My character locating on Day 3 began with wanting to get a photo of Captain Hook and Mr. Smee together.  As I waited in the short line, I saw Goofy out on Deck 4 working out.  It was around 10:00am.

Captain Hook and Smee together is about as much fun as meeting Chip n Dale.  Hook has a temper and can go off in a moment’s notice.  He wanted to stand on a certain side for the photo and Smee was there, so a bit of a tif ensued.

I did some other activities, then it was my time for the Frozen meet and greet inside Animator’s Palate.  I arrived to find that only Princess Anna was meeting.  The character attendant encouraged the guests to stop by guest services and book another time for Thursday or Friday.  Evidently Queen Elsa had some royal business to attend to early in our trip.

After the meet with Anna, I found Minnie wearing a different Purple Princess costume and joined the line to meet her.

Later I found Donald wearing his Island wear.  I was informed that all the characters typically wear these outfits on Day 3, but the 4th of July changed things up a bit.  I was fine with that because I’d be less likely to cruise on the 4th again vs any other regular day.

It was then time for me to use my free ticket to meet all 4 Princesses.  The group Princess meet that requires the ticket is held in the main Atrium on Deck 3.  If you don’t book online, be sure to stop by Guest Services.  During my trip it was Cinderella, Tiana, Belle and Ariel.  The wait was very short and I didn’t have to repeat the same line multiple times.

Tinker Bell offered a special meet and greet area with a flower backdrop it is listed as Atrium Lobby V and is beside Guest Services behind a set of doors.  They open the doors for the meets here.

After a brief 4th of July show which would go on to include live music on deck, I made my way down to meet Daisy who would be wearing Island Wear still.

At 4:30pm on July 4th the characters switched to their patriotic costumes.  Every character that would appear, except Stitch, would wear a great All-American costume for the evening.  I began with Pluto.

Donald was in a very celebratory mood.

I told Minnie that she looked like a young Betsy Ross

I squeezed in a meet with Mickey Mouse before attending the evening show.  He is a combination of Apollo Creed and Uncle Sam.

My son wanted to meet Stitch, since there was no one in line for him.  Everyone was interested the the Independence Day costumes.

We then met Chip n Dale before heading to dinner.

After dinner we met Goofy before enjoying some family activities and letting my son head off to Vibe for the remainder of the night.
