We went over to the Plaza Inn on Main Street for the character breakfast (Minnie and Friends). Well, I was sitting there eating my breakfast and we got visited by Eeyore, Tigger, Capt. Hook, Minnie, The Fairy Godmother, and Chip and Dale. Well, Chip was cool, he came by, gave a high-5, took a picture with us and took off. Which is what most of them did. But Dale put my sweatshirt hood on my head and tied the string all the way up..then took it off of me and played with my hair for awhile, AND THEN..he hugged me and held onto me. But, he wouldn't let go..for a long time. And I mean a long time. It was at the point where I was a little uncomfortable and I practically had to tell him that was enough. My brother thought that whoever was in the suit was flirting with me. That was an interesting character experience..

I was cracking up as was she. When she walked over to me afterwards, she said "Oh my God, he felt me up a little and he was GRUNTING"!! we couldn't stop laughing the rest of the day. Happiest Place on Earth indeed!!!

I refer to, of course, the new Indy Jones coaster at DisneySea! Not. But yeah, the first paragraph. Only about Indy Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull. Only at Tokyo DisneySea. The greatest theme park ever built. DCA sucks. Bye.

I hugged a few characters while I was there, and thought later that I don't know who was in that suit, male, female, could be someone I would not touch for a million bucks normally! I guess we just have to trust Disney to have the greatest people ever in those costumes, and that they deserve a lot of hugs. I'm glad your brother has some great memories of that day.
