    We’re almost one month into 2014 so I thought it was about time we looked at what is coming up for the rest of the year – what we know, what we have heard on the grapevine and finishing off with what I want – my wishlist. Disneyland Paris in 2014: The Facts Ratatouille: L’Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy I created this website in September 2010, and the new Ratatouille attraction, restaurant, shop and themed area is by far the biggest thing to happen in Disneyland Paris in that time.

    Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: On Cloud Nine

    There is little better than a gorgeous blue sky when you visit Disneyland Paris, but sometimes the sky can look pretty amazing when it’s full of clouds. In fact clouds can add another level to the atmosphere that you don’t get on a clear day. These are just a few photos I’ve taken over the past year or two with some great looking skies. See you for the next Disneyland Paris Photo Friday.

    Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: Black & White with a Splash of Colour

    I decided to have a bit of fun with this week’s Disneyland Paris Photo Friday, so I chose a few of my photos and turned them into black and white images, but leaving one colour set in. It takes the attention away from the obvious and has you looking at parts of the photo that you probably wouldn’t normally focus on.

Anyway, 2 weeks ago I was contacted by someone who said they had some exclusive news about the Ratatouille: L’Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy restaurant and shop. I published that in this article on December 16th.

So here it is… The world of Ratatouille…

    The True Spirit of Being a Great Disneyland Paris Cast Member

    When I was in Disneyland Paris back in November, standing at the side of Main Street, U.S.A. waiting for the Christmas Cavalcade to start, a Cast Member caught my eye. Now bear in mind that it was getting cold and it was the first official public day of Disney’s Enchanted Christmas in Disneyland Paris. This particular Cast Member was walking down Main Street, U.S.A. in front of the Christmas Cavalcade, dancing, singing, interacting with the waiting crowds and making sure everyone was entertained. It wasn’t just a quick one-off, he did…
