whatta bunch of characters

we've been to many a disney park....we've seen many a character...in shows, in parades....and also with LONG, LONG lines for autographs and pictures throughout the parks...

it is a rare occasion that we wait in a line for a photo - we tell the kids to wave, but park days race by, and we don't want to spend our time in a line for a character...

but on the disney cruise...just, you know, walking here or there - holy smokes, it's cinderella!  oh, wait, ariel!  stitch!  donald!   let alone the couple of 'meet and greets' the kids went to, they also ran into characters here, there and everywhere - and it totally made up for any time that they really wanted to see someone and we said 'no'...

here's a sampling :)








and, the 'best' part as a parent - again, i've mentioned the 'interactions' - so much more than you can get in the fast-paced environment of the parks - but, guess what - every time you saw cindy, it was the same cindy...or tiana....or ariel...and while the girls 'know' that they are just people in costumes...when they talk like a princess, and act like a princess, and it's the same princess every time you see them...it starts to feel more real and that much more magical...
