty minute break in between. It was also a lot of fun to see Mickey, Minnie, and Donald dancing while Goofy got to play the drums.

I hope they bring Mickey's America Streetbeat back again in the near future because I would love to see it again, even if I did watch it three times in one day.
