General Info:
Hyacinth Hippo is a very classic Disney character, from the 1940 movie Fantasia. She is not the most graceful dancer, but she tries hard! In Fantasia, she is definitely more of a brown color as opposed to pink, but she is definitely pink at Disney
World! She is an extremely rare character, only coming out pretty much only for special events. Usually she is only in parades. But we met Hyacinth (actually two hippos) at Epcot, for a special weekend in May called Characters In Bloom. In fact, we
never heard of Hyacinth out greeting any other time. Mlle. Upanova the ostrich from Fantasia was also there. So finding Hyacinth is probably not going to happen on normal days! But we were thrilled to meet her once, and watch her dance!

Character Hunting Tips: -
Finding a beloved character can be a child (or adult's!) highlight of a trip to
Disney World! On this page, we listed a character we met, also
the places we seen this character on our
week-long trips (Jan 2003, May 2003, Oct 2003, Jan 2004, April 2004, Oct/Nov 2004, April 2005, Oct 2005, December 2005, January 2006, May 2006, November 2006, February 2007, September 2007, January 2008, October 2008).
Some characters were found by some fellow character hunters who were nice
enough to help us out!
Unfortunately, we aren't local to Florida (wish we were!!!), so we certainly don't know
everything about every character!
But we tried to list good places to look and
recent reliable sightings of that character!
Must say, sometimes finding a favorite character can be difficult!
One day you may see a bunch of characters in one spot, and the next day - not one!
Some characters may be everywhere on one trip, and nowhere the next! And some
characters come out only for 10 minute meets, then don't return for hours! Yikes!
Your best
bet to find your favorite character
is to read various character websites (check links here!),
or ask at Guest Relations at a Disney World park or resort (sometimes they
can tell you where a character is meeting people that day),
or check the Times Guide Map that you pick up when
you enter the Disney World parks. Or just wander around
and constantly look everywhere you go! Good luck character hunting!!
