My last trip was the first time that I ever felt concerned or self-conscious about my age (I'm 28) - I had a sort of weird interaction with Peter Pan, and I felt like it was literally forcing me to grow up, haha. It very well may have been the Pan that I ended up with that day - the rest of my interactions have been wonderful. I'm curious to try Peter Pan again next month when I go.
My last trip I had great interactions with tons of characters, except Pan, I was most excited for him but the Pan we got was super awkward and didn't even notice the huge Peter on my friends shirt, we basically just took a photo and left. Super disappointing.
I hope Peter Pan hasn't changed from when I saw him in 2011. My daughter was 16 at the time and he is her favorite character. He asked her if she was there with anyone and she pointed to me and said my whole family is here but my mom waited in line with me to see you. He pointed to me and said, "Is that your mom?" When she responded yes he said, "Cool, she can be my mom too!" Then he walked over to me and posed for a photo with me.
I like to start conversations with simple things like, "Goofy, my trip is complete now that I've found you!" or "Hello Mickey, I hope you're having a great day!" They usually respond right away. My husband sometimes kisses Minnie's hand and then Mickey acts jealous~it gets conversations going.
