Day 7 - EPCOT - Characters!

Our trip to EPCOT included many character visits! We pretty much saw the majority of the princesses and other characters, but we still hadn't seen the Big Cheese himself. He seemed to be a little more challenging or too long of a line. So we decided EPCOT was going to be our last chance. I looked him up on our phone app. We thought about making a reservation for dinner to see him, but he wasn't guaranteed to be there. EPCOT is the place where my Disney VISA has a meet and greet, so we headed over to the location.

There were only 2 other people in line, so it was already looking pretty good. The Disney Cast Member told us they couldn't tell us who was behind the curtain and ruin the surprise, so we just waited. When it was our turn, Goofy was there to greet us...but Amelia looked right past him to see none other than Minnie!

You can see her giving Goofy five, but her eyes are elsewhere.
Minnie! Don't even try to hold this kid back :)
I LOVE you Minnie!
The girls got to dance around with them and then we took some pictures
Family shot. Amelia would not be held. She wouldn't leave Minnie.
After our VISA meet and greet we knew we still had to find Mickey. So we headed over to the line to meet all the characters. I think it took around 30 min but then you were in line to see ALL of the characters so it was well worth the wait.

Mickey was our first character. To say he was impressed with Amelia isn't even half of the story. Gabriella ran up to him followed by Amelia with open arms again. Mickey was so excited and had to bend down to give her a hug. Mickey kept giving us the thumbs up and pointing to the girls.
Hey look, a video!
