You know, it's occurred to me that I have yet to meet the "Hollywood" versions of the Fab 5. That's just wrong.
Aww, nothing worse than setting up for a picture only to have the sun right in your eyes. I guess the characters must be used to it since it never seems to affect them at all.
God, I haven't met Buzz or Woody either. Oy!! On the bright side DS sure does look like he's warming to the characters quite a bit. My goodness, what an outstanding interaction.
HAHAHAHA, yes, that is an AWESOME pose with Lightning.
This was the first time meeting the Hollywood Donald & Daisy despite trying on two previous trips. So yay, victory! Still never met Minnie in her Hollywood getup, but on our last trip we saw Goofy and Chip & Dale out by the hat looking dapper.
That's so true! Their eyes are always nice and wide!
Buzz & Woody was one of the more fun interactions, although DS did that zoning out thing again when it came time for pictures. And when Buzz was leading him around, I don't think he really knew what he was supposed to be doing. But he definitely enjoyed meeting them & hugging them! A tip for meeting Buzz & Woody is that their line gets long quick so it's best to do early in the morning!
I LOVE that picture of him with his idol!
Daisy and Donald look so cute in their hollywood outfits! That picture of Paxton with them is so cute eventhough the sun was in his eyes.
In that picture of you pushing the stroller towards the hat it looks like everyone is walking super fast!
So all of the parks open the turnstiles up 15 minutes before park opening? I didn't know that!
Everyone was definitely walking fast! But it's still better because the turnstiles help slow down the influx of people instead of the old way of letting everyone in first and then having everyone running in the same direction! Epcot, DHS, and AK all generally open the turnstiles about 15-20 minutes early now to accomplish this. I was sad that they did away with the opening shows, but it beats joining the stampede towards TSM or Soarin'!
I'm glad DS had fun on Toy Story Mania!
I love all the pictures from your meet with Buzz and Woody, but my favorite is the one where he is holding both of their hands.
That stinks that they lost the rest of your pictures from the meet
What a cool dude Paxton is! I love the picture of him with Lightening McQueen!
Hollywood Studios is such a tough park, we have had that problem many times - what to do?!
I was bummed about the Phineas & Ferb pictures! At least DH was good about getting a couple of pictures, I would have hated to have none at all!
DHS was definitely toughest on DS's first trip when he was too small for the rides and no attention span for the shows. Now that we can add shows into the mix, it's a bit easier. And for our family that loves meeting characters, this is the park for us! But occasionally when the show times just don't add up, we can still find ourselves circling around looking for something to do.
Paxton's pictures keep getting better and better! Well, except for the ones when he had the son in his eyes and could see a blasted thing. Poor little guy.
How nice of you to sacrifice your TSM score to help Paxton.
Those Buzz and Woody pics are such a flash back for me. Brian was Paxton's age when the first Toy story movie was released and he absolutely LOVED Woody. I see that all over again when I see P's pictures.
I know that you are going to come up with a great option on what to do next!
That was probably the worst spot they could have picked for a character meet! The sunlight was directly on that spot. But DS was still excited to see those ducks.
Aw, so sweet about Toy Story!
It's so funny how different Disney movies can really help us pinpoint certain times in our lives. I remember when Toy Story came out, we all went to see it in theaters as a family because my dad was SO fascinated with the idea of a movie made completely on computers! Seeing it as a kid and then experiencing Toy Story 3 as an adult with my own kid, just made it more emotional because those movies were part of my childhood and now I get to share them with my own son!
Oh my goodness the pictures with Donal and Daisy are too funny, poor guy that sun looks intense!
I'm glad DS enjoyed TSM with his own gun, I love that ride!
Awesome interaction with Woody and Buzz, all the pictures are so awesome!
I love love love the photo with Lightening McQueen! So awesome! He really does look like a cool dude!
He definitely enjoyed getting to play this time around instead of just being a passenger!
Buzz & Woody was a great meet. He loves those toys! Lately now he has been on a big Toy Story kick and wanting to watch it all the time. Funny how a movie that came out when I was a kid can still be so relevant and entertaining now to my own kid!
One of my favorite pics of him from this trip.
Oh my goodness, that's such a fantastic photo of Paxton with Lightning McQueen.
He looks like he just hanging out with one of his buddies, no big deal.
Great character interaction with Woody and Buzz. It's nice to see they took their time and did a few different things with Paxton.
Exactly!! I need to get that one framed for his room.
With a meet as popular as Buzz & Woody I think it would be very easy for them to just shove kids through without much interaction to keep the line moving. I was very impressed that they were exactly the opposite and spent a good time playing around with all the kids that went in to meet them!
Ya know, I find myself wondering where I should go next in DHS a lot! Since there are so many shows with set times, it can be harder to figure out what your next stop should be.
I came over from MEK's trip report. There is too much to comment on, since I'm behind, 
And thank you very much. 
So I thought I had a bunch missing, but I think I just forgot to put in one of my numbers. The P&F photos were the only ones they didn't recover though, so that was good at least. But it still sucks, especially when it's one of the meets where we didn't take a lot with our own camera.
