Paris: Day 2- Disneyland

Today I'm going to blog about my second day in Paris, we went to Disneyland! I'd never been to Euro-Disney before, only Florida and we had such an amazing day!

Getting tickets

About a month and a half before we went to Paris, my boyfriend and I had been looking at tickets online, so that we could try to get them cheaper than at the gate. Eventually my boyfriend found some tickets for £44 each, just after searching 'Disneyland Paris tickets 2 parks 1 day' a few times on Google.

 We decided that this was a great price for both parks and booked them. They arrived about a week later so that was fab.

Getting there

To get to Disneyland, we had to use the RER A train in the direction: Marne-la-Valée- Chessy.

There are several stations in Paris where you can get the RER A including: Charles de Gaulle Étoile, Chatelet-les Halles, Auber, Gare de Lyon and Nation. These are all accessible by metro.

Whatever you do, no matter how tired you are... ARRIVE EARLY!!!! 

We arrived at about 10:45 and then spent the next 45 minutes queuing to just get our bags checked before we went in, which was incredibly irritating because it was very hot, but this was all our fault for being lazy.

During the day

We knew from experience that food and drink would be very expensive inside Disneyland, so we made some sandwiches before we went and brought our own water. However, since it was a very hot day, we had to buy bottles of water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

I will post some photos but I don't want to go on and on because the day really was great...

Excuse how pale I am.. I chose to wear a vest (Dorothy Perkins) and some white trousers (Sainsburys TU) to keep cool, I also wore an over the shoulder bag (Dorothy Perkins) as I had heard (and kinda knew) that wearing a 'bumbag' literally screams 'TOURISTS' and this bag fit on all the rides anyway.

The Buzz Lightyear ride was so fun!! They have this in Florida too, you get a photo taken which is always hilarious.

The Best Rides*

Obviously this won't apply to everyone as my boyfriend and I like the big rides like rollercoasters and big thrills, but we also enjoyed the smaller rides too!

• Buzz Lightyear 
• Star Tours
• Pinocchio - we genuinely enjoyed this even though its really for little kids
• Aerosmith - my boyfriend said this was the best ride he's ever been on (This is also in Florida, but I found the one in Paris was much crazier)
• Armageddon
• Studio Backlot tour
• The Phantom Manor

*A lot of the rides had insanely long queues with it being a busy day but also because the 'Fast Pass' machines were off, so we couldn't go on everything that we wanted to.

So that was our day 2! We really did have a great day, despite the long queues and baking hot weather.

 As I said, if you ever go its important to get down early to avoid queuing and make the most of your day, but realistically it didn't spoil our time too much!

If anyone has any questions, do not hesitate to ask! I will post later about the evening of our day 2, where we ate and drank etc.

Thankyou for reading :)
