Belle at Akershus?

[webcreatrix]

Is there still a photo opportunity with Belle at Akershus? I noticed on the Disney Food Blog the photo package was no longer part of the ADR. Does this just mean there is now an additional charge for photos? What if you have Memory Maker?

Also, any details on changes to the cold buffet?

We were there in March- There was a photo opp with Belle but they no longer give you a physical photo. It does show up in your account if you have memory maker.

1) There are no photo-pass (Memory Maker) people within eateries.
2) Take your own camera or phone.

You still get. Photo taken with Belle, but you don't get the physical copy. If you have MM it will show up there, though.

As posted, same photo op with Belle it's always been, with a Photopass Photographer in place. No printed photo to take is the only change.

The changes to the cold buffet were temporary. It now back to it's normal self (at least for Breakfast, we went last week)

Not sure what you mean. We had PP photos with Santa Goofy at Minnies holiday dine, Belle at Akershus, and Cinderella at CRT.
For the characters coming around to the tables we had to take our own photos, but that's always been the case.

But did they give you a physical copy of your picture that day to take home with your or did it just appear as a digital copy on your memory maker account?

You used to get an actual copy but this year they stopped that novelty.

Maybe this is the difference now and what they mean by "no photo package"?

Yes that is what they mean by no photo package

FWIW, we were there on December 1st for breakfast and got Aurora, not Belle. No keepsake photo but PP for our MM. Princesses that day visiting tables were Mulan, Snow White, Ariel, and Jasmine (Ariel was the best).

We were there in October and we posed with Belle and got a photo taken that was linked to our MM account.

Do they where different dresses at Christmas time?

1) Yes.
2) INSIDE, no WDW photo people.

No. Belle used to wear her Christmas Dress, but 2014 was the last year for that. In 2015 she wore her Christmas dress at her France greeting spot instead:

We're they all in holiday dresses?

 

[Berlioz70]

No, just Belle.
