We just got back from a great week long trip. Lots of friendly cast members to interact with. My DS (2) is Deaf, though uses hearing aids and will talk your ear off all day long.
We stopped by guest services in our hotel and they happily printed us out a schedule and list of what's interpreted when at all the parks.
The only problem was, on our one day at MK that matched the interpreter schedule, everything was off. We were thrilled at the idea of getting to ride the Jungle Cruise with an interpreter, DS adores animals and knows the sings for them all,but we waited and waited with no sign of anyone. Chatted with a couple of cast members who thought that was scheduled for the afternoon,not the morning like our print out said. Hmmm. Sad, but no huge loss, we figured we must have just written down the wrong time.
Later, when we got back to the room, I looked at the printout from the hotel guest services. Apparently if you're Deaf you get to time travel. My interpretation offerings included Tarzan Rocks and Cindercellebration! A little out of date maybe?
Lesson learned? Ask directly at the parks and connect with someone early in the day. Just getting info at your hotel isn't enough. (duh)
