Today is the 60th anniversary of the release of the Chip and Dale cartoon, Two Chips and a Miss (1952).
It was the only animated short to ever feature Clarice, and has earned her almost a cult status amongst character fans; which means it is also Clarice's 60th birthday!
It is one of the very rare occasions also where Chip and Dale work against each other - to win the sole affection of the beautiful singer, Clarice. Both madly in love with her, they try a variety of things to get her attention. In the end Clarice gives them both a kiss, and they sing the night away all together, at the club where she works, the Acorn Club.
Today, Clarice can be found in the Disney Parks worldwide, most notably in Paris and Tokyo.
So let's take a look at some of our favourite pictures of Clarice from our time at the Parks, and let's wish her a very happy 60th birthday!
Happy 60th birthday Clarice!

Today is the first day of Spring, so let's join the Disney Characters as they celebrate Springtime for Mickey at Disneyland Paris!
This was a one time special event we attended last year, and featured some neat spring themed outfits complete with flowers, bugs and more, which I thought was appropriate for today!
So let's celebrate the joy of Spring now with Mickey and Friends, with the pictures below! [ Read More... ] |

Hi all,
Today marks the 45th anniversary of the opening of the original Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in Disneyland, California.
Of course we are a Character site, and Pirates of the Caribbean inspired the movie series. From that we were given probably one of the most popular characters in recent history, Jack Sparrow.
As well as Captain Jack, we have also seen Angelica and Captain Barbossa appear in the Parks.
So, to celebrate here are some pictures of them at the Parks!
Happy 45th anniversary Pirates of the Caribbean!

 | Disney Cruise Line Trip Report Part Two! | |

Hi all,
Welcome to part two of my Disney Cruise trip report!
On day 2 of our Disney Cruse we started off with a buffet breakfast at Topsiders. As I mentioned in my previous report, Topsiders is very busy and chaotic, and probably my least favourite place to dine. It is strange because we got the impression from various things, that some people didn't actually attend their rotation restaurants a lot of the time, which seems a complete waste of money to us. The cruise costs enough, and the other dining offering are far superior, so why eat there?
Anyway, after breakfast we decided to hunt characters. Easier said than done!
Here we hit our second major drawback of the cruise experience - the other one that would prevent us from immediately returning (the other was the no pictures in the shows, you may recall from part one). [ Read More... ] |

Hi all,
Welcome to this first part of my Disney Cruise trip report! In this report we'll be going through the embarkation process and first days' events aboard the ship.
As you all know, Jon and I travel frequently to all the parks around the world, but until this trip had yet to experience a Disney Cruise.
I can't say for sure why we hadn't done one sooner, but life has many things that it brings our way, and we can't be everywhere at once, sadly!
To begin with, for your reference, we sailed on the Disney Magic, on the 7 night Eastern Caribbean cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida.
We had two full days and a morning in Walt Disney World before hand, and a day and a half afterwards. Of course, we travel to WDW often so I won't bore you with all the details, except we had an amazing time as always, and got to see our favourite characters, shows and parades. [ Read More... ] |

Hi all!
Sorry it has taken a few days to get this first proper update on the blog, but as you can imagine, after 10 days away, we had a lot to attend to upon our return.
Anyway, I can assure you that over the coming days I will of course be writing all my thoughts in an extended trip report, and updating various areas of the site with new information.
A few new pages have already started to appear; the eagle eyed among you may have spotted some already!
Until my first full report, that's all for now,
