    Disneyland Paris Pins for December 2011 – More Star Wars Pins

    Unlike this month when the pins weren’t released until the 6th, the Disneyland Paris December 2011 pins have been announced already, and here they are: There aren’t many pins being released this month, just 4, and 3 of those are Star Wars pins that are out this Saturday, December 3rd. Few though they are in quantity, all of the Star Wars pins are great. I especially like Pete as Boba Fett, as we very rarely see Pete featured on a pin. Donald always looks great As Darth Maul and Goofy as…

    Remember When….Disneyland Paris Teamed Up With Disney DVD For A Huge Giveaway?

    Let me give you a tiny bit of back story here. My little boy has been watching some of the Disney Classic films recently and just yesterday he watched Robin Hood. Being a typical 3 year old, he left the case on the floor and when I went to pick it up I noticed there was a sticker on the cover. This was no ordinary sticker though, as this one mentioned Disneyland Paris. It featured the 15th Anniversary logo and talked about winning Disneyland Experiences, with Magic Tickets as the tag…

    Things you bring back from Disneyland Paris

    I’m not talking about merchandise here, though for the record I bought a Magical Moments Festival pin and a 2012 calendar on my visit last week, as well as gifts for my wife and son. No, I’m talking about those other things that you find in your wallet, suitcase, pockets and anywhere else that seems like an appropriate place for storing bits and bobs. You know what I’m talking about. No matter how many beautifully crafted pieces of merchandise they might sell in the many shops, it’s those odds and ends…

    If you’ve watched the TV in the rooms in any of the Disneyland Paris hotels then you’ve probably seen the Disneyland Paris channel and the great video called 10 Things To Know Before You Go. This is hosted by the very enthusiastic Sophie who I think is wonderful, but some others seem not to agree. Well, on looking thourgh the videos on my external hard drive I found one called 10 Things to know DLRP Oct 2008 – it’s the full 18 minute video showing Sophie going through all 10 of…

    Disneyland Paris Photo of the Day: 18th November 2011 – Space Castle

    Apart from liking the actual attraction, the other reason I miss La Cabane des Robinson being open is because it makes a great location to take photos from. Back in July 2005 I took this photo from atop the tree which makes Space Mountain 2 and the Castle look like they are near each other, in spite of them being in different lands and separated by quite a distance. Last week I wanted to take a similar photo and was recommended by Cast Member Thomas that the suspension bridge was a…

    Disneyland Paris Photo of the Day: 17th November 2011 – Christmas Tree

    When I walked into Disneyland Park a week ago, one of the first things that caught my eye was the amazing Christmas Tree in Town Square. It’s one of the most perfectly shaped Christmas Trees I have ever seen, and very nicely decorated too. If you look closely you can actually see the reflection of myself taking the photo in some of the baubles. I took quite a few photos of the tree but I like the perception of size that the steep angle this photo was taken at gives. Being…
