Review of Swing into Spring 2015 in Disneyland Paris
I’ve been off the Disneyland Paris radar for 6 weeks, so I didn’t know anything about the Swing into Spring celebrations in Disneyland Paris before writing this article, and searching for the associated videos for each part. So far removed from the Disneyland Paris community have I been, that I had to text Mark from our podcast and ask him what elements actually made up Swing into Spring this year. Then it was off to PixieDust.be who I can always rely on to have photos and videos up pretty quickly, and…

Review of Christmas 2014 in Disneyland Paris – Decorations, Dreams!, Wishes & Christmas Parade
Last week was my 7th visit during the Christmas season at Disneyland Paris, and my 4th year in a row of the festive celebrations. I’ve said on many occasions that weather aside, it’s certainly my favourite time of year to go, and I was expecting to come away thinking the same thing. I’m a huge Christmas fan anyway, and it’s a time of year that brings lots of fond memories and means a lot to me, unlike Halloween which I never celebrated growing up. I never even went trick or treating…

Following registration and picking up some cool Ratatouille credentials (including a…

Hipark Serris-Val d’Europe (Near Disneyland Paris) – Studio Review
Last November I visited Disneyland Paris for the launch of the 2013 Christmas Season, and on the Friday night I stayed for the first time in a studio at Hipark Serris-Val d’Europe. I had seen quite a few people speak favourably of these apartments so wanted to give it a go – plus at £52 it was only £2 more expensive than Séjours & Affaires. I got off the train at Disneyland Paris, and then got another train to Val d’Europe. The walk to Hipark was about 20-25 minutes, which was…

Review of Disney PhotoPass in Disneyland Paris
My trip to Disneyland Paris in the last week of May this year was the first since the new Disney PhotoPass system has been introduced. Before that time ride photos could be purchased after your ride from the counters of specific rides such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Space Mountain: Mission 2, and photos with characters could be purchased from your on site hotel shop or the photography centres such as Town Square Photography on Main Street, U.S.A. With those character photos you would be given a card for each…
