    Disneyland Paris Review: Swing into Spring 2016

    After hearing about how good it was in the past few years, I finally made my first proper Swing into Spring visit to Disneyland Paris. I say proper, because last year I was there for the very last day of the season, but saw one Goofy’s Garden Party show and that was it! This year I was there for 3 days, and saw everything, I think.

    Disneyland Paris Restaurant Review: The Lucky Nugget Saloon

    You may remember from my previous post about The Lucky Nugget Saloon that I’ve never even entered this building, let alone eaten there, so this was an absolute first for me…as opposed to a partial one?! Inside it’s absolutely gorgeous, and nicer than any saloon I’ve ever seen in films, which is my only reference for saloons other than the Red Garter Saloon over at Hotel Cheyenne. On the wall behind the stage is the most incredible mural of Thunder Mesa depicting a thriving community, pre-earthquake. There is a gorgeous display…

    This latest tidbit has been broken by the folks at ED92 who today revealed plans for a new hotel, which is supposedly planned to be located opposite Hotel Santa Fe, the Cars themed hotel. The plans that are now public can be seen below: Whether it will happen and when it will happen we will just have to wait and see, but my interest lies in what theme it will have. The project is nicknamed New Wave, which makes me think of A-Ha, Simple Minds, Blondie and many other music acts…

    Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: Newly refurbished it’s a small world

    Just a few short months ago it’s a small world opened it’s doors again in Disneyland Paris after a period of refurbishment. We thought there they may have added some Disney characters to the attraction as has been done in America, but this was not to be. Instead we got an internal and external paint job and tidy up, which has it’s a small world looking fantastic, inside and out. The colours are now so vibrant that it feels like riding it on opening day. Maybe the characters will come, but…
