Disneyland Paris – Best Vintage Mickey Review
Which Disney Resort is every Child's favorite holiday resort destination}.
At a guess that it would be Epcot for a reallyExciting time. Disneyland is most kids favourite with a chance of really meeting Mickey Mouse or Minnie Mouse . There are always lots of great fun things to do like Character Breakfasts and then there are Adventure trails and a heap of other activities to keep them entranced all day long.
Disneyland Paris best Vintage Mickey Review
I visited Disneyland Paris last Week and was delighted to see all the kids who had dressed up for the day !
Most small girls had dressed as either a Princess or as Alice and fairy wands were waved at just about everyone.
Boys mainly had Mickey Sorcerer Hats (and that included many boys of around 18 to 59 by the way !) or as Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean.- I did not know there were that many pirates around nowadays...
The Pirates of the Caribbean is a great attraction – unmissable in my opinion.
Lots of the girls waited in line to meet their favourite Princess (with Cinderella and Prince Charming being the hot favourites)
Almost all were themselves in costume and there was great competition to get a full Princess makeover including dress, shoes and wigs.
It certainly made those girls have a very special day indeed.
They have seriously extended Disneyland Paris since I last visited and I was pleased to see that (when it started it was looking a little on the Spartan side)
The Pirate area is much bigger and Captain Jack was signing signatures (but he did seem to have a problem deciding which was the working end of a ball point pen !)
There are now lots of restaurants and a huge cowboy BBQ which was one of the most popular eating places.There is even an evening dinner show at Buffalo Bills WIld West show - 6.30 pm and 9.30pm
The most popular attractions were Sleeping Beautys Castle with a GREAT dragon in the dungeon..Followed swiftly by The Haunted Manor (the haunted House ride) ,Idiana Jones and the Temple of Peril (A great action rollercoaster-style ride)
All of the oher popular rides were there plus the upgraded Space Mountain where get get Fired from a gun (Jules Verne Style –well it IS in France !) on a dark rollercoaster ride.
The only thing I did not like was the entrance with dozens of ticket booths with only a few manned – and the fact that only a dual park ticket was shown on the entrance fee boards whereas you can actually buy a ticket for one park alone (although I did get the 2 park ticket I thought this was a bit misleading by Disney and should be changed)
The Fastpass ticket system is in operation so please take advantage of that.
Although there were 15 or so characters roaming around the park to give authographs and happy to be photographed,I found that the main characters are only to be seen at the Disney characters Eat n Greet restaurants
You really do need a two day visit with an overnight stay at Disneyland Paris as there is now SO MUCH to see and do – especially with the Walt Disney Studios Park as well – that is where the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attractions is sited. .
There is lots of evening entertainment to see as well. I wished I had stayed for the two days.
Instead I stayed in Paris and visited Disney on the RER railway (well signposted and only about 17 Euro return fare).It drops you right at the entrance gates of Disneyland Paris and you do not have an extra journey to the park like in the Parks in America – you just walk right in.
How did I rate Disneyland Paris - 5*****
The problem over buying tckets was soon solved but they DO need more tcket booths to be open.
Did I have a good time in Disneyland Paris – you bet !
Mickey and the lovely Minnie Mouse starred {first | early on |in their first film in the cartoon Plane Crazy, first released on May 15, 1928. The cartoon was co-directed by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. Iwerks was also theprimary animator for this short, and reportedly spent six weeks working on it. The Rumour was , Iwerks was the top Artist for all Disney short released in 1928 and 1929. Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising also helped Walt Disney in the early years. They had already signed their contracts with Charles Mintz, but he was still in the process of forming his new studio and so for the time being they were still working for and employed by walt. This cartoon would be the last cartoon they animated under this somewhat awkward situation.
