Hi Ashley! Welcome to planDisney!
Can you believe how close your visit to the Walt Disney World Resort is now? It will be here before you know it. Time to get the suitcases out and the
packing list ready. My family just returned from a magical vacation and we had such a dreamy time! This was our family's second visit (my third) since the theme parks reopened last year and I'm beyond impressed with how well Disney has handled the health and safety of the Guests and Cast Members. Trust me, you have a lot to look forward to!
While
Characters are not currently doing meet-and-greets or signing autographs, you will get the opportunity to see them and interact a little with them during your visit. Character Cavalcades make an appearance throughout the day in all four theme parks. My personal favorites are the
Character Flotillas in Disney's Animal Kingdom! We were able to snap some great pictures and videos with our phones as the Characters rode by and waved to us. It was great!
If you have any
Character Dining reservations, you will watch them make their way around the restaurant and you can get some photos with them. Even though the Characters maintain safe physical distancing, they are happy to stand behind you for the perfect photo or selfie. When we dined for breakfast at
Topolino's Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera, we received a postcard-sized card that had the signatures of the Characters that we saw at our breakfast on it. It has become a cherished souvenir!
Hopefully, this helps with your planning, Ashley! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
