Ever try to meet friends from home at the parks?

Hi all,

We just found out that a couple of the children in my son's preschool will be visiting WDW the same week we are. We are all going to be at MK on Friday March 5. Should we try to meet up -- or is it too crazy? If you have ever met up with friends from home, where have you done it? Can anyone recommend a spot in the MK? Thanks!

We've met at character meals before but haven't tried to do it in the parks. If you want to give it a shot though, I would say maybe at one of the shows (Cinderella's Surprise Celebration or Goofy's Jamboree). Preschool age would probably be too tough to do rides together with, except maybe a few of them.

Well, we met family members at the MK. My wife, daughter and I were having breakfast at the castle, my son and father did not go so they entered the park when it opened and my in-laws also were showing up that day. We met right in front of the carousel at the sword in the stone. We had no problems finding my in-laws but my 50 year old dad and 16 year old son were harder to find since they were riding the carousel but they saw us. Basically, as long as you have a set time and location you should have no problems. Also, if you have cell phones to contact each other it is certainly a plus.

Good luck
