haiderodes Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Nice photos! Its so picturesque in the snow. Goes to show you, that parks can still function well in the snow! What rides, if any, were closed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neovortex2k Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 It really is very pretty in the snow. The only thin closed was the Alice in Wonderland Labryinth as the bround was slippery but everything else was open even the river boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electerik Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 ^ I'm certainly not an expert on Disneyland Paris, but I'm pretty sure they don't have a Splash Mountain. Looks fun in the snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillerman1 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Amazing! Now if we can only get the other Disney parks to install snow making machines. Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woogle Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 It really looks totally different in the snow. I like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFreak Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Thanks for the TR! The park looks magnificent and it looks like a fun time was still had. Definitely on my list of things to do (Paris in Winter) before I die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtime&Gravity Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Great trip report, and some amazing photos that were able to capture the atmosphere. While hardly anything compared to Chicago snow wise, the snow seems to really change the park as some parts seem even more fantasy-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanlv Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Thanks for the amazing photos. Disneyland Paris is so beautiful and the snow just makes it even better. I agree with Hector that visiting Paris in the winter is definitely on my list of things to do. (At least I got the visiting Paris in summer thing checked off this year!) Thanks again!

thrillgeek Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Holy cow that looks amazing!! In my opinion it even looks better than when Robb and Elissa rode the coasters in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollercoaster5000 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 It's open in those conditions . Why is it that the UK parks are never open then. Must of been freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownStreak Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 With the submarine lagoon frozen, why are there people on the paddleboat? Why did that water not freeze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Holy cow that looks amazing!! In my opinion it even looks better than when Robb and Elissa rode the coasters in the snow. Oh, I didn't realize there was a competition for people who rode coasters in the snow. --Robb "Way to be insulting to the people who spend 24/7 bringing TPR to you!"

CorkscrewFoley Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Amazing photos, OMG. That must have been one hell of a day. Even as generic as it sounds, Paris in the winter is definitely a must... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filipv Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I also have some pics from dlp in the snow For those interested in my Disneyland Paris movies have a look http://www.dlrpfans.be/dlrpfanstv/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 That looks like a cold day! Thanks for the report, it looked really great in the snow. It's really cool that they stayed open, lots of parked wouldn't have. I think Robb wins the coaster in the snow non-existent competition. The wind chill with the coasters had to be much worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this rates a "boo" how, exactly? I love Indiana Jones! It's not up there like with Sheikra or anythin but i love the openess and vulnerability and I think you feel more of the raw speed than on like BTM. The themeing is brill aswell the way the have the loop cleverly disguised. Genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdane Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I want to see the Christmas Parade in the snow! Great pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chemical_echo Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Great pictures, but makes me a little sad that the reason Disney never built a park where Canada's Wonderland now stands was because the climate and short operating season.
