Who's done the Disney Visa Character Meet & Greet at Epcot?

[travelbug]

Was it crowded when you went? Which characters did you see? What was the free photo like?

TIA!

We went in October/November and it was great. It was just my Dh and I, there were about 5 families in line. Each family gets to go in seperatly and you get to spend a long time with the characters(well more than you would just getting an autograpgh), we had minnie and goofy, they take about 15 pics and then you can pic the one that you want. We ended up buying more than the free one. Becasue it is just you and the character you get great pics, I got one of me and goofy dancing. The CM did tell me that thye change characters every 15 minutes.

There's a small picture of our meet & greet in my sig, if you can see it.

We saw Goofy & Minnie. It wasn't crowded at all, which was surprising because were were there is early Aug. and everything else was crowded.

We did this at the end of September. We had to wait approximately 45 minutes for our turn, as there were several families in line ahead of us. We were quite pleased when our turn arrived because we had Mickey, Pluto, and Donald to visit with. I think we may have been hurried along more than some others have experienced because there were so many people waiting that day. I felt that we didn't get the one on one experience that some have described.

Overall, I thought the pictures weren't so great. It could have been due to the photographer, or the fact that they were hurrying us through. All of the pictures had an "orange" cast to them. The photos that were taken with my camera came out better. However, I can't turn down the opportunity for a free 5 X 7 so we did get one of them. Didn't order any extras, though.

All in all, I'd say, definitely give it a shot. I think you'll have a better experience if there aren't so many folks waiting in line. Have fun!

We were there last week. Had Mickey and Donald all to ourselves. The pictures turned out great, especially because it was FREE! Ain't too many things FREE at Disney!

Where is the Disney VISA meet and greet located at in Epcot? We're hoping to do this when we're there in May. It sounds like a lot of fun.
