I wish I would not have to cross the pond to get to WDW and my favourite cruise ships.
I wish that for you too
I REALLY love your room!!!

Okay, sticking with the news theme ......... Our cruise docs came today! Makes it feel so much closer AND we are under 1 month from our vacation. 30 more days and we'll be on the way to the US again.

The room was lovely, even though we were not happy with the bed situation.
We really like flying Lufthansa. And the other issue is that we like to fly out of our home airport and since it is tiny there is not much choice.
It is pricey but might choose NY. I am also looking at the Radisson outside the grounds and Holiday Inn. It will only be 1 night so don't need anything fancy.We used to stay at the Santa Fe for years, then ventured to stay offsite and have now found a nice little villa resort that gives you a whole house with all the amenities. Makes a lot more sense for us as we like to self cater.
But if we stay for very short trips or special occasions we really like the NY. But it is on the more expensive side.
Easyjet is the cheapest I have found so far. One way $73 euros. Not bad. I will do that too.As for your flights from Venice to Paris - be aware that here in Europe one way flights can often be FAR more expensive than round trip tickets. So don't rule out buying a round trip ticket and just forget about the flight back.
We arrive the 30th of September.When are you going to Paris? I guess it will not be the height of summer. We will be there next August for 10 days.
I have been looking at off site property. I will look up the one you mentioned. it is only me going to Disney as everyone else stays in the city.If you need any recommendations for hotels (there are good neighbour hotels) at DLRP, just let me know. The most economical on property is the Santa Fe. It is quite nice and just a 15 - 20 minute walk from the parks (easy walk and very scenic going past the Cheyenne, Sequoia and NY and through Disney Village). On property gives you EMHs in the morning (not many rides, but you get a fairly empty park) and Disney transportation.
For offsite (good neighbour) look at the Kyriad. They all offer free breakfast.
Won't be long! How wonderful you get to cruise again soon!
Very true, didn't even consider..ugh that's what I get for reading too quickly LOL. Two beds are always better than one...dh loves having a bed to himself..at home even when I am at work the pup takes up our king

The NY is very convenient as it is only a brief walk away from the parks. The Radisson is quite a way away and transport from offsite hotels (NOT the good neighbour ones) is sometimes pretty patchy.
The Holiday Inn is nice, but I think I'd rather stay at the Kyriad.
Easyjet is the cheapest I have found so far. One way $73 euros. Not bad. I will do that too.
I looked it up and yes it comes up pretty cheap - but please keep in mind that you need to pay for luggage and to reserve a seat. Some of these low cost carriers have really narrow seating, so Tom and I usually choose to sit in one of the rows with more space between rows - these are extra too.
We arrive the 30th of September.
This means we are missing you by around 6 weeks. Where else in Europe are you visiting?

Thanks for help.
Can't believe that in four weeks from now we will already be on our way to Orlando! We just heard that Captain Gus will be on the Dream then. You must just love him, as he really loves those Mickey whistles.
We love Captain Gus!!!!
Breakfast looks delicious!
Even though your were going to be out and about at the parks, it still stinks knowing your 'homeless' for half a day. But glad that you were able to change your breakfast time for the following day!
Wow the park is so gorgeous all decorated! Okay i'm trying to wrap my head around this. There are two entrances. Like California Adventure? Or is the other entrance very extravagent like the main entrance? Hope this makes sense
I just love seeing DLP. That Disneyland Hotel is just so stunning. I can't imagine how wonderful it looks in person. I'm glad you didn't have to wait long to get inside the park. Yup - the bag scan thing would irritate me too!
Wow...those decorations look fabulous!!!!
The decorations are awesome! It's funny how similar but different DLP is to DL in Cali Very neat, thank you for all the pics. That is really thoughtful of you to give the CM chocolates for her help. I am sure she LOVED them! AND you'll be back "home" soon (well your U.S.A. home anyway)
I'm really enjoying reading back through all your fun adventures at magicaldisneytrips.com. You've done a lovely job with the site. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so happy you enjoyed our other adventures as well.
I'm spending a lot of time there but I'm trying not to feel too guilty about all the screen time since technically I'm doing research for our first Disney cruise on the Magic in March and my first trip to DLRP in September.
I am sure you are going to love cruising with DCL. They do an awesome job when it comes to keep you happy!
And if you have any questions about DLRP, please just ask. I would love to help you out. Have you decided where to stay yet?
Again, thanks for sharing!
Question: Do you have a general idea of when the Halloween Decorations will be displayed at DLRP? I'm there the last week of September and I'm hoping to get to experience them. That would totally make my trip even more magical! I've seen Disneyworld at Christmastime but I have yet to experience the parks for Halloween. Thank in advance for any info you might be able to give.
There's nothing like hearing that WELCOME HOME
