Another look at DLP

http://www.orlandoparksnews.com/2015/06/disneyland-paris-review-good-and-bad.html

I've just booked a 3 night stay at DLP in November. I haven't been to the park since September 2012 but I am really looking forward to going.

I do agree with the costs of the hotels as pointed out in this review however. On my last visit we paid £358pp for 3 nights at the Sequoia Lodge, park tickets and flights from the UK. I have just paid the same amount to stay at the Santa Fe resort.

This will be my first time experiencing Disney at Christmas. I'm interested to see how I will compare it with Florida, now that I've visited WDW twice since my last trip to DLP.

This would be a really great service! Right now we usually once a trip have to pay a taxi to go for signature dining. I would love to see Disney implement a shuttle system of sorts that - even for a small fee - could take you directly resort to resort. Maybe it's something that only runs once an hour in the evenings, but it would still be a great service.

That would be a great service! We are already planning on getting a cab from AK back to VGF in September. I have no desire to make multiple bus trips at the end of a long day. I hope this works and they extend it!

Holy SHNIKEY They finally took my idea for a watch that goes on my Magic Band! It drives me crazy because I hate not having a watch on my wrist (yes - there's something wrong with me) but having BOTH a MB and watch drives me nuts too.

Dear God - I might actually have to buy some MB crap!

From what I've heard though, it's quite bulky and cheap. It's about the equivalent of a free watch you get in a happy meal. It also only comes in the dark grey color.

Count down until Frozen watch is unveiled.
