The wonderful world of Disneyland Paris.....

Sarah Todd on 16 June 2010
For a 'fun packed' short break with (or without) kids then this is the place to be....

We took the direct Eurostar for a 3 night trip from the beautiful St. Pancras station - this takes you straight to Disney and is the perfect way to travel ''stress free''!

Disney is not only for the little ones but there is also plenty to occupy the 'big kids' too. There are two parks (Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios), where you will find enough to entertain children (and adults) of all age groups. I would recommend a day in each park and be on the look out for the 'New Generation' characters...Nemo, Buzz, Woody, Sulley - they are all there waiting for a friendly hug!

In the evening there are a great choice of restaurants at Disney Village. If you havn't experienced it before then try the 'Rainforest Cafe' (my favourite restaurant), or go back to 50's America at 'Annettes Diner' where the waitresses serve you on roller skates!

If you still have enough energy then head on over to 'Billy Bobs' and try your hand at line dancing - it's free to join in and afterwards stick around for the live band.... yee hah!

For the less energetic then there are plenty of things to entertain you... for some retail therapy then head over to the nearby open-air shopping outlet at La Vallee Village or catch the latest movie at the onsite Imax movie theatre. If you just want to completely 'chillax' then treat yourself to a massage at the 'Celestia Spa' at the Disneyland Hotel.

There's ice-skating outside the New York Hotel if you fancy it, or for keen golfers then how about the 27-hole golf course at the nearby 'Golf Disneyland' (ask for my friend Colin)!

As you can see - there is something for everyone at Disneyland Paris so give it a go and I will guarantee that you come home with a smile on your face!
