Disneyland Paris

Our trip was fabulous :-) Disney is my HAPPY PLACE :-) Little Prince was also super happy - that's him choo chooing down the tracks on Main Street, cunningly disguised as Winnie the Pooh :-) We rode the two new rides in the Studios - we loved Cars but hated Crush's Coaster!! But at least we can say we were brave enough to try it lol. We saw Mickey, Minnie and Goofy in their Christmas finery :-) And were lucky enough to also see the man himself - Father Christmas, we realise this is his busiest time of year so it was lovely that he took time out of his busy schedule to visit the grotto at Disneyland :-) We also pre-purchased vouchers for our evening meals, which gave all of us a starter, main course, dessert and soft drink for 15% less than we would have paid in cash!! Great for saving money - not so great for the losing weight lol. But who cares I was at Disney :-) I managed to buy Little Miss Sensible quite a few Christmas presents - and no I am not going to tell you what they are, as she will read this and find out!!!

Everything went fantastically well until the trip home!! At some point between boarding the Eurostar at Disney and getting off it again at Lille, then St Pancras I managed to lose our train tickets (London - home). I was so panicked about it, thinking that we'd never get on a train, that it would cost a fortune (rush hour Friday night!!!). But luckily we got on a earlier train than we would have travelled on, for a lot less money than I was thinking and we even got three seats together on an extremely crowded train!! Lucky or what?!?! Travelling on this earlier train also meant we were home in time to watch the final of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here :-) It was a great show only marred by the fact that Janice came second instead of J. Biggins was obviously the winner from the minute he arrived at camp - he was kind, compassionate and nice amongst a group of people who were becoming increasingly nasty and bitchy about each other. Long Live King (or should it be Queen lol) Biggins :-)
