Arh France - I will never be bored coming to this country. As most Aussie travelling to Europe knows that it takes, what seems like, forever and dreaded jetlag affects most of us but when we walked into Disneyland Paris all that was forgotten and we suddenly had a burst of energy - where to first !!! We found out it was the last weekend of school holidays so needless to say Disneyland was packed but not claustrophobically so.
For all those times I complain about Russi going away for week pale in comparison for times like this when Virgin upgraded us from premium economy to business class for the 14 hour flight to Abu Dhabi which was a welcoming surprise as we managed to get a lot of sleep, as on our 7hr flight to Paris we didn't. Also being travelling he gets to stay in a lot of different hotel chains which includes Radison Blu so we stayed here for 2 nights for 6 euro - BONUS !! It is only a 10 minute shuttle ride to Disneyland & the train station from the hotel.
We arrived at the hotel and had a 3 hour nap then headed off to Disneyland at 5.00pm - with our first ride being the "teacups" my favourite ride !!!! As usual we are the "snap happy Skilleter's" and camera's, iPhones, video cameras were clicking away LOL. So many little girls were dressed up as princesses & they looked adorable. We were surprised in seeing no Disney characters wondering around so we could our picture taking with them. So glad we bought a lot of warm clothes as currently it is 10 degrees with a wind chill factor of - 20 brrr dam cold.
An eventful first day now for a good nights sleep in these very comfortable beds. Ciao :))
