Mary Poppins?

[scousemouse09]

Hi all,
Can anyone please advise on where we would find Mary Poppins in the parks? My DS is obsessed with the film. If I recall correctly you can see her at Epcot in the UK pavilion; can you see her anywhere else?
Cheers!

Yes,Mary meets at a Practically Perfect spot in the UK Pavilion.

She meets right on the Promenade-you can't miss her.

There is also usually a Mary Poppins topiary in the UK complete with umbrella.

We've seen her several times in the magic kingdom on Main Street right in from of the hat store.

When she is in MK she usually waits to receive guests in front of the Bicycle sign. As you enter MK, walk past Tony's restaurant and hang a right. The hat shop will be right there too. However, she is not there every day. It is best to ask at City Hall if it is really important to your son, to find out her schedule.

Although not in the parks, you could have a character breakfast with her and friends at 1900 Park Fare at the Grand Floridian.

For her MK spot, Mary can also appear in a secluded corner just past the park entrance to the left: there's a painting that she sometimes stands in front of. I know I'm not describing this spot very well, but if you enter the park at the far left and keep looking left you'll find it. I think it's next to Guest Relations.

I found this out the hard way when I spent an hour trying to find a character CM after she didn't appear at the bicycle sign. Pluto's handler finally pointed me in the right direction.

(...in my defense, it was Valentine's Day, and Bert was with her for a one day special event. I had to have that pic---and I got it, and it was worth it. I wish they'd meet together regularly, they were wonderful!)

Oh, I would love to meet her with Bert someday!

I met her in February in the spot Khara is describing - it's the "alcove"/"arbor" on your left when entering the park and I think it is just left of Guest Relations. I met Snow White and her Prince there during Valentine's Week 2013, and I think it's the same spot where Rapunzel was for a while, after they moved her out of the garden where Merida meets now, and before they put her in Town Square Theatre.

When I met Mary Poppins there ("Never just Mary," if you've seen Saving Mr Banks ), she was in her Jolly Holiday dress (as she usually seems to be) - but I walked by there on another morning when it was cool and damp out and she was meeting in her "London" coat and hat.

Cheers folks! And thanks for the link Robo. Sadly my DS seems to love all of the "unlikely to meet" characters (like Thumper, his all time favourite) but at least he'll see Mary Poppins.

In Dinoland USA where Donald& Goofy meet, when we were walking by we watched a danceparty(?) type event happening that had Princess Atta, Thumper, and a few other rareish characters.

I totally know what you mean by "I have to have that pic". I went to MVMCP Dec last year and was beyond thrilled when I found out I could get Mary Poppins, Bert and the penguins. Unfortunately they did not have a photopass photographer and the lighting was really bad so the picture isn't great, but I still got my pic. Mary Poppins is one of my favorites!
