MEETING MAYNARD I was planning a trip for Disneyland in January and was trying to find something to do that I haven't done before and I found all the info on Maynard. I read all the little stories and saw the pictures and decided my goal was to find him. Well I was on my third day there and with no sight of him I gave up. A little disappointed I got in line for the jungle cruise. I was getting close to the front when I heard laughing right in front of me and a cast member squeezed right in front of me. Finally! It was Maynard with plastic bugs all over him. He had asked a lady to put her hand out and when she did he put a wind-up beetle in her hand, played the harmonica and danced around while the beetle danced in her hand. Instantly the whole line was in a riotous laughter. I asked for a picture and he politely posed with his bugs, but unfortunately the flash didn't go off. It's amazing how one person can heighten your experience in just a few minutes. Hopefully other cast members will take notes, because he is the epitome of the reason we all go to Disneyland.
