I had a couple of character priorities on my solo trip this year - while I've done a couple of character breakfasts on prior trips (CP, Ohana-pre-Stitch), this was the first time I had gotten in a line for meet and greet.
First full day, freezing cold morning at DHS, I stopped for a Photopass photo in front of the Hat so I could get my card, hightailed it to TSM for a fastpass, then it was off to one of my top priorities for the whole trip: meeting Phineas and Ferb! They were just coming out as I was walking up the street toward them, and I was the only one in sight; they were waving, I was waving, I gave my card to the photog (I think I said something to him about having ordered the CD and to snap away). Talk about totally silly awkward adult lady meeting her idols...
I have no idea what I would have said to them otherwise, but it was so cold out, I told them, "You guys made winter in summer - you need to work on making summer in winter because it is WAY too cold out!" They liked this idea. I got hugs and pics, even asked the Photopass guy to take a couple with my camera, too. I made such a fuss over hugging Ferb, Phineas got jealous (I love them both, really, and he got his hug, too). I think there were finally some other people coming up the street when I left. Sorry, didn't mean to ramble so much, but it was a highlight of the trip. I suspect P&F are used to getting a fair number of adult fans.
Even sillier, I got in line and met Handy Manny - Yep, I'm a fan. I thanked him for helping me with my Spanish, and told him to give Pat (the hammer) a big hug for me, because he's my favorite of the tools; Manny was sweet and gave me a big hug. I suspect he's NOT used to getting a lot of solo adult fans.
On a whim, I popped into Town Square to meet Mickey (and Minnie). They were really sweet; I thanked them for making a place where Big Kids like me can have as much fun as the Little Kids, and they appreciated that.
If Dug & Russell are still meeting at AK when I go back, they will be a big priority, because Up is one of my all-time favorites (see avatar).
