just curious is the lines like at mickey's house, the AK character trails, or what?

thanks for the help!
 
Animal kingdom and Epcot we had not problems with at all. In fact we walked right into Epcot and were nearly the only people in there. MGM backlot was pretty empty too especially where Sorcerror Mickey was. In Toon Town though the wait to see the Characters was about 45 minutes long. We only waited about 10 to see Mickey.
 
We were in and out of the Character Connection in Epcot in like fifteen minutes. Two of the kids didn't want their pictures taken. So our youngest and DW and I took pictures with the characters. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Chip and Dale, Goofy, and Pluto were there. It is a great way to get some pictures and autos in a short amount of time.
 
A co-worker just returned from Disney and she was SO thankful I had told her about "Character Connection" before they went. She said there was NOBODY else in there ("nobody knows about that place?" she exclaimed in amazement). Her 2 boys spent about 20 minutes dancing around with the characters. She said it was incredible.
 

We've been to the Character Connection 4 or 5 times this year. Only 1 time did we have a wait (about 5 minutes). The other times, we walked right on in & up to meet Mickey (I think he's always first).
 
When I was down in May/June, there were no lines, I went back several times and no lines. I think it is a great spot, I wish you luck and if you get there early you will probably really luck out. :thumbsup2
 
We went during Spring Break 2006 and saw all of the characters in less than 20 minutes....they really took their time too!!! It is great!!!
 
The Character Connection is in Innoventions. If you walk through the breezeway from the central area to the side of Future World with the Land, it should be on your left. I went there for the first time last week and it was awesome. Lines were short (I think 5 minutes of so to get to the characters), it was very well-organized and everything was indoors and air-conditioned! You stand in a single line and once you get to the front, you just move on from character to characters similar to the Hall of Fame at MK but with 6 or so characters in the room insteed of just 3 or so. Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Donald, Chip, Dale, and Goofy were all there throughout the day and I noticed Pinocchio and King Louie were there as well when I passed by at other times.
