We're thinking of going to Epcot in May with DS 5 and DS 7. What characters do you usually see at Epcot, and is there a particular area where they are?
 
We went in December, there was a place called something like Character pavilion, it was indoors, maybe someone else can help with the directions, I think it was under the awnings to the right of the big fountain if the Epcot ball is behind you. Anyway, we had no idea what it was just went in because it was raining, it was full of characters, Minnie, Mickey, Pluto, Chip n' Dale, Donald, Turk, Snow White, I think a few more I didn't really know. My daughter had them almost all to herself there were very few people in there.
 
In the morning and several other times throughout the day there is a double decker bus that appears for a meet and greet. All the biggies are usually there.

Here is a list I found on who sometimes appears in Epcot.

The Bus doesn't exist anymore. It stopped in early November.
 

In character Connections in future World
we saw Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Chip and Dale, Donald all three times we went
We saw Goofy twice
Pinnochio (sp) Gideon, Max and Mary Poppins once

Waits were not long at all This is where I suggest to meet the fab five.

In the World Showcase, we saw Princess Belle and the Beast (France)
Princess Aurora (near france)
Alice, Pooh, and Tigger (England)
Mushu (China)
Princess Jasimine and Prince Aladdin (Moracco)
 
We saw Mickey and Goofy dressed as astronauts outside of Mission Space, Belle and the Beast and Princess Aurora in the France pavilion, Aladdin and the Genie just outside of the Morocco pavilion, and Snow White in the Germany pavilion. I know there were other characters around, those were just the ones we really wanted to see and made sure we found them. When we were there, they still have the character bus that went around, but we kept missing that. My sister and BIL took their baby girl to Disney last month and sent a link to their Photopass pictures, and at the Character Connection room, they got to see Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Pluto.
 
we went round world showcase just after opening and saw loads of characters.They gave us plenty of attention as it was pretty quiet at that time-everyone else queuing for the big rides :goodvibes

My brother is usually plastered at the Rose & Crown. Does that count?
