The cruise did a good job organizing the character meets. When we boarded the ship we were able to go pick up tickets to go to the princess meet (Cinderella, Tiana, Belle, Snow White) and to meet Anna and Elsa. We lucked out and got to tickets for the next morning back to back. We spent no more then 30 minutes with each group. It was nice; especially a nice surprise to have Anna and Elsa on the cruise (took away the need for me to wait over an hour at Disney)
As for Mickey and his Friends, Tinkerbelle, Captian Hook and Peter Pan, we had to wait in lines. there were no tickets. Luckily Rob and I were able to tag team these meets and I waited in line while he took them to sign up for the kids club, to meet another character or while we woke them from naps to join me in line after :) It wasn't too stressing meeting these characters but it was constantly on mind mind with when/where/how we were going to do it.
But the girls were in complete awe. And it was completely worth it. Abby was hilarious! She would point, saw "ahhhh!" and start rocking back and forth. Her mouth would drop open and she'd get so excited. Later when we'd pass by the area we met the characters she would remind us of them. We thought she was too young for this but she was 100% in on it with the big sisters :) Until we got close. Then all she wanted to do was have Daddy or Mommy hold her. She did warm up to Tinkerbelle and Pluto a bit :)
All 3 girls ALWAYS had their autograph books out and ready with their sharpie! SO exciting!!!!!
Captian Mickey
Beach, Pirate and Sail Away Minnie Mouse- Minnie was super fun. She would twirl the girls, try to tell them she liked something they were wearing, told them she LOVED her picture in her autograph book and tried to love on Abby. She spent the most time with them out of all the Mickey and Friends. She is also the one we saw the most.
Pirate Donald
Pirate Daisy
Pirate Goofy
Pluto (We saw him very late after a show on the last night. I told the girls if they got ready for bed we could go to the farewell performance that Abby and I saw while they were napping. I told them they might get to meet more characters. They cooperated immediately!) I didn't get a picture of it but Abby meet Pluto that day while the big girls were napping and she loved him. She leaned into him, kissed him on the nose and smiled. She spun around and fell to the ground. Abby couldn't stop laughing. Pluto became her favorite at that instant and whenever we'd ask her where she kissed Pluto she'd point to her nose! I forgot the camera in the room during that show (didn't think we'd get to meet characters) so unfortunately don't have Abby in a picture with Pluto or Chip and Dale.
Chip and Dale
Princesses- they were super excited to meet the princesses and came dressed as their favorite! This meet felt a little rushed by the staff so unfortunately we didn't think to get family pictures for Abby to be in it. She met them but didn't pose for pics :) Later in Disney she gets pics with some :)
Tiana
Belle
Cinderella
Snow White
Tinker Bell- Abby actually walked up to Tinker Bell. When Tinkerbell knelt down to say hi, Abby quickly gives her a kiss on the cheek. It was priceless.
Peter Pan
Captian Hook- We were taking to long to get to him, he got "impatient" and stomped his foot really loud. The girls thought this was silly.
The best part of it all....
Anna and Elsa!!!!!
