5 Things I Want To Experience At Disneyland Paris
Next weekend will mark my 7th trip to Disneyland
Paris, and this will be a trip for my birthday so I’m naturally even more
excited than usual. Obviously with having been numerous times; there’s been a
lot I’ve already experienced. However, as I’ve previously discussed, I always
do Disneyland Paris on a budget and there are quite a few things I’m yet to
experience so I thought I would take the opportunity to share them with you. I
wonder if anyone can guess what my number one will be?
5. Last One Out of
The Park
This is something that I’ve seen multiple people do and it’s
a renown thing to get a photo once the Park is empty at the end of the night.
For a number of reasons – ranging from being too tired or cold – I have yet to
make this happen but it is something I am determined to fulfil on my upcoming
birthday trip. The idea of being one of the last people to leave Disneyland
Paris and to be able to take a moment to sit down on Main Street and soak in
the magic of the park whilst its empty sounds perfect to me and is definitely
something that I am desperate to experience.
4. Be in DLP For
Special Anniversary Days.
On the 12th April 2017, Disneyland Paris
celebrated its 25th anniversary. Unfortunately, due to money
constraints, I was unable to attend. However, I spent the day immersed in the
photos and videos that graced the internet and its safe to say that I was blown
away by the spectacular celebrations that took place. The rare characters that
made an appearance to celebrate DLP’s 25th anniversary was
incredible. From the likes of Shang (From Mulan), Milo and Kida (From
Atlantis), Jim and B.E.N (From Treasure Planet), Berlioz and Toulouse (From The
Aristocats) and Kuzco (From The Emperor’s New Groove) – the list was endless
and it was amazing to see so many favourites out and about. Apart from this,
the day also included shows, cavalcades and even a Cast Member flash-mob down
Main Street. The entire day was packed with emotion and sheer delight and I
have made it my mission to be there for the 30th Anniversary
celebrations, which would be the next “big” day.
3. Inventions Sunday
Brunch
Despite being on the list of things I want to experience at
Disneyland Paris, I am pleased to say that this one will definitely be
happening when we visit DLP next month. Inventions Sunday Brunch has always
been something that’s intrigued me for numerous reasons. Firstly, the different
themes that are on offer every week are always exciting and I can’t wait to see
what the theme will be for us. Furthermore, the restaurant itself looks
beautiful and is in the magical Disneyland Hotel so this will be an incredible
experience. This will also be our first Character Dining experience and whilst
feeling slightly nervous for it, its also something that will be amazing to
try. I will also be doing a full write-up/review on this upon our return.
2. Disneyland Paris
at Christmas
Last year, we were going to visit Disney during the
Christmas season to get a first-hand experience of the festive celebrations.
However, we moved into our own flat in October and were therefore unable to
afford to go. Whilst I don’t regret the move into our beautiful home; I’m still
gutted that we weren’t able to attend the Christmas fun and it is definitely on
my agenda for this year. Seeing the pictures of the beautifully decorated Park
that were still in keeping with the 25th anniversary celebrations
gave me goosebumps and I wasn’t even there in person! All the celebrations and
seasonal character meets made the whole thing look so festive and enjoyable,
and reading Amy from Livvy Bird Adventures post about Christmas at Disneyland Paris, only made me want to experience it further. I already love the Magic of
Christmas time so I can only imagine that Disney has that extra dose of sparkle
to offer you during this time.
1. Stay at the
Disneyland Hotel
We’re finally onto my number one thing I want to experience
at Disneyland Paris and I’m sure many of you correctly guessed it: staying at
the enchanting Disneyland Hotel. When I used to dream of going to Disneyland
Paris, I would always fantasise about staying at this beautiful hotel. However,
as I grew older, I realised that, more realistically, there would be no way I
could afford to stay there just yet. My admiration and want to stay at the
Disneyland Hotel increased ten-fold when we visited the Park for the first time
and I got to see the hotel with my own eyes. It is, quite simply, exquisite and
although I can’t afford to stay there just yet – it is definitely something I
would save up for one day. At the moment, I could afford to stay there if I did
not do as many trips as I like to do in a year. However, let’s be realistic –
for now, I’m very happy staying in a budget hotel and doing as many trips as I
can throughout the year. The Disneyland Hotel is still a dream but it is
definitely not an impossible dream…it is Disney after all, and anything’s
possible if you just believe.
So, there are my five things that I want to experience at
Disneyland Paris. Some are more attainable in the near future than others. What
are some things you’d like to experience at DLP? Let me know below and also let
me know if you correctly guessed what my number one would be!
