Where to find Jiminy Cricket?

[Disney Gator]

OK this is my first new thread. I've heard that you can find Jiminy Cricket on Earth Day, but does anyone know of any other time and place to meet Jiminy Cricket? Anyone seen him at the Flower and Garden Festival? My GF wants to meet and have our picture taken with him. Any info would help.

Jiminy is a tough little guy to fine (and I mean *little*!). We finally found him on our last trip on the character bus at Epcot.

I found him in Feb 2005 at Epcot in Italy.

I never have seen him, however if you go to guest services after 10 am each day, they can call and find out where (which park and exact location) he (or any character) will be located that day, if he is making an appearance in the park. If he is not planned to appear that day, they will let you know that as well.

I seen him only one time ever, on the Epcot Holiday Bus, in May 2003 during the Flower and Garden Festival. He was wearing an orange Home Depot Apron, which I guess was somehow tied to the festival. He is a hard one to find, that's for sure! But it was so cool to meet the Cricket himself!

Thanks for the responses. We have a photo book going of us with characters. It holds 100 pictures and we've only got a couple of pages left in it, so we have a lot. Now we're trying to get those hard to find ones, like Jiminy Cricket. We're heading down next weekend for the AP Soarin preview and the F&G Festival, so we'll check the character caravan and Italy at Epcot.

I downloaded a spreadsheet that shows where you can most likely find all the characters, and they show Jiminy Cricket at the following places: MK Fantasyland Skyway Landing and Fantasyland Festival, and in Italy at Epcot. You can get a copy of the spreadsheet here: http://pscalculator.net/pswebtools.shtml#t006

He is one of my favorites and we have never seen him either. I am going to have to make sure I ask when we get there. Thanks for the information.
