Mickey and Minnie together. I saw on another board that you can get pics with other couple characters such as Minnie Mickey. I know Jasmine and Aladdin are in Morocco. Beauty and the Beast in France, but where would you get this photo opportunity. I don't think its a Valentines thing but I don't know.

It is *rare* to get pictures of Mickey and Minnie together. Very rare. We were lucky enough once and they were doing Christmas photos during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. We were one of the first ones in line and I *think* they were supposed to be separate, but they came out together and took pics with a couple of kids, dd7 included and then we left so I don't know if they stayed together or not. A good way to get group shots is to schedule a character meal at a really off time, like breakfast at Chef Mickey's at 1045 or something. Usually there are so few people that the characters will congregate in the center area. Not always.. lol I don't want to be blamed for something.


We have seen Jasmine and Aladdin together in Morroco, we've never been fortunate to see the Beast, we've seen Mr & Mrs. Incredible in Tomorrowland, Lilo & Stitch always appear together in AK right before you turn to Camp Minnie Mickey, We've found Keena and Koda together, and I've heard of people finding Snow White with a dwarf (or 7! lol)

I agree with Sonya (yet again) - you just have to get VERY lucky. In our 7 trips, we have seen Snow White with the dwarfs, and we've been lucky to get a few "couple" shots, including Jasmine and Alladin.

However, I am going to have to show off a bit now! This past December, we were at Epcot's new Character Connection. It seemed not too many knew about it, because 2 times we were the only ones in there with the characters for 10 minutes or so. The second time my husband asked if we could get a big group shot with ALL the characters, since nobody else was in there. The cast member in charge told us absolutely not, but Mickey whispered in her ear. She sighed and told us OK, Mickey wanted to do it - but HURRY before anyone else comes along! It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime shot. However, it never hurts to ask if you're in a similar situation.

Here's that group photo: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8QbMWbFuxbObA&notag=1

It really was a great opportunity. I wish it would not have come up after we were stuck in the rain though! We were all looking a bit scruffy.

We found Character Connection by accident really. I still thought the characters were going to come around on a double-decker bus. We walked by and happened to see Goofy in the window, which made my husband check things out.

Wow, Natalie! What a beautiful picture of both your DD and Belle!! We've only seen her in her blue and white dress (at breakfast in the Castle and in Norway and once we just happened to find her in France); that gown is beautiful!! I have to say though when we found her by accident in France, my oldest was too shy to go up to her but my little one, who was celebrating her 4th bdy that day, talked Belle's ear off! :D It was great b/c there was no one else waiting to meet her so Belle got down next to her and just chatted right back! :)
