Troy's autograph book |
On our first day in Florida, my sister, Trixie, bought Troy an autograph book. The purpose of this book was to collect the signatures of the different 'stars' (read: mascots) that he will meet during our visit. During our first trip to Florida over 10 years ago, Trixie was still around 10 years old and she had a fun time getting all the mascots to sign her autograph book. My sister thought it would be a good experience for Troy to do the same. I was not initially sold on the idea thinking it won't really mean anything since those will just be the signatures of the people inside the mascots.
Then my aunt shared with me how my cousin, Shaun, had a similar autograph book when he was small. He is now 15 but as he was growing up, he would check his book once in a while to see which characters he met during his Disney visit. I thought that made for a nice souvenir. And so i was convinced.
So off we went and Troy started getting the characters to sign his autograph book as we took pictures with them.
Here are some of the characters that we met in Disney Hollywood.

Phineas and Ferb |

Boo and one of the monsters from Monsters Inc. |

And of course, Mickey Mouse |
For your little girls, it's best to meet the princesses at the Magic Kingdom. The Animal Kingdom also has a lot of animal characters and classic Disney mascots in their Safari costumes. Troy loved Disney Hollywood the most because Disney Junior and all the recent Movie characters were there. Spell S-T-A-R-S-T-R-U-C-K!
Hope you enjoyed snippets of our Disney experience.
How nice! I wish I could take my kids to Disneyland too! They'll be so delighted like Troy! :)
