We just got back from WDW (Oct) and we met Peter Pan on the way to Adventure Land. We came around the corner and there were only two other families waiting to meet him. The handler was so crabby, I was really shocked, very un-disneylike. But Peter Pan was so sweet -- cute as a button! My 6 year old son is super shy (and on the spectrum for Autism) and Peter was so kind and took the time to get him into the shot with my daughter. My son is obsessed with Peter Pan so it was a perfect moment -- he really believed it was Peter Pan!!! The photo sequence melts my heart -- and that is why Disney is so very special!!!

It's so nice when you can get almost a private moment like that where there are few other people around. You'll all remember that with fondness when you look back at the pictures.

Hmmm, I'm not sure that she mentioned that it was a CP person portraying Peter Pan. I've actually found some of the CP cast to be sort of on the bored-with-the-whole-job-and-would-rather-talk-with-my-friends side :( But I don't generalize because I know there will be awesome cast members and not-so-awesome cast members that you have to deal with. It's Disney, not autopia...errr, I mean utopia :lol:

Funny...Baloo said you're her favorite character too. But she said it more like this, "That Jacca is such a character" :roll: Not sure what that meant :?

Tiana and Prince Naveen at MK. Both were spot on to their movie characters - Tiana gave me an update on her restaurant and Louie. Naveen talked about the food he was now mincing and things he's progressed to beyond mincing. Naveen even had the accent down perfectly. They were great, and I have some fantastic pictures with them.
