Hello everyone!
I've been lurking around, getting in the mood for my trip to Disneyland Paris at the end of May. I've been to WDW many times before, on the Cruise Line twice, and to Paris twice as well - though Paris is a long time ago, when I was still young.
The last weekend of May, I'm taking my third trip to DLRP, but this time is extra-special because I'm going with my girlfriend.
It won't be her first time at DLRP, but it will be her first time a) on vacation with me, and b) at DLRP for more than a day-trip.
We'll be staying at Hotel Cheyenne, along the Rio Grande, from Friday (our arrival day, in the afternoon) to Monday (the train leaves at the end of the afternoon).
We've got our eye on a few restaurants that we'd like to eat at (we have the Half-Board Plus vouchers), namely Blue Lagoon, Walt's, and Auberge du Cendrillion (yes, it will cost extra, but it should be worth it).
I think I'll be running the trip-report within this thread, but I figured I should get a head start while I'm still thinking clearly!
So, without further ado:
The Cast:
Ron (me): I'm a Disney fan, for sure. I grew up with the Classics (Dumbo was one of the first movies I ever watched, closely followed by Snow White), and am thankful to this day that we went to WDW when I was a kid... It let me dream a little, and was a great source of vacation-inspiration... Which is to say that my older sister and I (and later our little sister) would frequently suggest it as our destination! As you may have guessed, that worked out very well. Now, I'm spreading the love to my love.
Sarah (the girlfriend): Enjoys Disney, enjoys theme-parks, but is not quite the level of fan that I am... Maybe this vacation will change that? Haha!
So, thank you all for the welcome, your patience and useful advice, and stay tuned for the eventual trip report! (And in the meanwhile, my likely ramblings about how excited we are to be going!)
