While Jeff and Lucas went back to ride some of the fast rides, my mom and I took Ellen to another parade that was going on around 7pm.  Once again, she absolutely loved it!  And this time they stopped the parade and invited everyone to dance with the characters.  Ellen got a lot of high fives and a lot of personal waves, like this one here from Woody!

Grandma and Ellen in front of the castle!

If we ever gave Ellen a choice of what she wanted to do next, it was always to go see Mickey.  Since he was stationed at the entrance, we saw him again on our way out.  This time Ellen got him all to herself!

Here she is giving him a kiss.

And a hug!

Then it was time for Ellen to pose for a picture.  Mickey thought it was funny that she wouldn't smile...

Here is a little smirk, but still not good enough for Mickey...

So he tickled her nose...

And was happy to see a smile!  See him pointing to her smile : )

 Ellen is not into princesses, but since they were right by Mickey, and there was no line, we saw them too.  Ellen wasn't as impressed.
