Not sure if this should be posted here, or if it needs a thread of its own, but here is Fern's Journal from her second visit to
Disneyland Paris. Mods - feel free to move if you feel this should be somewhere else.
Friday 21st March 2008
Fern has joined kevankiki for her next trip to Disneyland Paris. Her journey this time was via the Eurostar direct service so she was very excited, as she had only been by plane before, so travelling by train was a new experience. She managed to pinch some of the sandwiches and crisps that were being munched during the journey, and even blagged a whole strawberry to herself! Arriving at 12.30pm they walked to the Sequoia Lodge, via Newport Bay, as they didnt know the way! Check in was reasonably quick, and they had been upgraded to a Montana Room, which was located in the South Wing on the 3rd floor. A kettle was rented, so there was tea, coffee, and most importantly biscuits Fern was home! In the hotel lobby we spotted Eeyore he took a liking to Kimee and wanted to take her away with him. Fern was excited for a moment, as there were two double beds in the room, and if Kimee was going then she had the best chance of getting one to herself! They headed off to the park...
...and went on Phantom manor, traditionally the first and last ride, and Pirates of The Caribbean, and then they watched the parade.
Fern enjoyed her time with kevankiki, they went on lots of rides, and she enjoyed having her photo taken on Buzz, helping Annette to beat Kimee for a change too!
There was a bit of a panic when Annette lost her Dream Annual Pass, and when they went to Guest Relations the following morning they learned it had been confiscated, as someone had tried to get into the park with it that morning! Luckily Annette had reported it lost to City Hall the previous evening, so after some debate they handed it back, and bother passes were able to be renewed for a further year, as planned.
Fern managed to get on most of the rides she had not been on already, I believe that only Alices Maze is left on the list now. She loved being allowed to steer the car on Autopia...
She would also like to meet some of the characters, though she did see a few from a distance Buzz Lightyear for example, and characters from Robin Hood. She enjoyed eating in Bella Notte again, and Annettes. And when she got tired she relaxed in one of the prams outside Ribbons & Bows...
Either this one:
or this one.....?
But all too soon the weekend was over, and it was time to take the Eurostar back to the UK. Fern is looking forward to her next trip to Disneyland Paris, hopefully in April.
