Hi Kerina,
I'm a huge fan of the character dining experiences at Walt Disney World. I especially love them at breakfast time because we get a hearty meal that fills us up and gives us enough fuel to have an awesome time cruising through the theme parks.
As far as the prints go, you asked a great question. In fact, I asked it once myself when we were at Cinderella's Royal Table. The answer I got at the time was that they unfortunately could not ship the prints back to the resort hotels.
Never fear...I've got a couple of ideas that might help:
Idea #1: Not many people know that you can
rent lockers in the theme parks and water parks at Walt Disney World. If you're worried that the prints will get banged up or misplaced during your day, consider renting a locker to keep them and any other items you'd rather not lug around for the entire day.
Idea #2: When you buy some souvenirs that you want to have shipped back to your resort hotel, you can give the cast member a wink and a smile and ask if they'll slide the prints in the bag as well. Personally, I've never tried that move before, but it certainly couldn't hurt to ask!
Here's a little tip from your buddy Derek:
When you get your PhotoPass+ card, take a picture of the back of the card so you can clearly see your ID number. That way, if you misplace the card you can easily retrieve the photos that have already been taken.
I hope that helps! If you should have any additional questions, please feel free to write back and I'll be happy to help in any way that I can.
Best regards,
Derek
