As some of you maybe know, I have been quite a couple of times to DLP this year. Thank you company for sponsoring my transportation 
As some of you maybe know, I have been four days last week. Well, 1 day at provins, 2 days at the parks and one day shopping at La Vallée. (I still have to write this trip report, but th food pictures are already online). I have bought a few items at La Vallée, and had been looking at a Samsonite laptop case. The company provided us with the most ugly, awful laptop case, and I simply refuse to use that one to go to the client. So I needed a new one. But at the end of the year, we will get new laptops, and I was not sure which size they would be. Until Friday... when I found a link on the intranet to a page with all the details.
And then I started thinking about that wonderful laptop bag I had seen at Samsonite in Paris... One of a previous collection that isn't sold at the regular stores anymore...
One they didn't sell at the Samsonite outlet store in Maasmechelen, where I went Saturday.
So, yesterday evening, AFTER posting all those pictures here, I got the idea to drive to Paris and back to get that laptop case.
And that is what I did today!
At 8.30, we (my mom accompanied me, she didn't want me to drive all those miles in one day all by myself) left home. ARound 12.15 we were at the outlet village. By 12.45, I had bought the laptop case. By 1 pm, we were on the parking lot of Hotel New York. We went into Disneyland Park to have lunch at Walt's, but there was a long wait, so we went to Planet Hollywood, and ate fajitas and the double chocolate brownie and came back home!
If that isn't decadent (driving all the way to Paris for a Samsonite laptop bag), I don't know what is
But, even with the péage, it was still cheaper to buy it there than buying the current version in the regular store over here!
So, I'm a happy person now.
However, I am also a tired person, and I declare all those that go to Disney for one day crazy. Well, those that come from Belgium btw. We left rather late, and arrived late at Disney. But if you have to get up early in order to arrive when it opens, drive all the way up there, spend all day at the park and then return... you will be dead-tired, and driving then is way too dangerous!
PS: to the person who wanted the photo album: I have been looking at them, but didn't know which one you wanted, I have that leather-look one at home, so I didn't buy you any.
