    Kyriad no more, we changed our booking to Hotel Santa Fe

    So on Friday you’ll have read that I booked a trip to go back home, to Disneyland Paris, in May. I initially booked the Kryiad Hotel because it was cheaper than any of the on site hotels and was still only a 5 minute ride away on one of the free Disney buses.

One of the big factors is that my son is an absolutely massive Cars…

    Disneyland Paris Pins for January 2012 – Just One New Pin

    It’s taken me ages to find out what the new pin releases are in Disneyland Paris for January 2012 as the pin trading page on the official website still has the December 2011 pins displayed.

    We are going back to the magic of Disneyland Paris!

    While we always had an idea that we would go back to Disneyland Paris next year, we’d never actually got to the point of making it a definite plan. Now we have got to that point and at the moment June 2012 is when we are thinking of going for our 11th visit to Disneyland Paris. Last time we went in September and loved that time of year due to the nice weather and low crowds, but my son starts school next year so September is out of the question. We’d…
