Complete Character Hunting Guide! July 22-26!

[WeatherbySwann]

Just got back today from a magnificent first cruise on the Wonder . . . we liked CM Pikey, the restauraunts (especially Animator's Palate), and the shows the best. And, of course, we loved seeing all the characters! There weren't really any very rare characters until the 'Til We Meet Again, where we saw the Muses, Hades, Hermes, Lion King dancers, Anne Marie, Cruelella's henchmen, and some others. The only other semi-rare character we met besides those were Max, and he was only out once. The following list is for the Wonder on July 22-26. Obviously, every cruise is a little different, though these were just the times & places of all the character appearances when we visited. This may not include ALL of the character appearances, but is most of them. It includes all that were printed on every Personal Navigator, as well as random appearances that were not posted on the Navigator that we found ourselves.

Phew! Time for bed! I'll post Personal Navigators plus start my TR tomorrow!

 

[bradk]

oh.. so nice.. thanks.. can't wait for the personal navigator

you have a pic of pirate stitch? i've never been this eager to age before.

 

[WeatherbySwann]

We won't have our pics developed until a few more days . . . but I know where to find a pic of Pirate Stitch, but it's not my picture, it's from a different website - Am I still allowed to post it here?

 

[bradk]

if you don't want to post it, just PM it to me. thanks.

 

[WeatherbySwann]

Click here to see Stitch in his Pirate outfit. Photo credit to Deb Wills of allearsnet.com. Elvis Stitch in Golden Mickeys is really awesome, too,click here to see it. Both are not my pics.

 

[WeatherbySwann]

I'd also advise to bring a highlighter with you so you can pick out on the Personal Navigator what acitivites/characters you want to see. Highlight them the night before, when your Navigators first arrive. Oh also bring blank white pillowcases and drop them off at Guest Services on Deck 3 early in your vacation and ask them to be signed by the characters. On your last night after you come back from dinner, waiting for you will be your pillowcases signed by all the characters!!! It's a great souvenir and . . . IT'S FREE!!! I'll post pics of those too when I get a chance. Now it's off to bed.

[bradk]
