The Magic of EuroDisney with Derek & Pat - March 2011

Part of the adventure of a holiday is the travelling and we were lucky enough to cross the Channel in the new P&O ferry, “Spirit of Britain”. It was very nice indeed.
After a hearty breakfast of cereal, yogurt, fruit juice, egg, bacon, sausage and toast, all washed down with tea, we were off to the park.
Well, what a start.....immediately we were inside we managed to get a photograph with Mickey Mouse. That was great! It wasn’t long before we had another photo shoot with Cinderella and also got her autograph.
We ventured into Fantasyland where we flew on Dumbo the flying elephant, took a turn on the Mad Hatter’s Tea Cups, took a flight with Peter Pan, climbed onto Le Carrousel de Lancelot (Becky showed her horse riding skills), had a trip on Casey Jr. - le Petit Train, had a boat trip (Le Pays des Contes de Fees) and of course “it’s a small world”..........once sung, never forgotten!!
Then onto Discoveryland and having a blast with Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast and took in a show watching Captain EO.
Late in the day we watched the Disney parade, which was marvellous.
The next day we happily went off for another full and spectacular day in the Disney Studio Park. Again we managed an early photo shoot with Minnie and also got her autograph. We had a fantastic day going to CineMagique, Animagique, Playhouse Disney Live on Stage, seeing Stitch Live, taking the Studio Tram Tour and watching the incredible Moteurs...action! Stunt Show Spectacular. Wow....that is breath taking!
The Disney Stars “n” Cars parade was fabulous. Both Becky and Michelle managed to get loads of photographs and autographs of some of their favourite characters.
Becky and Derek took their lives in their own hands when they went on the Toy Soldiers Parachute Drop.....I think we both held our breath. How brave were we?
Michelle took Pat on the Flying Carpet Ride three times....yes, three times!! It was nearly too much for Pat, but she managed only because Michelle was there to hold her hand. Well done Michelle.
The next day we had a day out to the Medieval town of Provins. We saw some very interesting towers and old walls of the city. This is where Becky bought a piece of Brie (her little bit of France) which is a special cheese of the region.
