Disney day!!! Yes, today we spent our time in the cultural capital of France, Monsieur Disney's European outlet, Disneyland Paris. It was an early start to make sure we arrived on time (aka opening time), and we grabbed a pain au chocolat before getting le Metro, and the RER straight to Marnee Vallee. Once we arrived, we were in a complete state of wonderment, so many characters, so many rides, so many shops, we didn't know what to do! So we did what everyone should, take a picture with the princess castle, before wandering onwards. Unfortunately, a few rides were closed, namely Indiana Jones and Space Mountain, but that didn't mean no rides, we jumped on the Dumbo ride first, for a throwback to younger years, before going on Buzz Lightyears Laser Blast (Harvey won), and into the haunted house, all of which were great, if not lacking in adrenaline.
For lunch we headed to the Last Chance Saloon, and ate some lovely burritos, wings, stuffed jalapeños and taquitos, before heading to park number 2, Walt Disney studios. Here is where the big boys are, Aerosmith, Tower of Terror, Crushs Coaster, and most importantly, Toyland! We decided to go on ToT first, and our picture was an amazing combination of joy, screaming and buttock clenching, as our bag nearly flew away. Then it was Aerosmith time. We queued (and queued and queued) for a chance at the fastest ride at Disney, and we weren't disappointed, with screams again a major focus. With this done, we went and watched the parade, which is another must see, before heading back. With a Harvey cooked meal in our bellys, we relaxed, watched Netflix and fell asleep, all in quick succession. On to the next day!
