Our daughter was 5 at the time of our trip as well. We were all big fans of Crystal Palace for breakfast. She just loved getting to see Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet! We stayed there for a good while after our meal, just because she was having such a good time!! We also had lunch another day at Akershus, and that one was a lot of fun as well. She adored seeing and getting to talk to her favorite princesses. (We had Snow White, Cinderella, Belle, Aurora and Ariel.) The interactions with face characters that talk as opposed to those in complete costume that don't talk are completely different. We found that interactions with face characters were so sweet. She would have great conversations with them and loved getting to talk to them alot. With those in full costume, like Pooh and Eeyore, it was more fun. They really knew how to make her laugh, and she enjoyed hugging on them. Hope you have a great time on your trip!!! Take lots and lots of pictures! =)
