This was my first time to Disneyland Paris and I had a blast!

 

Staying on site at the Santa Fa Hotel for 3 nights worked perfect allowing me to use my pass for Magic Hours each morning, getting a few quick rides in before the crowds came. Amazingly for the 2 hour early start in the Studios, I could only manage 2 rides on Crush's Coaster due to the huge popularity of the ride. During the day Crush's line would blow out to two hours and it was a very slow moving line.

 

Disneyland made me feel like a kid again and I have to say it really is the happiest place on earth.

 

Enjoy some pictures from both parks over my stay there.

There was a few breakdowns as people were driving around, but the ride ops were quick on the case to get them going again

Disney's Stars 'n' cars parade was a bit rushed and can't match the brilliance of the two Disneyland parades

I was always up for a character photo, especially Sully

So is this bad tower, or good tower? Well I had a great time on it anyway

But Fast pass definitely helped beating the queues

I didn't know what to expect on the Tram Tour and was definitely surprised when the live set got out of control

Three days was the perfect time to spend at Disneyland Paris. I was able to ride everything I wanted and got plenty of re-rides as well.

Great TR! DLP is a resort I would love to visit. It's got such a similar story to the original Disneyland, rough start but grew into a great place. I also love their castle. Glad you missed that snow storm that just shut them down!

 

P.S. Is it just me or is it really weird to see the exact same Tower of Terror as DCA sitting their with different surroundings? Other Disney clones tend to have variations that make them unique but this one is dead on.
