Starring in more roles than his best pal Mickey, Donald Duck is hot tempered but ever lovable. His very human, and often hilarious, frustration with the more irritating side of life has provided entertainment to his fans since his debut in the Silly Symphonies on 9th June 1934. Donald Duck’s ever suffering love interest is Daisy Duck, who along with her short temper, make the perfect match.
A very keen traveller, Donald is also friends with Jose and Panchito whom he met on his exploits to South America.
While something very small can make him flip, Donald's down to earth approach to life means he is adored by generations of fans world over.
Happy 81st Birthday, Donald Duck!

Hello everyone,
Today is the 23rd anniversary of the grand opening of Disneyland Paris' main theme park!
Often described as the most beautiful of all the Magic Kingdom style parks, it features the gorgeous Sleeping Beauty Castle, and incredible detail in every land, attraction, boutique and restaurant. Parc Disneyland at Disneyland Paris is simply stunning.
So, in our usual tribute style, I'm going to post some of Character Central's pictures below, for your enjoyment!
Happy 23rd Birthday Disneyland Paris!
Of course, let's not forget that Disneyland Paris features its second park, the Walt Disney Studios, plus seven themed hotels, Golf Disneyland, Lake Disney and Disney Village!
Happy 23rd Birthday Disneyland Paris!

 | Happy 63rd Anniversary Clarice! | |

On this day in 1952, 'Two Chips and a Miss' debuted, introducing the world to the glamorous and sassy Clarice. Working at the Acorn Club, she is the love interest of Chip and Dale. Sixty-three years later she is still as gorgeous as ever!
Clarice's appearances at the Disney Parks can often be sporadic, with her typically starring in more shows and parades in Tokyo than the other parks. With that said, we've been fortunate to see her on numerous occasions, and so in our usual style, let us celebrate her anniversary with a cavalcade of photos from our adventures with Clarice!
Happy 63rd Anniversary, Clarice!

Today is the 13th anniversary of the grand opening of the Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris. In the past the park has often been criticised for lacking any good, solid attractions and shows, however, time has been good to the park, and with the addition of the Ratatouille attraction last year, the park has now really started to come into its own. With 18 full attractions and permanent long-term shows - six of which are completely unique to the park! - it actually currently has more attractions and permanent shows than Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Epcot or Disney's Hollywood Studios. While you can argue that those parks have a lot more non-fixed entertainment and good dining options, it is undeniable that the Walt Disney Studios is, finally, stepping up its game. The new Ratatouille attraction has become one of my favourites in the whole Disney Parks world, and I hope that it is a sign of the many good things to come over the next 13 years.
In our usual style, I'm going to share a cavalcade of photos from our many adventures at the park.
Happy 13th anniversary Walt Disney Studios Park!

Hello everyone,
Fourteen years ago today, the then-named Disney's California Adventure Park opened its doors for the first time. Since then, the park has undergone huge changes, eliminating entire lands and building new ones from scratch. It has probably undergone the largest transformation in the past 5 years alone than most parks have in their entire lifespans. Disney California Adventure, as it is today, is a tribute to the unending dream of Walt Disney, to keep moving forward and to continue to bring joy to people all around the world.
Let's take a look back at some of our favourite moments from the park over the years.
Happy 14th anniversary Disney California Adventure!

Today, 25th January, is the 54th anniversary of the release of Walt Disney's classic, 101 Dalmatians.
Not too many characters from the film have ever appeared at the Disney parks around the world, and sadly of the few that have appeared, we have only met Cruella de Vil. So, here's Cruella on one of the many occasions we've met here, this time at Tokyo DisneySea's American Waterfront.
Happy 54th Anniversary Cruella!
