Hello everyone,
Last weekend was the debut of the brand new Donald's Dino-Bash! festivities in Dinoland USA, at Disney's Animal Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. We were there for the opening of the event, so I wanted to share it all with you here.
Let's start with taking at look at some of the decor, before we move on to PhotoPass, magic shots, food, the dance party, and of course the character greetings.

Hello everyone,
Over three weekends in January and February DVC held another special Moonlight Magic event at the Magic Kingdom. I thought you would all like to see some photos from the characters we met at the event. The three hour event included some awesome long lost pals such as Little John, Koda and Kenai, the hyenas, and Herbie, plus more regular characters in special costumes, such as Chip 'n' Dale in their Rescue Ranger gear, Tiana and Naveen in their Royal Friendship Faire outfits, Donald and Daisy dressed for the Wild West, and Goofy and Pluto in their Mission Space suits.
Let's take a look!

Hello everyone,
A couple of weeks ago we had lunch at The Garden Grill, inside The Land pavilion at Epcot. We had eaten there several times in the past, but it had been several years, so we thought it was time that we went back to get an updated view.
The Garden Grill is a character dining experience, which has its own title of Chip 'n' Dale's Harvest Feast. Throughout your dining experience, Chip and Dale, as well as Mickey Mouse and Pluto, make their way around the restaurant for hugs, photos and autographs. Prices can be up to $60 per adult, depending on the time of day, plus tax and tip. You should plan to be in the restaurant for at least an hour. Reservations are accepted, and can be made on the My Disney Experience app.

Hello everyone,
In part one of this report I covered all the Disney Resort Hotels, the Disney Resort Line monorail, Ikspiari and other areas. In part two we explored World Bazaar and Adventureland. In part three we ventured into Westernland, Critter Country, Fantasyland, Toontown and Tomorrowland. In part four, I shared my photos from the Christmas parade, Dreamlights, Nightfall Glow and the fireworks. Now, in this part, we are going to explore three of the seven themed ports of Tokyo Disneyland's neighbouring park, Tokyo DisneySea.
The Tokyo DisneySea (TDS) entrance plaza is part of Mediterranean Harbor (Med Harbor), and where [ Read More... ] |

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!

Hello everyone,
In this fourth installment of this series we are going to take a look inside the wardrobe of that mischievous duo, Chip and Dale!
Let's start at Disneyland, California, where you can meet Chip 'n' Dale daily on Buena Vista Street at Disney California Adventure, dressed in their super cute period clothing!
Over at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, Chip 'n' Dale have found a new home amongst even bigger, better trees, this time with their furry friends, the Ewoks from Star Wars! (During Star Wars Weekends, May/June, annually)
Blast off into outer space with Chip 'n' Dale at Disneyland Paris' Discoveryland, where they don their space suits for some extraterrestrial adventures!
When they're not riding a comet in Discoveryland, you can catch them at Tokyo DisneySea's Port Discovery causing havoc as mad scientists!
The Gold Rush of the 1850s attracted many folk from all over, including prospectors Chip 'n' Dale! See them dressed ready to pan for gold at Hong Kong Disneyland's Grizzly Gulch.
Aboard Disney Cruise Line, Chip 'n' Dale take on a little more responsibility and join the crew for some extra magical fun across the Seven Seas!

Today is the 71st birthday of the adorable furry duo, Chip and Dale! First appearing on this day in 1943, they were seen causing Pluto trouble in "Private Pluto" - something which they have continued to do ever since! With their distinctive high pitched voices, hysterical laughter and obsession for acorns, they have won the hearts of millions world over.
At the Disney Parks and Resorts they can always be found greeting guests, starring in the parades and shows, and generally causing mischief where ever they go. We love meeting Chip 'n' Dale, and they are amongst our absolute favourite Disney pals to play with at the parks.
Thanks for all the fun and memories, and here's to many more years of cheeky laughter and fun!
Happy 71st Birthday Chip 'n' Dale!
In our usual style, here's a photo cavalcade of some of the fun times we've had with them at the parks over the years.
