✨ MOONLIGHT MAGIC - EPCOT 2026 ✨

I was lucky enough to get invited to attend the DVC Moonlight Magic event at Epcot on October 15. It was such an amazing event with so many fun characters!

I think the coolest photo of the night had to be the selfie with Snow White and all Seven Dwarfs! It's now super rare to see all the Dwarfs together and even more rare with Snow White!

I was shocked to see these three VIPs in their Three Musketeers outfits. They were meeting at the gazebo in the France Pavilion. Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck were all amazing!

Miss Moth from Pixar's "A Bugs Life" is another very rare character that I have not seen in a very long time. She was out roaming near Imagination Pavilion. She's such a fabulous icon.

New Character Alert! Slim from "A Bugs Life" is a very very hard to find character. In fact, he was my 300th unique character. Such a wonderfully rare character to have for such a milestone!

Flik and Princess (I mean Queen) Atta were also out vising guests. They had a really cute backdrop and Flik assured me that he was trying to stay out of trouble with his inventions. Atta failed to comment.

Poor Pumpkin Duffy has a very minimal wait. He was a bit hidden away, but how absolutely adorable is he?

To end the night, I ran over to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind to catch Star Lord and Gamora chilling near the jump ship. It was such a fun meet! I wish taken in EPCOT by @soarinoverthemagic

Have you ever experienced a rocket launch while in Florida? This morning (October 13, 2026 at 6:33am), SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral as a cargo resupply mission.

The best part was we got to see a Jellyfish Cloud growing through the sky. This is a very sped up video of the cloud blooming. The original video was a bit over a minute, but seeing it sped up makes it feel so powerful.

It's always a joy to see a launch, especially on a morning as clear as this. It made the wait at the parking booths at Hollywood Studios go a bit faster.

Every day is Spooky Season outside of Phantom Manor in Disneyland Paris!

I was lucky enough to visit the Manor in Disneyland Paris earlier this year and I even got to see Mickey Mouse outside greeting guests. Phantom Manor Mickey was the first character I met on my trip. He was one of the characters I was most excited to meet.

Have you ever been on Phantom Manor, or met Mickey in his Phantom Manor best?

I made a custom Autograph Book for my upcoming trip to Disneyland!

Shutterfly was having a big photo book sale including a discount AND unlimited extra pages, so I decided to take advantage of that sale at the last minute.

I have tons of custom pages for specific characters as well as some general pages in case I bump into a random character!

🖋️ VIPS: Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck, Goofy, Chip & Dale, Oswald, Daisy, Clarabelle

🖋️ Princesses: Aurora, Cinderella, Snow White, Belle, Rapunzel, Tiana, Merida, Ariel, Anna & Elsa

🖋️ Avengers: Spider-Man, Captain America, Loki, Thor, and some general pages

I even have basic color block pages and some Halloween themed ones as well!

I made these using Photoshop Elements as well as digital scrapbooking supplies from years ago called “Project Mouse” by Sahlin Studios and Britt-ish Designs (however a new kit hasn’t come out in a very long time).

I am so excited to get to use this in Disneyland when I go. Who would you want to meet in Disneyland? Let me know!

They can't order her to stop dreaming!

It's always such a surprise to run into Cinderella in Epcot. You can almost always find her in Magic Kingdom, but every once in a while she will venture away from there.

What's your favorite memory with Cinderella?

Can you name a brighter ray of sunshine than Merida?

I'm honestly so happy to see her back in Magic Kingdom again. While you can sometimes find her visiting in Princess Fairytale Hall, I found her hanging out in the Gazebo today. I hope that her meeting daily becomes permanent again.

Do you have a favorite memory with Merida?

🍂🍂 Wingapo! Have you painted with all the colors of the wind?

Pocahontas meets daily as you walk up the hill after entering Disney's Animal Kingdom. Be sure to ask her if Percy and Meeko have been behaving if you get a chance to talk to her. Maybe they've figured out how to tolerate each other's presence.

Have you had the chance to meet Mulan in the new Off the Page area of The Magic of Disney Animation building? I absolutely adore the area where all the characters meet. You can meet so many friends in the building (Mulan, Rapunzel, Chip & Dale, Donald & Daisy, Stitch and Gooft) and even more outside in Animation Courtyard.

It is such a great area and I love the life it brings to Disney's Hollywood Studios!

"I am Groot!" translates into "Do you remember, the 21st night of September?" Wait. Wrong park!

Have you experienced the Guardians of the Galaxy rides on both coasts? Which is your favorite? Honestly, I'm a big fan of Guardians of the Galaxy Mission BREAKOUT! at Disney California Adventure in Disneyland. It is probably my favorite Disney attraction.

Walt Disney World has Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. They're two fundamentally different attractions. Which is your favorite?

Do you plan on checking out the new Magic of Disney Animation building in Disney's Hollywood Studios? The grand opening was today (September 14), but I was able to go to the soft opening yesterday.

The building is amazing and filled with a plethora of nods to many of Disney's animated features (even some that don't get the love that they deserve).

There's also an area called "Off the Page!" There are six areas for Character Meets. On a normal day, you can expect to meet Mulan, Rapunzel, Chip & Dale, Donald Duck & Daisy Duck, Goofy and Stitch. On this day, Pluto replaced Stitch. So the characters are never fully guaranteed.

What are you most excited about?

✨✨ MOONLIGHT MAGIC 7/22/26 RECAP! ✨✨

I was lucky enough to get a last minute invite to the DVC Member Moonlight Magic exclusive party at Disney's Hollywood Studios earlier this week. The line up or rare characters was honestly refreshing and super exciting. There was an opportunity for me to add 9 new unique characters to my slowly growing list. I manage to do 8 meets during the 3-hour event and get 7 new characters! It went way better than I expected!

✨ Oswald & Ortensia (NEW)
✨ Sebastian (NEW)
✨ Stitch & Pleakley (NEW)
✨ Agent P (NEW)
✨ Pain (NEW) & Panic (NEW)
✨ Ian & Barley Lightfoot
✨ WALL-E (NEW)
✨ Duffy

I am so grateful that I was able to attend this event and am even closer to the milestone 300th unique character met (since 2010).

Who would you have liked to meet from Monday's lineup?

Did you know that on Easter weekend, you can see (and maybe meet) some rare Disney characters at Magic Kingdom?

Easter 2026 was full of surprises! Not only were the trolley kids out, but you could see Thumper and Miss Bunny , Clara Cluck, Clarabelle Cow, Clarice, Marie, The Flowers, Alice and the White Rabbit, the Fantasia Hippos! It was such an amazing magical moment for all the Magic Kingdom guests!

Have you met any of these characters before?
