Disneyland Paris Day 5 (Feb-March 2017)

Friday 3rd March- Last day This was our last day at Disney but still had an early wake up for our 7am-8am breakfast slot but instead of going straight to the park like previous days we headed back to our hotel room and packed up the last of our stuff and then went to the park where the bus was obviously busier because it was later in the morning and a little kid pushing passed me whilst I tried to put my suitcase on the bus. We went through bag check with our cases and headed round to the storage place and put them in there. We still had a while in the park as our Eurostar was at 4:52. We decided to meet up with Kelly and Alex for lunch about 1 so we had the morning to ourselves. Luckily, we still got to the park for about 9 so we went and waited at the side entrance for Frontierland like we had the previous day to get Big Thunder Mountain Fastpasses which again we were successful in getting. First ride of the day was the ride that we had consistently been on everyday of our ...

Disneyland Paris Day 4 (Feb-March 2017)

Thursday 2nd March (My Birthday) To start the day we had a reservation at Café Mickey for breakfast which was the one thing I really wanted to do this holiday and it was so worth it. It was a hot and cold buffet and the food was so lovely I think we had 3 helpings each of the food. The part that made this was the character interaction we had also because I had my birthday badge on it made the interactions even better. We met Mickey first who was great then it was Dale who was the best because Alex didn't know which chipmunk he was so that was fun because then Dale just started messing about with Alex and we all got photos and he noticed my badge as well.  Next was Chip who wasn't the best to meet because you could tell he was in a rush so he came to the table we had to take photos in pairs then he moved on. Next was Tigger who was amazing we got a group picture with him but he took time with us and wanted to sing me Happy Birthday which is cute. The last character we met ...

Disneyland Paris Day 3 (Feb-March 2017)

Wednesday 1st March This was the day that we decided that we spend it separately in our couples and that was nice to have but we did still have dinner together so the catch up was nice.  Fantasyland Tea Cups Like the previous day we had breakfast early and made our way to the park ready for Extra Magic Hours. We got quite a few rides done they were Peter Pan, Pinnochio, Dumbo, Buzz and Orbitron then we had a walk around Main Street then decided to join the ridiculous queue that happens for the opening of Frontierland because everyone wants to get on Big Thunder Mountain which we decided we were going to try and get Fastpasses for. We managed to get them for 1:05 which I think was achievement considering how far back we were in queue to get into the land and then the queue for the fastpasses it was crazy but we got them. We did a bit of shopping and popped back to the hotel to drop the shopping back by this time we had killed enough time for Big Thunder Mountain. Before going o...

Disneyland Paris Day 2 (Feb-March 2017)

Tuesday 28th February Our very exciting first full on day in Disney started with a 6:30am alarm as we picked the earliest breakfast slot which was 7am-8am. Breakfast was a standard cold buffet breakfast so I just had some orange juice and 3 croissants and I was set to go, we had to run for the bus (story of our trip) and got to the park and through bag check for 7:50am ready for Extra Magic Hours. I was surprised how many people didn't get to the park for the 8am but this meant it was easier to get on rides in Fantasyland and Discoveryland. The first ride we went straight for was Peter Pan because it was quiet and the queues for this ride in usual opening hours is ridiculous because it's such a child friendly ride. This is a beautifully visual ride and had to be my 2nd favourite ride of the trip it was just beautiful and Peter Pan is one of my favourites. However, this ride is a track in the ceiling sometimes I felt like the boat was a bit jumpy but apart from that I ...

Disneyland Paris trip Day 1 (Feb-March 2017)

I'm back from my first ever trip to Disneyland Paris which I took last week and now I am going to share with you my experience and what we did on each day. We stayed from Monday 27th February until Friday 3rd March. Me and my boyfriend Darren stayed on site at Hotel Cheyenne whilst Kelly who is Darren's sister and her boyfriend Alex stayed off site at Magic Circus Hotel but had Annual Passes to still get the Disney perks. Monday 27th February 6am wake up ready to get to Bedford station to get down St Pancras for our 10:14 Eurostar. To get ourselves in the Disney mood we put a Disney CD on in the car. Once at St Pancras we got McDonald's breakfast which I had never had but thoroughly enjoyed and was much needed after the early start to the day. The check in process at St Pancras for the Eurostar was quite easy and relaxed. I found the whole experience very pleasant and stress free. We arrived into (station name) 3 hours after getting on the Eurostar and the weather...

Disneyland Paris Bucket List

There are so many things I obviously cannot wait to do and experience when I go to Disneyland Paris, so I have a list of 5 things I really want to do whilst I am there. Meet Winnie the Pooh- I love Winnie the Pooh so much and so does my boyfriend so it will be something really special for both of us if we get to meet him. I also want to experience a character meet and greet so this gets both of them done. Be last on Main Street- I feel like this has become such a trend that people want that perfect Main Street photo after the fireworks have finished and everyone has emptied out and I am no different I want that very special photo, I would also love to be first on Main Street as well but we shall see. Have a Glowtini- This is something I am going to make happens they just look really cool, I have also looked at what is in it and sounds like something I very much like, however I really want the Tinkerbell that sits on the side of the glass instead of the glowing ice c...

Disneyland Paris Itinerary

On the 27th of February I will be going to Disneyland Paris for the first time ever for 4 nights. So I thought it would be nice in the lead up to the trip to do a little Blog series about it, as a way for me to document and remember this trip. I thought the best way to start this off is to share a load down of the trip itinerary. However, this is not set in stone and could changed but this is what we have discussed. There are 4 of us going on this trip there is me, my boyfriend (Darren), his sister (Kelly) and her boyfriend (Alex). Me and Darren are staying on Disney property at Hotel Cheyenne and Kelly and Alex are staying at the Magic Circus Hotel which is a Disney partner hotel. MONDAY 27TH FEBRUARY We probably have a wake up call of about 6am so we can get dropped off to get the train to St Pancras which is at about 7:55am. Once we get to St Pancras which is scheduled to be 8:40am then we'll collect our Eurostar tickets and stock up on food for the journey as well as g...
