Rain, Rain, go away…!

Our morning at Paris Disneyland started with a torrential downpour. The sort of heavy rain that forces you to run for canopy.

Happily, the massive rain drops didn’t final lengthy. Nevertheless, the chilly and damp climate did stick round for a number of hours.

We stayed at a Disney resort (extra on that under). Disney resort visitors have the chance to enter Disney parks one hour earlier than most people. I imagine they name it Additional Magic Time. It’s a pleasant perk that means that you can go to rides that usually has lengthy wait instances.

We didn’t make the most of this perk at Disney World in Orlando (examine that right here).

Sadly, due to the heavy rain that morning, our early entry benefit was mainly wiped away. We didn’t need to stand within the pouring rain, so we ended up taking shelter within the Disney shops as an alternative. 

We bought the 2-park cross with Disney Premier Entry.

Disney Premier Entry cross means that you can skip the road on most rides. As a result of we had Premier Entry, we didn’t really feel the necessity to rush to sure rides and sights. So, we weren’t too upset that the rain obtained in the way in which of our early entry.

We start our day at Walt Disney Studios Park

Nearly each Disney weblog publish will advise you to strategize your day. Have a plan. Don’t simply wing it. Have a look at the maps, determine what you need to do, then construct your plan of assault. 

We all know this. We’ve been to Disney parks earlier than.

However, did we take this recommendation and include a plan? Nope. 

Now, earlier than you shake your head in disbelief, now we have a proof for this lack of planning. As a result of now we have Disney Premier Entry, we are able to skip the road for many rides. Due to this fact, we didn’t really feel the necessity to rush from one experience to the following.

This cross means that you can waft, which is our desire. 

We began at Walt Disney Studios Park as a result of it’s the closest gate entrance to Disney Village. It was nonetheless raining, so this choice was primarily based purely on the place we may discover shelter.

The doorway to Walt Disney Studios is inside a big constructing with retailers and a restaurant; the right place to attend out the rain. After the rain subsided, we made our approach to Toy Story Playland.

Taking shelter inside Walt Disney Studios whereas we watch for the rain to cease.

Why did we begin at Toy Story Playland, you ask? 

Nicely, the brief reply is as a result of we made the error of considering that Slinky Canine Zigzag Spin is identical as Slinky Canine Sprint (curler coaster at Disney World Orlando).

We didn’t get to experience the Slinky Canine Coaster in Orlando as a result of the wait time was too lengthy throughout our go to. It was a disappointment for our boys. 

So, after we noticed “Slinky Dog” on the map, we raced to this experience considering it was a identical coaster as Orlando.

Spoiler – the Slinky Canine Spin at Paris Disneyland is most actually is NOT a coaster. It’s somewhat children experience that slowly goes round in circles. Whomp, whomp!

If you happen to’re questioning why a few these pictures at Toy Story Playland have blue skies and sunshine, it’s as a result of we got here again an hour later after the rain stopped. 

After spending about 45 minutes at Toy Story Playland, we made our approach to The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.

That is Nicole and Braydon’s favorite experience at Walt Disney Studios Park. 

We gained’t give away the magic of this experience. You must do it. It’s actually enjoyable.

Remy’s Ratatouille Journey

We made our approach to Remy’s Ratatouille Journey after Avengers Campus. Nevertheless, we discovered that the Ratatouille experience at Disneyland Paris is closed for renovations. 

This was a disappointment as a result of it’s one of many rides that feels most suited to Paris Disneyland.

The Ratatouille part has a row of distributors that serve quite a lot of meals and drinks.

Many of the gadgets are small handheld treats, together with candy and savory crepes, heat pretzels, fried potatoes, raclette on a bun, roasted chestnuts, and wine, in fact. 

The Ratatouille space has probably the most Parisian vibe inside the 2 Disney parks.  

I loved this ham and raclette cheese bun. The raclette cheese is heated below a lamp and the melted half is scraped off and placed on high of the ham. It’s a scrumptious snack. I imagine it was 6 Euros.

I additionally loved these tasty fried potatoes with bacon and cheese. The right snack between rides. 

Connor is pleased with a fluffy Belgian waffle. 

