I have some friends headed to DL in a couple of weeks. They are staying at the Paradise Pier Hotel and have a Character Breakfast scheduled for before they enter the parks the first day. (I think that makes it at PCH Grill?) Anyway, how do they add the Character Breakfast photos onto their Photopass since they won't be able to get their card and lanyard until they enter the park? Thanks!

I think he photographer gives them a card and they can link it later. I am going to have to do that a week from today at Goofy's Kitchen.

I just did that breakfast a couple weeks ago. They can exchange their voucher at the breakfast. When they bring around the printed pictures to try to sell them, your friends will just hand over the voucher at that point. I pulled out my voucher when the CM started her pitch and she went "Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner." So they do it all the time. She went and got my lanyard & card and added the pictures and brought it back to the table.

Unless they changed it this year, they won't give you a photopass card for character dining for some reason. But it seems others say they will give you your PP+ lanyard there.

That's because they are trying to sell you the photos at the character meals. Who would ever buy them for $30 if they could just get them added to a regular photopass card?

I am glad they finally have the lanyards available at the meals. A couple years ago when we did this they made is get the lanyard in the park the next day and have the photocenter staff retrieve the photos and print them there.
