Fab Five Pre Trippy

[Clairey123]

Ok i'm really excited and driving everyone mad!! Lol so going to do a trip report!!

Cast

Me (Claire) 25 been to DLRP Paris many times and Florida six. I LOVE all things Disney!! Have stayed in all the DLP hotels except The Disneyland Hotel! Will try it one day but can never justify the extra!! Favourite charicter is Ariel!!

Carl 27 - (My Boyfriend) Been to florida three times with me and DLP four times! He loves disney when we are there but I drive him a little bit mad with the planning!! Lol! Favourite film .. Toy Story.

Rach 25 - My friend since we were born and has never been to Disney!! Is expecting Alton Towers! Loves Beauty and the Beast!

Lee 28 (Rach's Husband). Loves theme parks but again, is a Disney Virgin!! Loves all the pixar films!!! Also expecting Alton Towers!!

Sami 26 - Has been to florida years ago but can't remember it too well! Loves sleeping beauty and has a phobia of flying uh oh!!

We go Feb 7th -10th and are staying in Santa Fe.

I've planned a few suprises for people! Mini personalised sweet goodie bags for the plane with personalised keyrings inside with DLP 2011 on and our names. And for the girls micky ears and personalised tote bags. I have also bought cheap DLP pins from ebay for Rach and Sam to trade and start a collection. and .... of course I have made groovey matching luggage tags. (I'm mad I know but very excited!!)

Ok so heres our rough itinery

Mon 7th Feb

Girls (and maybe carl) have the beautican coming round at nine for manicures and eyebrow shaping yay!! Lunch before going to the airport. Flying from Liverpool airport at 17.50 and arrive in Paris at 20.15 (I know it seems mad to arrive late but we got the flights for £20 each way so worked out cheaper to have that extra night!!) we have booked taxi transfers with ezy shuttle who have been fab, then check in at Santa Fe followed by drinks at sequia lodge by the fire before an earlyish night!!

Tues 2nd Feb

Disneyland Park (inc parade and thunder mountain in the dark) and Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in the evening (My Christmas present for everyone so hope its good!!)

Wed 9th Feb

Disney Studios and Cafe Mickey reservation at 7.30pm for some group character shots (hope they come to us even though we have no children )

Thursday 10th Feb

Things we've missed and everyones favourite rides again. Taxi picking us up at 6.20pm for a 21.25 flight back to reality!!

Only two weeks to go now so very excited!! Just hoping everyone enjoys it!! Hope I haven't hyped it up to much!! Also a little worried about santa fe!! But i loved it last time I went, and hey - ho, we will be arriving in the dark!! and we got a BRILLIANT price

Most looking forward to the first timers seein crushes coaster, tower of terror, moters action, rocking roller coaster, haunted mansion and pirates of the caribean!!

Thanks for reading everyone! Apologies for the awful spelling (where would I be without spell check now!!!) And any suggestions for a magial first trip would be great!!! x x x

this sounds so much fun I'd love someone to plan a trip for me

Wow who has been a busy thoughtful girl? What fantastic ideas you have come up with! My extra magic would be pop into Disneyland Hotel for cocktails on one of the evenings even if it is directly after parks close = lots of yummy cocktails and characters hanging around. Hope your friends are blown away by the magic!

Awww you are gonna have a great time! I am so excited for you
We went to DLP a couple of weeks ago most of us had been to WDW and I had been to DLP before (although it was 12ish years ago) but we took my sis bf who was a total disney Virgin! I was really worried that he would not really enjoy it as we are all disney nuts, but I was really pleased to be proven wrong! He loved it! I would say what he loved most (apart from the rides lol!) was the detailing and care compared to parks in the uk. So maybe take the time to do things like visiting the dragon and walking round the castle?

Hope you have a fab trip

 

[madmish]

sounds great, we will be there at the santa fe too

 

[kizzabel]

This looks fab, I would love to do an adult only trip but think dd would hate me forever lol The extras are great, I'm planning a little stroll over to the SL bar on our trip as never been in but sounds perfect. I hope all the planning pays off and you have a perfect trip
