Their vision is really limited in the suits, so it's possibly you two were in a blind spot. But yeah, the handler should have brought him back over to you guys
I'm sure it's possible that Eeyore didn't see us, but we were one of the first tables of the section he walked into, it just seemed like they kind of glanced our way and rushed right by! Maybe next time I will try to mention to my server how excited I am to meet Eeyore, see if they get the hint!
Oh no! I can't believe Eeyore snubbed you! Although I can believe you missed out on a couple characters - the same thing happened to us in November!
I think CP could use some more organizing. It's such a popular breakfast, and people should be guaranteed a visit from
all the characters.
I agree, CP could definitely be a little more organized! I honestly don't mind missing the characters if we are up at the buffet, because that's our choice not to sit and wait, but if you're at your table and a character walks by, they should at least stop by! And we definitely don't take a lot of time with the characters, just get a quick picture and thank them and that's it, so they have more time to interact with kids!
I was thinking I'd skip CP on my next trip, but the more I think about actually doing it, the more I wonder if I can really skip it, I love it so much!
Bummer about your experience at CP! When we were there (no kids here either), we were up at the buffet when Tigger went by, so we had to wait around after our meal for him to return. Otherwise, we had no trouble and all the characters stopped to take pics with us. You must have just hit them on a bad day, I guess?
I'm guessing we just had bad timing that day with the characters.
We had a great time when we were there in May. I'm sure I will try again, maybe we will go for dinner or something, although I do like being there before MK opens...we'll see how I feel on April 3 when I get to make my ADR's!
That stinks about the characters not stopping to meet you.
I don't get why you HAVE to have kids to see characters.
It's like in April when my dad and I were in the China pavilion and saw Mulan. I know I mentioned this in my TR but all I got was a quick hello when the kids before me got a great interaction.
Great pictures of Main Street. I just love the Christmas decorations!
I know you don't have to have kids to see the characters, we had a great time at Chef Mickey's with all of the characters, and at CP in May they all stopped by (well except Eeyore, but we were leaving when he was near our section) so I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it. Maybe characters just think that if you don't have kids, you don't want a whole elaborate interaction like they do with kids, but if you are at a character breakfast or in line to meet one, you obviously have some interest in seeing them!
Thanks! I am starting to get really depressed about missing the Christmas decorations this year...I really want to find a way to take a quick weekend trip in December to see them, but I have a feeling to do that, I might have to rearrange some things in my October trip, so I'm not sure if I'm willing to do that...although 2 trips in 2 months is tempting! We'll see what Brandon says when I have enough courage to bring it up!
I'm all caught up! I'm glad you had a nice dinner at Teppan Edo! We were originally going to eat there on our trip, but when my cousin and his girlfriend had to back out we changed our reservations! We eat Japanese ALL the time at home, so I wanted to change it up!
I'm sorry you couldn't find that perfect spot for Illuminations, but I'm glad you were still able to enjoy the show! It's so beautiful!
UGH! I can't believe you were snubbed at Crystal Palace! Our experience at Crystal Palace this trip was great, but we had some other character experiences that weren't so great. I guess it just depends on when you go. Some characters are way more interactive with adults than others!
Yay! Teppan Edo was fun, but I probably won't do it again for a while, I've heard it's just like any other hibachi place! I'm glad we tried it though, I'd like to eventually try every restaurant in Epcot! It's hard though, since Brandon always wants to eat at Le Cellier twice on each trip!
I love Illuminations, so once it started, it didn't really matter our spot was less than perfect! The music is so amazing, I can't wait til October to see it again!
CP is usually great, I think maybe we were just there on a bad day, or at a weird time or something! I'll probably try it again, if I don't schedule too many other breakfast ADR's for October! The idea of skipping it is a little depressing, since we did like it so much in May! And the food there is really good!
Don't worry, he will warm up when all the snow melts! 
I mean, I was drenched! Lesson leaned, ride Splash last!
