It’s just like we dreamed it!

Boo. It’s been raining so much in Vienna lately it kinda sucks. Was planning to have a lunch picnic near the Danube River today but the weather doesn’t seem permitting :(

By the way, was out grocery shopping with Connie yesterday when the funniest thing happened:

Me (browsing the shelves for shampoo): Hey, do you know what “Jedes Haar” means?

Connie: Um, “Jedes Haar” ah… Um, you see, I’m an expert in German and this means… um… 

Me (given up): Oh never mind.

A stranger who’d been next to us all that while: Do you need help with any translation?

Connie & me: Wahahaha… yes, please… *giggled uncontrollably*

The stranger: *gave us a knowing look*

Hurhur. Turned out that “Jedes Haar” means “all types of hair”. Austrians could be quite helpful, indeed :)

Anyways, here’s a deluge of photos taken in Paris Disneyland, on probably the best day of my Easter Trip:

Min Dan and I were going in!

Disneyland Railroad! All aboard!

With Pooh!

It’s a small world!

Flying off to Neverland in Peter Pan’s Flight! We had the Fastpass thing so we managed to avoid a long queue to get on the ride :)

Min Dan spinning, whirling, twirling and twisting in her giant Mad Hatter’s Tea Cup 

With Minnie balloons!

Meet Minnie! :)

Sleeping Beauty Castle!

While I’m not exactly Disney’s biggest fan, Aurora is my favourite Disney character :)

Disneyland Paris is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year!

We were really fortunate to be visiting the park this year, for there was a number of parades going on when we were there, which were quite a sight! 

Pluto getting overwhelmed at the Meet ‘n Greet

Pinocchio and Geppetto!

My favourite ride of the day: Pirates of the Caribbean woohoo!

The queue for the ride was incredibly long but it moved amazingly fast. I’m impressed by the management of the park!

And as we queue, we were entertained by sights around us, such as what you see above, so we didn’t feel like we were waiting at all.

Captain Barbossa in his skeletal form and the Aztec treasure!

I’m a pirate, hear me roar! =D

A quote by Jules Verne found in the park - Everything that is within the limit of possibility has to be and would be achieved.

With Mickey balloons!

With the beanstalk from Jack & The Beanstalk!

Autopia! Min Dan let me take the wheel :)

My yellow 1950s car!

Acting lame with our 3D glasses while waiting for the Honey, I Shrunk the Audience show :p

More Disney parade!

Snow White and Prince Charming!

Ariel The Little Mermaid and Prince Eric!

Belle!

The sheer amount of crowd who watched the parade.

I also have a couple of shots of Cinderella and Princess Jasmine from the parade, but they’re not exactly very clear, so just go to my Disneyland Paris photo album if you’re interested, yea?

Looping the loop at Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril! Considering the fact that I’m pretty much a faint-hearted person, very reluctant to ride roller coasters and stuff, taking this ride and another roller coaster ride called Big Thunder Mountain was a big achievement for me! Noticed my rather pale face? Hurhur.

Strolling through Le Passage Enchanté d’Aladdin!

Genie!

Aladdin and Abu!

Et mais oui, The Enchanted Lamp!

Ready to ride through the dark and mysterious forest of Snow White! 

Avec la Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains!

Dopey, Happy, Sneezy and Sleepy!

A real scary Queen/Witch!

Taking a bite off the Poisoned Apple!

Next stop: Les Voyages de Pinocchio!

Last stop: Alice’s Curious Labyrinth!

We decided to stay on till the park closed to watch the peak of its 15 Magical Years Celebration and it was wonderful!

The Sleeping Beauty Castle was all lit up!

Mickey making his grand entrance!

Donald!

Tinker Bell (?) even spread some love through her sprinkles!

A mesmerizing onstage performance

Goofy and Daisy!

And so, much to our dismay, that’s the end of a great day in Disneyland Paris. View my complete collection of Disneyland photos here and the parade videos here, or simply click on my Vodpod sidebar. That said, the visit was simply a magical experience that words and even pictures don’t do justice in describing it. You just gotta be there to believe it!

Disneyland, where dreams become reality. Indeed.
