Disneyland Paris Restaurant Review: Colonel Hathi’s Pizza Outpost
Colonel Hathi’s Pizza Outpost over in Adventureland is one of the few restaurants that I’ve never actually been to in Disneyland Paris. Partly because it’s kind of out of the way of the route I usually take, and also because it always used to be closed whenever I’d check.

Colonel Hathi is an elephant from The Jungle Book, which I…

From Fear to Obsession – How Big Thunder Mountain in Disneyland Paris Changed Me
Back in November 2012 I wrote an article titled I Finally Rode Big Thunder Mountain in Disneyland Paris, in which I described the first time and only time I’d been on Big Thunder Mountain before our trip last week.

It was just 6 days ago that I…

It’s fair to say that Disneyland Paris never gets much of a look in, due to there not being big things to talk about every year and the relative apathy of the crowds in attednace to Disneyland Paris itself.

Disneyland Paris Adding Surprise Rare Characters…Every Tuesday!
There were some murmurings yesterday that something character related was happening today, and before I get in to what happened, I’d just like to once again express my desire for Disneyland Paris themselves to break any and all news, and it not come by the way of Chinese whispers between Cast Members and friends. And after I wrote that previous statement, an email plopped into my inbox from Disneyland Paris. Still, would rather we got an announcement before, not after the event. Here’s the official line: Today, you might have noticed…
