Once again we are up early to take advanage of our early magic hours and we have the same all you can stuff breakfast. Me and the kids break away and dash upstairs to have a quick photo with pooh
It is good to have the characters in the hotel.
Today is about getting on the rides we have not managed yet and doing the ones we love again!
We have to get the obligatory castle photo
closely followed by another classic
We are of course in fantasy land and the first ride we get to is Pinochio - some are more excited to be on this than others
Next we do Peter Pan which of course is a must for every trip. I get a photo of the kids boat which has Terry and Sara in the back
I really enjoyed this ride and the fun continues with Dumbo as the queue is fairly short
I miss out the teacup ride as I know the spinning rides are just not for me, but Sara braves this one with the kids
The park is now fully open and beginning to get busy and we decide to head over to the studios as there are a number of atttractions we have not done yet, especially the crush ride.
We do however get sidetracked by Minnie
Crush is way too busy and there are no fastpasses for this ride. The queue for Armagedon is fairly short so we go on this and then straight into the Action Moteurs show
This is good as always and then we find something new - Stitch Live. I was not sure what to expect but did enjoy it - very similar to the crush show at Epcot. The kids have another ride on Tower of Terror and get the front row.
I managed to find a number of items in the Tower of Terrow gift shop, including a Stitch Pumkin for Mandymouse and a halloween hairclip for myself.
Next was the backlot tour which I admit to not finding very exciting.
The Crush ride is still far too busy and it looks like we will have to have another holiday to Disneyland Paris as we are not going to make it on this ride on this trip. Any Excuse!!!!
One last shot before leaving the Studios
Terry and Sara have some shopping to do and the rest of us head back to the Disneyland Park as we still have not seen the dragon
As we leave the castle we bump into a show
On the way out of the park Lisa's family buy Terry a present for this birthday which we are celebrating tonight (two days early). They purchase a lovely Disneyland Paris tankard with his name engraved on it. We buy another four Mickey Mouse glasses to match the two we got earlier and I get a Disneyland Paris photo albumn. Kirsty buys a Mickey Mouse alarm clock.
As we leave the parks we bump into Terry and Sara and we go to Annette's for a milkshake.
Before getting ready for tonight's meal we sit out on the veranda with some drinks
I have a pina colada
We tear oursleves away and get ready for tonight's surprise for Terry. Well it is meant to be a surprise meal at Hunters the restaurant in our hotel but apparently Terry has found out, but hopefully he does not know about this surprise cake.
We just have enough time to get ready and go downstairs for our meal. It is a buffet and there is loads of choice. Early on we give Terry his cards and presents
After we have eaten our main course the cake comes and it looks huge
It turns out to be just the top cake and is delicious.
A little boy from a neighbouring tables comes over with his bowl and Terry kindly gives him some.
We have had a great time here in Disneyland Paris and it is sad to be leaving.
Me and Mark are leaving very early as we are driving to Spain for another week's holiday but we find time to go to the arcade
A quick sit down before retiring to our room
Me and Mark wake up and 3:30 a.m. and get up and go. It is fairly miserable weather all the way through France but as soon as we get close to the border the sun comes out and the temperature rise and the roof comes down.
We get to our place in Spain by 6:30 and catch up with our neighbours
Some of the others go for a final morning in the Disneyland Park and catch the 2:10 Calais ferry back home
Another great Disney holiday. The planning now starts for the nine of us to to WDW in the Spring.
