Good morning all! Here is a photo of one of our friends we took to disney in January. He was stunned to be having breakfast with "The Duck".

While we were havng breakfast, I noticed a mother and her son next to us, and she was taking all of her pictures with her cell phone. I started taking some photo's of her son with the characters and right before we left. I told her I had taken some good ones of her son and if she gave me her e-mail address I would send them to her. Thats when I discovered it was there second day there and her camera had gotten broken the day before and she couldn't afford to buy a new one. She was so happy I had gotten picture, she almost cried. It made my day to give her some memories!

That's a great story, and what a great photo of her kid with the big cheese!

Your friend up there looks pretty funny, too! Did he eventually loosen up? Wink

Oh he was fine. We had a great time with them. Going back in January with them. I can honestly say I think the trip with them was the best vacation I have ever had. They are just like us. We have known them for years, but really only started hanging out together in the last 5 or 6 years. just since we got our new house really. They had only been to WDW once, and they were only in the park for a few hours. When we took them down this past January, it was 30 years to the day since they were there. You can't imagine the look on there faces (well maybe you can!) when we got into the Magic Kingdom. Dell, the wife, cried everytime we watched a fireworks show! We turned them into disney maniacs.

I think Disney needs some sort of program where we get a cut of the profits every time we convert people into Disney maniacs! Wink I've done it a few times, and I want payment!

I like taking shots of the CM's too! Seem like they are really happy if not surprised sometimes when I want their picture.


And then these two goof balls got in the picture!

I'm always reluctant to take pictures of other people's kids. They can get so weird about it.

At first, I wasn't intentionally taking photo's of the little boy, I was just getting the characters and he was in the shot. When I saw the mother getting a little flustered with her cell phone camera, thats when I started trying to get some good shots of her son with the characters, i'm just glad I did.

I'm glad you did, too! I can't imagine having the camera break on the first day of a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. Sad

We had never seen Rabbit before till this particular encounter. So we made a bee line to get a picture with him.

But around the corner, you do get to see a topiary of him. Smile

I don't think I've ever seen Rabbit before either. I'd probably want to get a picture with him too!

Has anyone else seen Rabbit? That's a good one for the rare characters thread.

DHS has the best streetmosphere characters of any park, I think. Though I do like the music teacher in MK.

I missed this when it was posted! I don't think I've ever seen Goofy in a red shirt -- and MIckey and Minnie are in clothes I've never seen before, too. What celebration was this for?

This was the rededication ceremony during Disneyland's 50th Anniversary. You can watch my video of it here:

Is that over in Camp Minnie Mickey? I think that's one of the best spots to get character photos -- usually pretty empty comparatively.

I love this! I saw Belle and the Beast sharing a quite moment in the World Showcase. No handler...no line of kids waiting for an autograph...
