Our getaway to Disneyland



20th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris
The night version
We wanted to have a holiday before the arrival of the little one which means that we will be 'stuck' for another couple of years.  So, Disneyland Paris here we come!!
Sushi snack before boarding the plane
Keeping yourself entertained - for only 2-3 mins :)
 4 days 3 nights of fun, but the weather could have been better.  Still, the whole 'magical' feeling and the 'wow' factor was still there, especially during the parades.  Theme song was 'Magic Everywhere...' and cheesy slogan of the holiday was 'Disneyland - where dreams do come true' :) 

Your favourite - Buzz and Woody

Icon of Disneyland - Sleeping Beauty Castle


Meet Mickey Mouse - we ended up paying for the souvenir photo
Pluto in the hotel we stayed in - Newport Bay
Buzz doing lift-ups with you - You giggled non-stop
Of all the toys, you only wanted T-Rex the dinosaur (Toy Story)
Lots of live shows which we all really enjoyed, you: Disney playhouse live, me: Animagique and Ric: Cars spectacular

Thankfully it was low season so we waited an average of  only10-15 mins for all the rides and went on all the rides that we could go on (some even twice).  I suppose this is the trade off for being in the cold but worth it coz I cannot imagine how restless you would have been if we had to wait longer than this.  Your favourite ride was the carousel where you chose the biggest horse, followed by 'Autopia' which was driving cars.







Disneyland train
 Choo-choo!!!

When we arrived home, you went straight for your trainset :)  Despite all the excitement and fun, think you still missed home and your familiar toys...

Can see he absolutely enjoy the trip & the Disney characters - definitely this will be one of his many childhood highlights. May be in 3 years' time, a family re-visit of the Place will be even more sweeter!
