    New Food in Disneyland Paris: Super Seeds, Brain Food, Peanut Butter Bar and Pineapple Whip

    Unless you’ve been living under a rock in the last few months you’ll know all about the rumours of Dole Whip coming to Disneyland Paris, which in fact turned out not to be Dole Whip but a snack known as Pineapple Whip. This is slightly different to Dole Whip, in that it evidently isn’t made by Dole and the soft scoop part is not non dairy ice cream like its American Dole counterpart.

    6 Things For 2016 I’ve Never Done in Disneyland Paris, But Will

    Back in 2011 I wrote an article called 10 Things I’ve Never Done in Disneyland Paris. Now some of those I will never be able to do, like visit a one park resort, or use Francs, unless something drastic happens to the French economy.

This…

    The Forest of Enchantment – A Disneyland Paris Success Story

    Today is the 10th May, which means it was just 2 days ago that The Forest of Enchantment had its last showing at The Chaparral Theater in Disneyland Paris. This is a show that we first got wind of back in August last year, and with very little information I speculated that maybe it would be an updated Frozen show, but that was debunked a month later when we found out they were auditioning for the parts of Pocahontas, Rapunzel, Flynn Rider with Merida and Tarzan being mentioned 2 weeks later.…

    From Harry Potter to Disneyland Paris in under 3 hours

    Some articles take weeks of research and have word counts into the thousands, at the other end of the spectrum there are those that are merely elongated thoughts that have popped into my head and I feel the need to share with the world. At London King’s Cross Station you have for a few years been able to visit Platform 9 3/4, the mythical platform that allows wannabe wizards and witches to board the Hogwarts Express to, well I’m sure you can work out the destination from the name of the…
