I know it may be a bit early to be doing a PTR but im too excited!!! And I have also noticed other June 2011 PTR's up lol

So let me introduce myself, I'm Rachel and I am a MASSIVE Disney fan! I have been to DLP twice before and WDW three times. I am seventeen and currently finishing Upper Sixth so me and my friend have decided to have a holiday to DLP to celebrate the end of exams/school!
My friend Natascha is a Disney fan aswell and we both have quite similar tastes when it comes to rides etc.

Holiday Details -
Me (Rachel) - 18 (Well I will be when we go :)) and Natascha - 18
22nd - 25th June
Staying at Santa Fe Hotel
Flying from Dublin Airport to CDG

The plan:
Tuesday 21st June - Tascha wll be doing her last A-level exam in the morning and we have planned for my mum and me to pick her up sometime in the afternoon. We will then travel down to my Granny's house down in Drogheda where we will stay overnight. My mum has taken some time off work so she will stay at my Granny's house and will be able to take us to the airport and pick us up

Wednesday 22nd June - Very early start for us!!! About 3am we think, we have to be at Dublin Airport by 5am. We are flying with Aer Lingus and our flight departs at 7am and we should arrive in CDG airport at 9:45am. We will then get he VEA coach to Santa Fe. After checking in we shall walk to Disney village to hav lunch at McDonalds (We are on a budget here lol).
So we should arrive at the Disneyland Park for 1pm . We intend to do Adventureland and Fantasyland that day and have dinner at Pizzeria Bella Notte. Then it will probably be back to the hotel via Disney Village (just to do some window shopping)

Thursday 23rd June - We are going to have Breakfast at the hotel before heading to Walt Disney Studios . We intend to do most of the attractions if we can lol. We then have a special treat for dinner that night . You see my 18th birthday will have been about 2 weeks beforehand. So my auntie has decided that as my birthday present she will pay for us to have dinner at Cafe Mickey . So this is kind of my birthday celebration and my friend is going to give me my birthay present then aswell (which will be a pin that I will have picked out the day before lol). After dinner we intend to do some shopping aswell (Well we are women and Disney fans ).

Friday 24th June - Our last day in the parks! We are going to return to the Disneyland Park for EMH and concentrate on Discoveryland and Frontierland during the day before going on our favourite rides agian .We will have dinner at Cafe Hyperion. Well we were attending the Pirates and Princess Party but now since it is cancelled will settle for meeting the characters in Hurricanes.

Saturday 25th June - We are going to have a bit of a lie in today. We will have breakfast at the hotel before getting the VEA coach to CDG airport. We will then arrive back in Dublin at about 3pm where my mum will pick us up and we will then travel back up to Northern Ireland.

So thats our trip :) Only 7 weeks and 1 day away!!!!

And a very worthwhile treat after the stress of exams! (Good luck with those by the way! :goodvibes)
 
Seems like a life time ago now but me and my best friend went to disneyland paris after our A-levels. Stayed at the Santa Fe as well, loads of fun memories of the parks and late night cocktails in the Rio grande bar We had a fab time and I'm sure you will do as well. Hope the exams go well.

Thank you to everyone who has left comments! And yes it is a easier knowing that after these exams I'm going to DLP :cool1: although sometimes it can be a distraction :rotfl2:

Just an update, Me and Natascha have just started our A-level exams so that is taking up most of our time at the moment. So once my last exam is finished which is the 8th June, we will be doing the final planning then. We still have to book our tickets on the VEA bus, book Cafe Mickey and finialise our plan since I realised we could still go and do EMH on the last day before we get the VEA bus at 10:25 :cool1:
 
:goodvibes Good luck with your exams - I have just finished my university finals (and education forever, gulp) on Friday so now back into planning my trip with gusto lol. It really makes a difference suffering through exams when you haev a DLP trip to look forward to.
I get back on the 19th and will probably have my trip report up within a couple of days so you can read it before you go!
