EuroDisney

We decided to go to EuroDisney. It was four fun filled days of Disneyland, Disney Studio’s, and Sealand (where a fantastic mall is ^_^).

Eurostar

The train ride was roughly 2 hours long. Going there was fairly easy. Everyone was excited despite the early hour.

Disney Village

Peter Pan Flight

This is one of the most popular rides in Fantasy Land. In general the rides were in French, but the kids didn’t seem to mind. They were just so interested in the rides and the excitement.  Although it did seem Russ knew Bonjour. Apparently they had a mock trip session at school a few months back. They each got a Eurostar ticket (The Train that takes you too France) and pretended to go to France.

Eiffel Tower, Small World Style

Buzz Cafe Fun

We had pretty good eats on the trip, minus the Buzz Cafe. The pizza looked cute with Mickey ears.

Lion King Show

This was definitely worth going early for. They had English versions and French for this show. Luckily the English one fit our schedule. It is almost an hour long show and is a full on musical. It was fantastic. Too bad Gia was zonked out for more than half of it. She would have loved it, but she started taking up her naps since the beginning of the trip.

Buzzlightyear Ride

The wait for the rides weren’t too bad. The worse one was probably 35 mins., but basically since it was cold outside and the kids energy levels couldn’t take a long day. We went at a slow pace, but we were lucky. We hadn’t done things during the night, but on sunday we decided to just go for it. Good thing we did. It seemed like the weekenders left on sunday so we got to get on our fav. rides up to 3 times. The kids were so happy.

Ahhh the warmth

We had just ridden the Tower of Terror. It was great. Right next door was the tram ride through the studio park, so we hopped on. There were two parts that had an explosion simulation. Needless to say the warmth was highly appreciated haha.

Christmas Market

They had this great Christmas market all along the side of the Disney Village. They sold mostly nick knacks and food.

Cafe Mickey

We decided to celebrate Gia’s birthday a little early and had a nice dinner and ordered a birthday cake for Cafe Mickey. She said she wanted to meet all the characters, but she really wasn’t having it, unless the characters were small like Mini and Mickey. She thought those big characters were creepy haha.

Animagique

This was another great show. It was a black stage and the characters had bright glowing colors on stage. Gia stayed up for this one. She really loved all the singing and dancing.

Stunt Show

This stunt show was just crazy. They had 5 cars on this small stage speeding and nearly colliding with each other. They had barely 3 ft. in between them I think. It was crazy. I wonder if they do this in the states. Anyways, once again Gia missed this one. She fell asleep on my lap. We were on bleechers. Lucky for us we had bought a Mini blanket so our bums weren’t freezing off.

Arg... it's cold!

Bummer

What a bummer, Russ so wanted to go on this ride. We assumed he would be able to go with Eliot, but wow, I think you have to be 4.5ft tall at least to get on. So we had to walk away. Oh well… at least we got to go on the pirate ride 3 times since there were no lines.

Ello me hardy...

We hopped on the train and went to a neighboring town. The Sealife was actually really well designed. It was also attached to a fantastic mall. Needless to say, the last day we were there was also a mommy day. I got some great accessories. Yeah! I had to break out my really poor French from many moons ago. What surprised me, was that I actually remembered the keys words and that people understood me.

Children's decor shop

Pucca Display

After my shopping spree, we hit the kid’s part of the mall. The children decor shop was so adorable. They had such great things. Also, the French seem to really be into Pucca. Funny… I think they believe it is a chinese or japanes thing, when in fact some of the bags they have on display is written in Korean.

Pit stop at the local book store.

Funny, we stopped at the book store. I guess even though they were in Disney Paradise, the kids just missed plain, sitting down and playing with blocks. They spent a good 30 mins. relaxing here. Gia also found a princess book. It was a beautiful book. Unfortunately she forced me to read it to her. I’m sure the girl watching the register had a nice laugh at my attempt. Haha.. I kept telling her I don’t know what most of the words mean. So I kept it real short. I put the book back, but a couple of days later at home she asked what I did withe that French book. Opse…

Sniff...

Sad Gia… as we were waiting for the train she had a few tears dripping down and told us she misses DisneyLand.
