Return of the Danes - pre-trippie

[the_princess]

I know that pre-trip report aren't a big thing here on the DLP board, but I'm too excited not to make one, so here we go.

Me and my mom are Disney freaks, yes let's just face it. We love 2 things in life: Shopping and Disney. So shopping at Disney is paradise! When we need at short break away from our every day lifes, we book a quick trip to DLP and if we need a nice long vacation, we go to WDW. That's it!
Well, now we need a quick break.
We found a 15 % off deal at SL (we don't get the 40 % off deals in Denmark)
SL is my mom's favourite hotel. Last time we stayed there, we ended up in a lodge down by Santa Fe. Quite a walk. So we decided that next time we would pay more and get a Montana room. I would rather stay at New York which is my favourite hotel but we can't afford that this time. This means that we just have to go again soon ;)
No I don't mind SL at all. They have a great pool and a nice bar area by the fire.

Ok so we found the hotel and decided to go in the beginning of May. Then the weather will be nice and warm but we won't hit the high season prices yet.
Both of us have some time of work there, so 3rd -5th of May would be great dates!
And how do we get there then. We want to get there in the morning and go home in the evening.
SAS has got some good flight times and the price is reasonable.
So now every is booked and ready. Now we have to plan the days (ok, we already have, but I don't have time to put it on here right now )

So next up: Time schedule and maybe some pics from previously trips!

Ok, let's get to the most interesting thing... What to do and when to do it!!!

Day 1:
Departure from CPH Airport at 8.20
Arrive at CDG at 10.20
We are only bringing hand luggage so we can leave the airport straight after landing.
Instead of going to DLP we are going to take the train into Paris for a quick walk around. We want to go to the Disney Store on Champ Elysee, see the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. Paris is my favourite city in the world, so spending a day there is always a most-do.
In the late afternoon we are taking the train to DLP where we are checking in to SL.
Then we are off to the main park which is open until 9 that evening.
Dinner: Rainforest Cafe.

Had to make a few changes on the dining plan. We are having lunch on the 2nd day at Plaza Garden (any review of the lunch there)
If we can't get tickets to Buffalo Bill, we'll have dinner at King Ludwig's castle on the 2nd night.
Instead of having lunch at Agrabah cafe on the last day, we'll have lunch at Rendez-vous de stars ( Well, if it's still a buffet )

It suddenly hit us that we are going to spend a Sunday in Paris... Hmm normally sunday means no shopping cause everything is closed, but after "talking" to a few of you out there, we've decided to take the chance and see if the shops on Champ Elysee ( including the Disney Store) are open.
We can always take an early train to DLP!

I love the Disney store in Paris, it's my favorite!

[the_princess]

5 days left!!!!
We are off in only 5 days... On Sunday, I can't believe that it's already this close.
I have changed to some Euro and I got all the papers ready. I'm ready!

Here are a couple pics of the hotel. SL is my mum's favourite hotel and since she is paying this time, she got to pick the hotel (There was a good deal on it)I don't mind, I like SL, it's a nice hotel. It's close to Village and the parks and we have a Montana room so we are close to the breakfast as well.
