The Dedicated to DLP 2013 Wish List for Disneyland Paris
2012 was a landmark year for Disneyland Paris, as I wrote about in this article and talked about on episode 6 of the podcast, as we enter 2013; what can we expect and what do we want to see?

It being Christmas Eve today I thought I would post some photos from Christmas Eve in 2005, when I was lucky enough to actually be in Disneyland Paris.I remember it being quite cold and foggy, which combined with my low spec digital camera meant the photos aren’t as good as they would be today, but they are good enough to portray the festive atmosphere. Catch up on the latest podcast which has the year in review and an interview with Disneyland Paris Show Director Christophe Leclercq here.