Entrance to Crush’s Coaster. This is likely one of the extra widespread rides at Walt Disney Studios Park. It usually has an extended wait time. We used the Premier Entry to skip the queue.

Staying at Disney’s Resort Santa Fe

We determined to remain at a Disney resort due to its shut proximity to the Disney Parks and Disney Village. With the ability to stroll from our resort to the park may be very handy.

We stayed at Disney’s Resort Santa Fe.

Marne-la-Vallee-Chessy prepare station is situated at Disney Village, so it’s a straightforward stroll from the prepare station to your Disney resort. We took the prepare from Good to Paris earlier that day. The prepare disembarks are Gare de Lyon in Paris. From there, you are taking the RER A prepare to Marne-la-Vallee-Chessy. It’s the prepare final station on this line. 

We selected Disney’s Resort Santa Fe for it’s worth level.

It’s a 2 star resort that’s situated furthest from the park entrance (it’s a couple of 15 minute stroll). It’s additionally the least expensive Disney resort inside strolling distance to Disney Village. 

Our plan was to spend 2 nights at this resort. This provides us one full day to spend at Disneyland Paris. 

The room is small however comfy. Realistically, we solely slept within the room. The remainder of our time was spent exploring Disneyland and Disney Village. 

A pleasant function at this resort is the free espresso merchandising machine. Moderately than espresso pots in your room, visitors can order espresso, cappuccino, latte, sizzling chocolate, and many others. from a merchandising machine. You faucet your room key and the machine processes your sizzling beverage at no cost.

I favor this technique versus the nasty espresso pots and rancid espresso packs in resort rooms. Why don’t extra inns do that? I might think about it’s less expensive.

Disney Resort Santa Fe is way larger than we anticipated.

It has a number of buildings with a number of flooring. The resort buildings are related with paths that are supposed to appear to be roads, to maintain with the Disney Vehicles film theme.

The resort has a buffet-style restaurant, La Cantina, and a bar, The Rio Grande. We didn’t dine at both restaurant. As a substitute, we visited the Starbucks on the resort and grabbed a number of gadgets to-go. 

The resort is somewhat dated, nevertheless it meets the expectation of a 2 star resort.

It didn’t examine to Coronado Springs Resort in Orlando or Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay at Tokyo Disneyland.

Nevertheless, in the event you’re travelling with younger children or you might have mobility points, the resort presents free shuttle service from the resort to the parks. 

As you’ll be able to see within the above photograph, it is a widespread possibility. The shuttles replenish rapidly, particularly within the morning, so be ready to attend. Or stroll the pathway, as an alternative.

There’s a quick prepare from Disneyland to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport.

Initially, we meant to take this high-speed prepare to the airport (Terminal 2). It solely takes 12 minutes from CDG Airport to Disneyland Paris, which is loopy quick and handy.

Nevertheless, we couldn’t get a straight reply in regards to the prepare schedule. Resort concierge mentioned it comes each hour, however couldn’t verify when.  

The value of the excessive velocity prepare from Disneyland Paris to Charles de Gaulle Airport in between 19 to 47 Euros per particular person.

If you happen to’re solely spending someday at one Disney Park, I might say Tokyo (however that was our first ever Disney park, in order that most likely influences my choice). 

Nevertheless, in the event you plan to spend a number of days visiting Disney parks, then Orlando is the higher possibility.

Associated – We made a number of Disney World errors. Right here’s what NOT to do.

Is Paris Disneyland definitely worth the cash?

Again to the unique query. Is the worth definitely worth the expertise?

I might say sure, primarily based on our expertise.

Visiting Disneyland Paris is dear. It’s not an affordable household trip. I needed to take a deep breathe after I checked out bank card bills associated to this Paris Disneyland journey.

Nevertheless, we really feel prefer it was value it. We loved our go to and have enjoyable reminiscences that can final ceaselessly (hopefully!). And, keep in mind, we’re not huge Disney followers. 

It is a once-in-a-lifetime expertise. Our boys will solely be this age as soon as. We’re glad we made this journey occur as a result of it’s unlikely we are going to return to Disneyland Paris. By no means say by no means, nevertheless it’s unlikely.
