Made sure we were up earlier today to get in Disneyland and get full benefit of EMH.
Grabbed light breakfast and arrived as usual at New York Hotel to park.
It seemed colder this morning but still lovely and bright.
As usual Discoveryland was hit first with a family ride on Buzz then we ALL did SM2.

DD was feeling a bit off today so sat with me and Kristian whilst Dad and youngest hit the ride again.

We then made our way to Fantasyland which we had yet done as it no longer is the kids favourite area...too tame rides!

We walked right on to Snow White followed by Pinocchio.Peter Pan already had a huge queue as did Dumbo so we just walked around soaking the atmosphere.

As we had only eaten light for breakfast we decided to jump into Salon Mickey for a pick up of coffee and pain au chocolat. Kyle had a HUGE muffin and a cup of tea and Kristian ate 2 donuts and orange juice. Recharged we crossed over to the Studios where Juz did the FP run for TOT as I checked out Crush. 90 minute queue at 1010am!! RIDICULOUS!!

We walked over to Rock n Roller Coaster which again was a walk on. One ride that doesnt come close to its WDW counterpart.The 3 hardiest rode again while me and Kristian soaked up the sun.

As we passed TOT the air balloon was filming again

We then visit the Animation Studio where we got to draw MICKEY and got the Animators drawing to take home.

It was time for Tower of Terror and this time we were sent a different way so headed upstairs in the waiting area.Once agin the CM played a good part. The ride was heavy on my stomach again but good fun.
Kyle being a collector of everything Stitch bought one dressed in TOT outfit.
On the way back to the cabin we decided to explore a little and found Val d'Europ shopping centre purely by chance!!We strolled around Auchan then found a nice card /gift shop so Kristian could buy his DGF a gift for Valentines.We somehow managed to take the wrong exit coming out and where back on the way to Paris!!! Thankfully we managed to get to an exit to backtrack!
As we wanted to see the parade and Candelabration we decided to go back to the cabin for lunch today for an early break. Good old Pot Noodles brought from home with crusty bread filled a gap.
 
(CONTD)

Back to Disneyland park we took a spot at the start of Main Street to watch the parade. Last year we were in Walts and watched through the window so hadnt appreciated the smells also...very clever and a lovely parade.

After the parade we went to Cafe Hyperion for a snack and watched the Lion King. We all had chicken burgers but werent overly impressed with the food.We had planned on eating in the Steakhouse but after reading the half board menu decided the kids would be hard pushed to find something they liked.

We walked into the castle and looked around upstairs

We strolled around the park in the twilight then took our place to watch Candelabration

After the show we headed out through the Liberty arcade and waved bye to Mickey at the train station.

Back to DCR we drove up to the Trading Post for snacks then back to the cabin to pack ready to leave tomorrow.:sad2: :sad2:
