Waking up Tink

[pixielove]

I read somewhere that you can wake up Tink at Tinker Bell's Treasures if you are one of the first people in the store. Does anyone know if that's true?

I think that maybe this is what they were talking about- I just asked someone else this same questions and this is what I learned-

At MK, if you are the first person to get to Tinkerbell's Treasures, you can ask the CM if you can "wake up Tink." It's located on your left as you walk through the castle into Fantasy land. It's usually a foot race at rope drop. I have never been able to do it with my daughters, but a friend of mine got a chance with his family. He had an early morning ADR at CRT and finished up as the park was opening. Just happened to be in the right place at the right time. He said there was a disappointed family who came running up out of breath and realized as they arrived that it was too late.

my daughter got to do this on our first trip in '05! we totally lucked out with it. my SIL (big disney freak) told me about it, so i knew it was possible. we had breakfast ressies at CRT before the park actually opened, and as soon as we got out of breakfast, the park had JUST opened and there was nobody at tink's treasures, so we walked in (needed an autograph pen anyway), and the CM there asked our daughter if she wanted to wake up tinkerbell....we didn't even have to ask about it! it was great! she got a certificate and we took lots of pictures...it was very cute.
