Day 1 of 6 : I thought there would have been snow!
Day 2 of 6 : Oh there it is
Day 3 of 6 : Ooooo look at the pretty snow
Tuesday
An early morning view from our window.
Late start this morning 9.30am breakfast in the hotel so once we were all cleaned and dressed we went downstairs when we got to the stairs the queue was right up one side, so we went to the shorter queue on the other staircase - it was absolute chaos getting into the restaurants but okay once you had a table. I had standard breakfast, Josh picked over some cereal and Tracey enjoyed ham and cream cheese rolls and other breakfast fayre.
Arrived Disneyland at 10.45am and was quite shocked by the now. It had snowed well into the night and we were quite shocked that they had not cleared the paths although they were out with salt later.
Anyone for frosted mouse?
All wrapped up and ready for a cold day
Who took this photo?
One of the few photo's Josh would take his mits off to take
Do you think it looks busy?
Snowy castle
We headed straight for Buzzs Space Ranger Ride (another of Joshs favourites). I achieved one of my best scores ever at DLP over 400,000 (it stopped for ages next to a high score target) Josh was prepared as he had his own space gun from our previous trip in May. There was no waiting and we walked pretty much straight on.
Josh and I rode Buzz again and Tracey headed for Space Mountain 2 (another ride she didnt get done in May) there was only a 15 minute wait. Tracey will not be going back on it as she also didn't like getting her head bounced around.
When we met back up we all went to see the Nautilus Submarine again there was no wait. We somehow managed to miss this in May and it was well worth the walk through. Josh stood with me right at the barrier for the squid attack bu they need to fix the broken iris on the port hole.
It's a lot bigger on the inside
Unfortunately Autopia and the rockets were off because of the bad weather. We only saw them on once and the queues were to big for us to wait.
We all then headed to Star Tours (which Josh was tall enough to ride) there was only a ten minute wait. Josh quite enjoyed it at the time but if we ask him now he tells us he didn't like it.
Is that french Robot still behind us?
Then we were headed to one of Joshs Favourite, favourite rides Its a Small World. By this stage I was really starting to enjoy it.
I believe it was 11am when I took this picture.
Next we all did Spinning Tea Cups (another of Joshs favourites) then Josh and I rode it again straight away as there was no wait.
Tried to get somewhere for a late lunch but with no success so headed to Caseys for lunch Tracey and I had a set meal (think it was about 10 euros) of a long cheese hot dog, some chips and a soft drink. Josh had a childs meal chips, hot dog, soft drink and ice cream. As it was so cold Tracey also bought a hot coffee. Total 27 Euros. We sat in the arcade to eat it as it was absolutely freezing outside. It was not much warmer in the arcade maybe only 2 or 3 below freezing, my hotdog did not stay warm for long.
