The best thing about being two adults without the kids at a character anything (been to breakfast & dinner a few times each) is that you can goof with the characters and see how much you can comunicate with them without them speaking a word, of course. My favorite story concerning this very thing is a friend of ours, a Disneymaniac type guy, was on a business trip to Orlando alone. He drove over to the MK to walk around and have dinner at LTT. Goofy saw him sitting alone, sat down at the table with him and proceeded to have a 10 minute "conversation" asking him why he was alone, etc. It's a hoot how they all really can talk if you just know how. We also have observed adults who talk ABOUT the characters while their kids are getting pictures taken, etc. but never speak TO them. Such missed opportunities for fun!
