Magical moments happen all the time at WDW but sometimes even the cast members get all teary eyed over some of them. I thought I'd start a thread on some magical moments I've witnessed. Feel free to pipe in with yours.
A family comes into the Judge's Tent to see Mickey. As it happens, they are the last family before Mickey goes off for a quick bite of cheese. So, when it was their turn, they were the only ones in the room. One small boy in the family wouldn't go near Mickey. He didn't throw a fit, he just wouldn't leave the entrance door. He was quite polite: "no thank you", said hi to Mickey from afar, but wanted no part of being near him. When offered a sticker by Mickey, he politely said (in a scared little voice): could you please give it to my mom? Well, after many minutes of trying by Mickey, the Character Attendant and myself, he finally came close enough to give Mickey a high 5. Then he stood just close enough so we could get a photo. And then when mom asked, he gave Mickey a hug, but it was a big ole bear hug. Well that was it, Mom, Mickey, the Character Attendant and I were all in tears.
More to come tomorrow.
