As you know, I spent last week at Disneyland just outside Paris.
The place was swarming with delightful princesses and funny head gear.
These three Mickeys (or should I say ‘goofies’?) caught my eye.
‘Ear they are. (Pun intended!) Meet the family…
If you’ve ever been to a Disney Resort, then you know that you need the stamina of a marathon runner.
With aching feet in temperatures of over 30 C the first day, I wanted whatever he was smoking…
We were overjoyed to find a rat in our food
And I stayed firmly on the ground as I let the others get slung into orbit on Space Mountain.
There’s nothing more exhausting or fun than getting into a festive mood every day and just enjoying life.
I dedicated myself to the task. After all, it was the Minnie-mum I could do.

Fiona, this looked like a lot of fun! That’s the only way to ‘look’ at it……there to have fun! Never been to any of the Disney sites..but hear they are a blast!
Like the effect of the Space Mt. photo.

So wonderful to finally meet your entire family. I’ve been to Disneyland in California, but not Paris. I wonder if it’s very different. Our is so crowded that you wait one-two hours per ride, which takes the fun away sometimes.

The longest wait was around an hour. But we went early in the morning and managed to do a lot of rides before the park opened to the general public.

Looks like you all had a great time, and you got some lovely photos. I wonder if The Temple of Peril is still there…? I took my elder son on it about ten years ago. Afterwards we were both so shaken we could barely walk! It turns out the backwards-facing seats are NOT a safety feature, but stop you seeing what’s coming next and therefore add to the horror. Your children are just a little bit older than mine were at the time. Hope they had a fab time.

You right about needing the stamina of a marathon runner. Over the years I’ve been there umpteen times with my children (Eurodisney is just up the road from us) and it is a joy to watch them have fun. Some of the rides are fun for adults but the queuing usually did my head in!

Just to get back to you on hotel choice – Hotel New York for the first few years but Disneyland Hotel for the past five! Good for us because we can leave the parks quick if it all gets all too much for Murray and we can be back in the hotel room really quickly! He can have reallly good days but sometimes it all suddenly gets too much for him so a quick escape is wonderful! Also, having the characters at breakfast and dinner is a huge plus for him – photos with the characters is one of his main joys!

How nice to see lovely pictures of you and your family! I know how tiring and fun at the same time at the Disneyland in summer. We had to stand in a long queue for popular attraction, so we always dashed to somewhere. If I rode on a hair-raising coaster at this age, I might become sick. Thank you for sharing your honest feeling and reminding me of the time gone by. Stay cool, and happy days ahead.
