At WDW, with people visiting from all around the world, it's almost impossible not to chat with someone from another country. My family always chats with someone from another country, but several have stuck out in my mind.
The first trip (1997), we had a two-hour wait before IllumiNations. A British family (mom, dad, two boys, and a girl, the girl and one boy teens) stood next to us as we waited, and those two hours passed too quickly!! We talked about our home countries (we're from Mississippi) and just had a wonderful time. Then on our trip in June '08, I waited in line for Soarin' in front of a British mom and her two young kids (very nice people). And my mom, while my brother waited in line to meet Minnie, pushed a British lady's stroller for her (she was alone with two toddlers) and they chatted for at least thirty minutes! And also in June, we took pictures in front of Cinderella's Castle for a very friendly family from India.
Does anyone else have stories similar they'd like to share?
