Staying at the Disneyland Hotel was the right decision. The Cast Members are all amazing. I speak conversational French but they went out of their way by speaking English and Spanish to me to make my family and I feel even more welcome.

The rooms and facilities are amazing! Ours had a view of Fantasia Gardens and the Main entrance to Disneyland Park. Plus we were fairly close to the Main Gate, Inventions, the Main Lobby and the Hotel Boutique.

Breakfast at Inventions was delicious. We are early risers, so we were some of the first people to eat, and always had a table with a view of the Castle.

Both Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios are well themed, cool looking and only a few feet from the Hotel, so we got to park hop a lot with virtually no lines, except for Crush... the most we waited to get on it was 30 mins. Of course having Early Morning priviledges and VIP Fast Passes from the Hotel made a huge difference during our stay.

DREAMS! The show is amazing. I have no words to describe it, except it's someone everyone must experience at least once in a lifetime. It puts both Fantasmic and World of Color to shame.

Smokers: They were everywhere... while waiting for parades and shows, in lines to get on rides, outside hotel and park gates... I mean... WOW! We even had to ask the CMs a few times to ask people standing in line next to us to put out their cigarretes. Some were with little kids themselves.

Space Mountain Mission 2 was down... I was so looking forward to riding this coaster, but alas it didn't happen.

I wanted a picture with Remy at Cafe des Stars, but he never came to our table :( I did get to try some escargot and other yummy French food though.

Over all I had a great time thanks to all of you on here, and everyone at the resort. Look forward to going to Disneyland for the Holidays now, and hopefully Tokyo Disneyland sometime in the near future.

Glad you enjoyed your trip to DLP :thumbsup2

The Disneyland Hotel is wonderful, isn't it?! And the breakfasts are fab, especially when you can eat and enjoy the view of the castle. :goodvibes
 
Glad you had a great time :goodvibes

I would love to have seen your photos but unfortunately the links aren't working ..... :sad2:
 
Hello :goodvibes

Glad you had a great time. How was Paris ? :cheer2:

Would love to look at the photos ;)
 

Paris was great. A bit too fast paced and crowded for me, but got to see everything I wanted to considering we only had 2 days to spare before we went on down to Spain. :cloud9:

I'll check on the links. They were working last night.
 
Thanks for sharing your photos - love seeing DLP through new eyes and you have a good eye for detail. The weather didn't look so good but it certainly added drama to some of your scenic shots.

You will love Tokyo.

Thanks for the compliments. I've always been a photo freak, and I'm a very visual person. I love details, colors, and shiny objects, lol. I guess all that helps me take good pics.

Yeah, I knew it'd be raining the week we were going to be there, so I was more than ready for inclement weather. Still it wasn't as bad as what I imagined it would be. We got quite a few breaks of warm sunshine in between, and it never rained during Dreams! :thumbsup2 :yay:
