Day 4: Disneyland Paris

Yey!! It's Disneyland day!!!

The day we planned for Disneyland was such a beautiful day....the weather was very nice. It took half an hour from our rented mobile home in Varredes to Disneyland. We reached there at 10 am, the exact time of the opening. There were no hassle at all buying the entrance ticket (which I heard would be a long queue to get to the counter in summer). Entrance ticket for adult is 52 Euro and child is 44 Euro.

Entrance to parking zone

I decided to rent strollers for the twins to reduce level of crankiness due to exhaustion for that day. The rental rate was acceptable, 7.90 Euro for a stroller. It was a good decision.... the strollers were not only functioning as a child carrier but our bags carrier as well. We did not have to carry all our backpacks whenever we got on a ride, we just simply left it on the strollers. But of course we didn't leave anything valuable there. It seemed everybody also comfortably leaving their bags and strollers outside every ride and there were these Disneyland staffs who would go around helping to park the strollers in the right manner.

We had a chance to watch a live performance of Sleeping Beauty musical show. After the show, the parents fought the crowd to get their kids photographed with Sleeping Beauty character. We did too, we were so closed but then she walked to another side so we decided to give up. Nabihah was disappointed of course but we coaxed her into riding the carousel and several other rides.

And here some parts of the Sleeping Beauty show we managed to record:

The good thing about coming to Disneyland at this time (early spring), is the park was not so crowded. There were still many people around but yet you don't have to queue very long to get a ride. We even rode twice this one boat ride where I feel like being in a set of Charlie & The Chocolate Factory. I heard that starting April and the whole summer, Disneyland would be so packed that one has to queue such a long time for a ride.

I didn't check the price of food stuffs in Disneyland but I guess everything was pricey. We brought our own food for lunch and drink/snacks. However, we did buy Disneyland lollipops at price of 3.90 Euro for 3 sticks and some souvenirs, just Disney T-shirt for the twins and 1 fridge magnet for myself.

We decided to end our day in Disneyland at 5.30pm, right after the Disney Parade ended. Though the park is closed at 7pm, most rides end their operation at 6pm. And we too had solat time to catch. Even though we spent like the whole day in there, we actually only managed to cover 1/3 of the Disney Park. There were so much more rides to enjoy but we just didn't have the time!

Ok dah! Jom balik..

On the way back to our accommodation, we stopped at Carrefour and shopped some groceries. I was really impressed with the Carrefour as it has a halal section. Anyway, things were again very pricey. It's Paris ya!

That night, instead of canned food, we had a fresh prawn meal for the dinner and enjoying our last night in Paris.
