And indeed my boys convince me to be back. After so many trips lost count to the Orlando property and two times in Disneyland Paris, we were back. A bit short on personnel , two dear women missing but we were back along with our dog Rex for the first time!!! Disneyland can be repeated but always magical once in it and with family even better! We took a tour of been with the family for more serious matters (see post) and then came to our hotel, and Disney Village, before finally hitting Disneyland Paris. Here is a brief of our stay as too much to cover in one post and too many pictures!!! Hope you enjoy it as we!
Well where can I start! We were staying in a Disney hotel (see post) so we had the magic card that allows you to go in first at 8h30 when the rest come in at 9h30. However, this is a gimmick in my opinion because most of the rides if not all starts at 10h; no need to walk around for over an hour and not able to get on a ride!!! It goes without saying that if I have the priviledge of entering earlier as staying in a Disney hotel I should be able to get on the rides first too! So enouth of my rant lol!!
The walks and rides, and eateries were tops of course, and we really enjoyed it . I took the sacrifice of staying with my Dad on his wheelchair and my boys got on the rides. My other boy Rex stayed very nicely well behave in the hotel!!
We started by the entrance from the parking and then straight to Main street, where we decided to hit Disneyland Parc first and later see my post on Walt Disney Studios. This one is on Disneyland parc ok
The boys first rides were on Autopia and the Star Wars tour which I know my favorite is the star wars (I got me a mug !) . No need to explain the rides , you know what they are, besided I would do a lousy description of them !
Next they hit Buzz Lightyear which is one of my favorite character! And we took the Mesa riverboat ride!!! we got to go all!!!
Finally, the boys went to the Pirates of the Caribbean, another favorite ride we love always! As you can see we passed by many rides but did not go in either because we had a priority list to see or because we are not fond of them. This is it!
We had our lunch at the Last Chance Café in Frontierland but figure was not worth it even for a picture; simply street food and very expensive for a few nachos for 6 euros! We did enjoy the ice cream from Ben & Jerry at the The Gibson Girl ice cream parlor on Main Street. And were glad to catch some of late evening parades, nice!
And we had it for a day of mostly walking around and seeing the rides of old , memories flashing and glad to be back after all. Disneyland Parc is recommended for all but especially school age kids! We had a good time and a nice package parks and hotel, so will be back with different formula next time. Stay tune for the next park….

There you go folks, another dandy in my belle France. This park beyond even my expectations is the No 1 visited park in France and Europe!! We saw the world here and its just beginning to kick out! Disneyland Parc is a must while in France ,again especially if with young children . We will be back!! Hope you enjoy the post.
And remember, happy travels, good health, and many cheers to all!!!
