Today in my April Disney Destinations there was information about a new character spot in EPCOT.
It sounds really neat!!!
I put the information from the Disney site below since I had to log in from the newsletter to read more about it, and I didn't know if a link would work:
The Newest Place to "Spot" Characters
Now your kids can meet their Disney pals in a new cartoon world of fun
Mickey and some of his best friends now have a magical new place where they could meet you and the kids called The Epcot® Character Spot. Opening spring 2007, it's a wonderland of colorful environments and magical touches where the fun begins even before your little ones meet some of their beloved favorites.
Wonderful worlds within our "World"
With the help of their 'toon friends, Walt Disney Entertainment Cast Members came up with the new Spot. It's a delightful little tribute to nearby Innoventions, the gigantic Epcot showplace of the newest technologies, interactive games and hands-on exhibits.
"Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy, Chip 'n Dale and the gang inspired a new kind of all-encompassing cartoon world," explained Show Writer/Director Forrest Bahruth. "In addition to meeting favorite Disney Characters, there are lots of other things to see and do, too."
Choose your happy adventure
As Disney tunes dance merrily through the air, you and your children will be able to choose your paths to the five different experiences, all featuring imaginative, amusing details to explore and enjoy.
Mickey or one of his best pals might pop up in Transportation, celebrating getting "from here to there" over the years and into the future. Goofy is likely to wander through Space, where you might encounter friendly alien images and other out-of-this-world imagery in what Forrest calls "Satellite Central."
More to explore than ever before
Chip 'n Dale are nuts about Energy, so it's fitting that they or their fellow characters scamper around an environment sparkling with electricity, lab equipment, generators and wacky wiring.
Pluto got all excited when he saw the 'toon version of Land. He just loves flowers, trees, fruit and veggies—and he couldn't believe how huge everything was! It's a beautiful, dreamlike environment where all the citizens of Earth live in harmony.
Since Minnie Mouse loves to be on the cutting edge of Communication, she insisted on having fun inspired by the latest in computers, cell phones and futuristic ways for folks to connect with each other.
"It's one of our most unique places where families can get photos, hugs and autographs with our characters, yet it's very fitting with the extraordinary Epcot experience," Forrest added. "And of course, it's all based on fun—after all, Mickey and the gang wouldn't have it any other way!"
