We've had this holiday booked since May, so I feel I've waited long enough to make my PTR! 
Whilst celebrating our third anniversary with a mini-break to Plymouth, my boyfriend and I decided that it was about time that we went on a proper holiday together. We tossed around a few ideas about Italy and Greece before he out-right said, "Unless of course you'd rather go to Disneyland Paris?" - It was like he'd read my mind!
Last December I celebrated my 18th birthday in DLP with my family, and after seeing the photos of all the decorations my boyfriend decided he wanted to go for Christmas. It all fell into place; we decided to go for the week over my 19th birthday, as means to celebrate that and to give ourselves something to look forward to through the first few months of university.
Me - 18 (turning 19 on the trip!), rediscovered my love of Disney after being 'too cool' for it in my mid-teens. Favourite rides are Rock'n'Rollercoaster, POTC and BTM. Takes far too many photos and gets far too sentimental!
Grant - 18, a wannabe cynic who secretly loves Disney. Loves all things Star Wars and Stitch. Can't wait to try Star Tours and POTC, and to eat at Blue Lagoon. A real sweetie who indulges my inner child!
(The creature on the left in the third photo is my sister (12) who loves Disney as much as I do and is very resentful of me going without her! She's already given me a list of photos and merchandise that she's after and is demanding we have a girly trip for my 20th - who am I to argue that?
)
We're going from the 12th to the 16th of December, travelling by Eurostar and staying at Hotel New York (a new one for me, in living memory I've only stayed at DLH!).
Our plan of action is to travel to London by train on the 11th and spend the night at my dad's flat, then on the way back we'll spend a weekend in London soaking up the Christmas atmosphere. On the 19th we're going back to my family home in Cornwall where we'll be spending our first Christmas day together!
We both love food, so meals have become a big part of our plans. We're hoping to eat at Annette's for a late lunch on our first day, then for our three whole days we're hoping to do Blue Lagoon (my favourite), Inventions and Walts. The last two I've never tried before, so I'm very excited!
I'm itching to go now and have started analysing my ticker as each day passes! I know it's going to be emotional sharing somewhere so special to me with Grant, and I can only hope that it will be the start of a long string of DLP memories together.

and we had a lovely time at all of them.

We'll do Fantasyland during EMH and cover all of the thrill rides. Might park hop in the afternoon, but I'm set on watching the parades/ceremonies again today before having a cocktail at Cafe Fantasia and dinner at Inventions.
