Weekend at Disney Paris

Predicting that Easter weekend would be slow around Paris, we decided to ditch the city and head to Disney Paris for one night. It was the right decision. Disney Paris has two parks, a Disney Village and a three (maybe four) on-site Disney hotels. And that's pretty much all that's around there. We saw everything and had a great time. The experience is very similar to being in Florida -- except, it was FREEZING. It was strange to see Disney with visitors dressed in coats, scarves and hats. It's also much smaller. Disney Studios took us less than a day to see.  We decided that it was a great way to spend a weekend, but not a destination we'd fly to Europe to see. If you're here, than, sure. Come for a little quality Disney time. But, if you're in the US, Florida is just way better.  Minnie Ears and a Happy Girl Daughter and Father Smiles Sleeping Beauty's Castle Before the Light Show This Girl and Her Ice Cream.

Disney Funtastic Weekend!

We had an amazing weekend at Disney World in Orlando. The girls are just at the PERFECT age to really enjoy the parks ... and the princess! They were in total awe meeting Cinderella and Rapunzel -- totally adorable. We loved the roller coasters, the Mickey ice cream pops, the parades, fireworks, the hotel pool, shopping (obvi) and meeting the characters -- we filled autograph books and they're our favorite souvenirs.   Here are a few favorite pics I took with my phone. Dave brought the big camera, too, so a photo book is in the making.  Taking on the Magic Kingdom! We Just Loved That Castle! Mickey Pops -- A Favorite Treat to Keep Cool

Disney Deep Thoughts

Disney -- the only place where you can love your kids so deeply, then want to throw them in Cinderella's moat in the span of 11 minutes. Meeting Jesse! She Was Fantastic And I can't quiet understand adults who wait in line to meet the characters. Really? Does that seem weird to anyone else? Lastly, I give it up to the parents who have two or three kids under 4-years-old and choose to come to Disney. Their huge strollers and multiple meltdowns. Whoa! And to the reeeally pregnant women walking around in the heat with small kids ... medals of honor should be given. Every time I wanted to complain, I would look around at these crazy mothers and think I have it EASY in comparison. Related posts: All the Traveling With Kids stories
