DISNEY PARIS!

9.13.12

It's getting harder and harder to remember dates and days haha.

Anyway, I spent the last two days in Paris, but it definitely needs to be broken up into two different blog posts because of everything we did!

Well we made it to Disney Paris, with a few minor setbacks. (We had to buy train tickets [we bought the wrong ones] and Danielle, Colleen, and Amy had to buy Disney Tickets, while I had accidentally forgotten mine on my bed on the ship..)

But, it was definitely worth it! It was raining a little bit, but honestly, we didn't mind because it was on and off, but only terrible downpour once! (We just went into a store for 10 minutes and it stopped!) The only downside to the rain was that we only found one character outside! The lines were literally less than 20 minutes each, so we had plenty of time to do everything we wanted! The Rockin' Roller Coaster wait line was only 10 minutes, while the Space Mountain ride was only 5 minutes!!! (I have video to prove this!)

We also went to Toy Story Land while there and we rode the Green Army Men Parachute Drop, as well as the RC Racer ride! Everything made us feel so small because the toys were huge!

I broke down and bought a Little Green Alien stuffed animal, and I'm glad we went because it's the 20th Anniversary year! They had this awesome show right as the park was closing! (It wasn't just fireworks, there were several characters talking and you could see them on Sleeping Beauty's Castle).

One ride that I really enjoyed was the "It's a Small World" Ride! It was fun to go through and see all the different countries, and we loved saying "Oh! We've been there!" or that we're going there!

Whoever said this, clearly hadn't discovered SAS yet... :)

The parks were also much closer together, so we could dart really quickly from ride to ride. I'm not quite sure how to relate this one back to my Vicarious Voyagers class, but I hope they like the pictures! :)
