We actually enjoyed Disneyland Paris

DISNEYLAND PARIS

Disneyland Paris was Zoe-Pascale highlight and to our surprise we enjoyed it more than we expected even in the morning rain. We took a morning train directly to the park and found the crowds manageable and the lines moving fast for each ride. Having grown up in Los Angeles I have probably been to Disneyland at least 40 times in my life and wasn't sure what to expect with the newer version I grew up with. Overall I applaud Disney for keeping the essence of Disneyland alive in Paris while making it even easier to access and enjoy. The design of the park was laid out exactly the same but with a larger Fantasyland for the many families with small children and extra attractions added while you waited in line. For example in, It's a Small World (our favorite) after the ride and listening to the song It's a small world at least 100 times, you visited a Lilliputian like city where the kids ran from house to house peeking in the windows of all the different countries they had just visited in the ride. We felt like we won the lottery as the experience continued when we least expected.Now that Zoe was older we were also able to spend more time in Adventureland and Tomorrowland which seemed less crowded. Overall it was Zoe's favorite and we were pleasantly surprised with the great day we all had together.
