A Full Disney Day

- May 19, 2020

Samantha and I began our second day at Disneyland Paris quite early.

We hit up our Disney resort's cafe just before 7am.

At the rustic Chuck Wagon Cafe you're seated, then you're able to select which food you'd like from the buffet.

Remember when we thought all the Christmas decorations would disappear? Well, they were disappearing, but it was a gradual process.

As resort guests, Samantha and I were able to take advantage of the Extra Magic Hours in the morning. Our first stop was Walt Disney Studios Park, one of Disneyland Paris' two parks.

Once inside we took a spin on Crush's Coaster.

Then we caught up with Mickey, who was impressed with Samantha's outfit.

We'd all received the red and black memo for the day.

When I first met up with Samantha in Paris a few days earlier she'd bought me this awesome Pizza Planet jumper.

I've kind of loved Toy Story ever since I worked at Pizza Planet in Disney World.

Samantha also bought me this adorable wallet.

We went on some of Toy Story Playland's rides, including the Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin.

Rex was only too happy to keep posing for photos for the blog.

Then it was time to farewell the toys.

Passing through an empty monkey barrel we found the Ratatouille ride, where we used the single rider line.

Disneyland Paris has festive food stalls during the Christmas season.

Samantha and I spent about forty-five minutes waiting in line for Frozen: A Musical Invitation.

We stood in the first room where we were greeted by Kristoff and Sven.

Anna wasn't too happy to see the pair asleep.

We all walked through to the next room where we were joined by Olaf and Elsa.

The characters communicated in a mix of English, French and reindeer.

The show included singing, and a few basic dance moves that the audience was encouraged to copy.

After the show we participated in a drawing class.

The character we drew was Daisy Duck.

Aladdin and Jasmine were excited to see us, and were very interested in my new, gold, glittery ears.

Aladdin asked if I got them from the Cave of Wonders.

The park pays tribute to the founder of the Disney franchise, Walt Disney.

We left Walt Disney Studios,

and made our way to Disneyland Park.

We were due to have lunch, but the Lineberty app indicated we were also due to meet Mickey in his Phantom outfit at the same time. Using the app is the only way to meet some of the characters at Disneyland Paris. With our time turners nowhere to be found, we informed the staff at Cowboy Cookout we'd be a little late.

Mickey's afternoon attire was a totally different vibe to his morning outfit.
