Bonjour!
I spent a day at Disneyland on New Years day 2002. I didn't expect to really like is - basically because I can't stand Mickey Mouse and all his friends. Plus I never was a big rollercoaster fan as I am scared of heights! |
|  | It was an xmas present for my boyfriend because he loves rollercoasters and we were in Paris for New Years so I thought we could spend a day there.
I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was there. I loved the rollercoasters - especially space mountain. I didn't think about it and just went into it because it looked scary but not too high. I enjoyed it and screamed like a teenager ;-) |
I also loved the details that the park was filled with. Everywhere - even in the queuing areas there was something to look at like the original mining stuff in the Thunder Mountain. Everything was planned into the last detail - the haunted house, the restaurants, trees, fantasy worlds, landscape etc etc. It just felt a bit strange to hear Mickey Mouse speak French ;-) | | | My hero - Woody of the Toy Story! |

| Pros: | "Great atmosphere and rollercoasters, lovely details" | | Cons: | "This is not Paris, I repeat, this is NOT Paris ;-)" | | In A Nutshell: | "Great for a day but I wouldn't spend more time there!" |

You are right, Disneyland is not Paris. Spending more than two there is pure madness. Paris is the real thing with real people and believe it or not- cheaper! | linnyloo Tue Aug 19, 2003 15:50 UTC

Hi Sabsi...great tips. I have just returned from a weekend in Disney with my 5 year old daughter! It was magic. I, like you, was not interested in giong! Wish I read your tip about the Toy Story Pizza Place BEFORE we went (what was I thinking?) Kelly Anne | Cool-123 Fri May 9, 2003 09:21 UTC
