Paris Revisited Day 2 - Part 2 Disneyland,Paris

I am sure most people knows that most things in movie are fake or rather fake-ish. Like the remote control life size car or the amazing car race that makes you go "ahh, wahh....". Watching a stunt show in Disneyland revealed their secret even further. Here's some still pictures & a short video segment of the stunt show. *again, pardon the shaking hands, you try filming video with your hand up in the sky in the cold*





I like how the cars "dance" around & you see the red car driving around reversing? Its actually a car built the other way round - when the car is going forward, it looks like a car going backwards & vice versa. I am no petrol head but I am enjoying the show. 

Then I spotted something interesting.


Now so in. Even pacifier has an accessories that does nothing but look pretty. I was so tempted to borrow from the kid to take pictures but he was giving me the suspicious eyes. Speaking of kids, I am sure most of you know I am no fan of them but I was surrounded by all these cute kids, they are either wearing princess dress or racing car suit & even leather jacket. So cute, ok, next time if I have a son, I will dress him in leather jacket sans pacifier with accessories. I guess I have to admit, their kids are cuter than our kids. Hahahaha.


I used to love snow globes when I was young, the sole reason is because Malaysia doesn't snow & it is fun to watch the pretty snow in them "snow". Now they replace the "snow" with sprinkles & I actually experienced real snow, I still think they are pretty but no longer like them as much but look at this. Shame its heavy to lug around, if not, I will sure get it.




Disneyland across the world, I ticked 2 in Disneyland checklist. How about you?





Then it is souvenir time....Hehehe, who doesn't love souvenir?


We chose King Ludwig's for dinner




Nice choice ordering french onion soup in France....lol


My Pretzel Burger.


Stroganoff rice


Then I took a stroll around my Hotel.


Just think this looks artistic but in reality its a lost focus shot. hahahaha




Ghostly cowboy town that was abandoned, which is also my Hotel.








Signing off with a beautiful picture of the castle.
Hope you have a Happy New Year!

Paris Revisited Day 2 - Part 1 Disneyland,Paris

*Thank you so much for the support, reading my rambling & sharing my experience, if you like what you are reading, please click on the advertisement on the right of the post as well as the bottom of each post (either one will do). Thank you very much, I will try to post something new everyday for as long as I can.*

Day 2 of Disneyland, we woke up at 6 am to catch the 7 am breakfast for the 8 am early admission of hotel guests, that is 2 hours before everyone else. We arrived at Disney Park at 8:10am & guess what? It was so empty!!! We basically had the whole place to ourselves & managed to take lots of pictures & Disney looks like a deserted town.

Firstly, breakfast. Look at the amount of croissant & baguette....I always love croissant but because its oily & fatty, I try to minimize eating it. But since I am on holiday & I would had burn it away in the cold & all the walking, I help myself to quite a lot of them.







Look at those croissant & pain au chocolat....Yummmm...

After a healthy serving of continental breakfast, we set out for Disneyland. The sky isn't even bright yet.







I love how empty the place is, its like I get the whole Disneyland to myself. Hehehehe. Without the crowd, we managed to get on 4/5 rides in an hour, including Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear (where you shoot villians & save the 3 eyed monsters), Pinocchio, Peter Pan, Teacup. How fast was that?


 Basically saving them.


from him






Then we went for Peter Pan ride, basically all kiddy rides & brings you around to show you the storyline.







Look how colourful is the teacups & lanterns...







Its a small small world ride. I didn't go in because the kids in there freaks me out. I had a plan to tell my kid(s) next time that if they misbehave, Disney is gonna come get them & make them work as the kids in small small world, singing "its a small small world..." for eternity. I am evil, yes!






Welcome to my humble abode.


This is me & my smartly-dressed butler.


Let me show you the inside of my house but before that...


never too sick of taking pictures of the castle.


& my tiara collection


He is a family friend, he always visits & scare little kids on the way....hehehe, thats why he is my favourite guest.





Elevator to the inside of my house, it was too dark, you have to come see for yourself........*muahahahaha* *evil laugh*


Then we bumped into another parade, this time it is about Christmas.










Then we bumped into Duffy....oh, how cute & cuddly is he.


He decided to play with my cousin.





Then it was my turn, I rushed to hug him, I mean look how cute he is & I think he was abit unprepared.



Then it was his turn to hug me & I was unprepared.


Then we ventured into Disney Studio & bumped into a grown man wearing Minnie Ears....Disneyland sure is magical.











I will leave you with all the pictures & come back with a short (not so well recorded) clip of Disney stunt show & Part 2 of Disneyland Day 2. Signing off with me & Duffy Butterscotch.
