Belle at February Half Term

[rcol]

I am going to be at DLP from Monday to Friday February half term.

My 2.5 yr old daughter is OBSESSED by Belle and really wants to meet her.

Can any one tell me my best chances? Can you find out which princesses will be at the pavillion at any time?

If I book lunch at the auberge then can I find out in advance if Belle will be there as my daughter has no interest in any other princesses?

If all else fails the story book boats look like they are open at Feb half term according to the closure list, are these lists always right??

Sorry for all the questions just need to manage some expectations!!! Never had this problem with my son - girls huh!!!

Well i've just phoned DLP and there is no guarantee of Belle on any day. I was told firmly that it is Cinderella's auberge!!

I have taken a punt and booked for valentines day lunch. Hopefully they will put the romantic princesses on for valentines day.

Have also ordered the Cinderella dvd in an attempt to de 'Belle' my daughter

We have been to the auberge several times and have always met Belle but as you say there is no guarantee. We are in a similar position but have 3 dds who all have a different favourite, it would make it so much easier if they would advertise specific times to see the individual princesses but I suppose that would be too difficult.

Good luck!

I've been twice and Belle has always been there. She does seem to be fairly regular, but then, when you want that one it doesn't always work out like that!

Just a thought, I know you have now booked, but could you maybe ask the concierge at the hotel (assuming you are staying in a Disney one) to contact the restaurant to ask on the day who will be there before you go. They probably won't say but it might be worth trying. I recall when we went both times that there did not seem much life at all at the restaurant before the doors opening at 12 noon (just from glancing in windows when in Fantasyland), so not much chance of getting in there before the time to ask..... They almost seem to keep the place under lock & key!

If you see the other thread re Princess Pavilion - it doesn't seem you can find out who is on there either - so you queue for sometimes up to an hour, get in there and your
Daughter isn't happy because it's a different Princess!! At least when they used to do the meet n greet open air you could see who was there - didn't stop them swapping them when you were 3 from the front though (which happened to us twice!)

I'm hoping my two will be happy with whomever they see but I know DD1 would love to meet the newer Princesses - Rapunzel & Tiana etc.
