It's Disneyland Paris!!!!

As a young adult, it's rare that I get the opportunity to unashamedly feel and act like a complete child again. Let alone be encouraged to do so; I'm talking fairy floss, novelty hats, oversized pencils and souvenirs galore. But visiting Disneyland Paris was an opportunity to once again embrace childish silliness, banish boring adult inhibitions and let ourselves be overwhelmed by all things Disney. Although brief, in a word Disneyland Paris was ohmygoodnesswowamazing!


Oh hi there Minnie and Mickey!!



Whether we were 'flying' in a pirate ship through Peter Pan's fantastical 'Neverland', or sailing through the ruined, havoc-wrecked towns from 'Pirates of the Caribbean', it was just too easy to be taken over by the ubiquitous magic-filled excitement in Disneyland. 13 blissful hours were spent running from ride to ride, travelling from one 'world' to another, soaking up as much excitement as was possible.

Disneyland, fraught with dangerous creatures



So much fairy floss = so much money

Jump if you love Disneyland!

Teacups!!!!

The day concluded and reached a spectacular climax with the 20th anniversary sound & light show. With Sleeping Beauty's towering castle acting as both a giant projector for our beloved animated Disney characters to frolic on, and as a platform for the magnificent fireworks display which followed, it's safe to say we were absolutely gob-smacked at the sheer amount of brilliance that we were witnessed before us! Never before have I been so awe-struck by a , and it wasn't hard see why Disneyland is the place “where dreams come true.”  

Wow!

Phwoar!

That's bonkers!!

  1. We enjoyed reading your latest blog and can fully understand how much you loved Disneyland. We went to Disney world in Florida, and went back to our childhood and like you had a ball. The only thing we can not understand is how they let you out!! We were excited to read that you have booked your flight home. Counting down!!!! Heaps of love, Go Roos. Nan & Pa XxXx
