Donald Duck meet and greet under construction at the Mexico pavilion
A new permanent meet and greet is under construction at the Mexico Pavilion. Similar to the recently built location for Snow White in Germany, this new area being built next to the current meet and greet area will provide a backdrop for photos, and a more organized queue. It should open within the next month

Sounds cool... as long as it doesn't stick out too much and ruins the current theming. Check the link above for photos of the green construction walls.

Donna's daughter is a big Donald fan, and they will be at WDW next month. I'm sure she would be interested in this, especially with its proximity to the frozen Margarita stand.
I'm holding out for an Angus meet and greet at Rose and Crown.

| Donald is usually one of the harder characters to find around for pictures... This is good for the donald fans. I wonder if they will add the other 2 amigos as well. |

| Mexico is the only place I've seen Donald in recent memory (apart from Character dining) decked out in his poncho and sombrero. |

| Donald is a hard character to cast because of his small size. |

He can be easily found at Epcot... over at Character Connection, they usually have the Fab Four there most of the time. Unless it is between shifts.

I think we've found her replacement job for when the store closes!

He's certainly not much of a roamer around the parks though. I had my picture taken with him in Mexico one afternoon several months ago when I was roaming around Epcot, but the CM didn't know how to use my iPhone for the picture. They hit the button to go back to the main screen instead of the one to take the photo, and by the time I noticed, a line had formed.  |

I've run into him there in Mexico as well...never a line. Sounds like with a new greet area, no more pictures with Donald for me
Ah well...
