Disney in Review - The Characters

Aside from the flight, the one thing I was most nervous about was how Ethan would react to the many characters roaming around the Disney parks and restaurants! As early as Easter of this year, he wanted nothing to do with characters of any sort, so I crossed my fingers and hoped that he had gotten over the fear.

As you can see, he most certainly did!



Tigger, Pooh, and friends were the first characters we met at The Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom.  Once I saw his reaction to those guys, I knew he would love the rest!

There's a super sweet story behind this particular meet and greet, which I'll share a little later...


The Fab Five, in their various get-ups...


One of my favorites.  Ethan loves him some Goofy, and this picture totally captures it!




Lightning McQueen and Mater - the longest character line we waited in all week, but well worth the wait!


One of the many lovely ladies Ethan met at Cinderella's Royal Table...


Then, of course, there were the parades with characters galore.  It seemed as if they just popped up out of nowhere, and I loved them! I particularly liked The Main Street parade in Magic Kingdom and the Pixar Parade in Hollywood Studios...



... and I'd say Ethan liked them too!

The characters are definitely the best part...so glad he wasn't afraid so you could get all these pictures! I made my boys meet the princesses too. Ha! And Brody was in love with Minnie just like Ethan! ;-)

I love the character post! I am so proud of Ethan.. I remember how afraid he was of blow up Mickey Mouse Christmas decoration in our yard. Looks like he has overcome that fear!!
