Day 9 - DISNEYLAND



Huge good morning from Mickey Mouse himself, today is the day that we head to magical Disneyland. The weeks upon weeks of waiting, our dreams finally came true. Making sure we all had our amazing european tour shirts, we were ready to leave after a typical french breakfast. Leaving at 9 in the morning we made our way to Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney studios. 
Full of excitement and high off the anticipation, we slowly made our way there. As we entered the gates and had our first glance at the castle we all screamed like little girls. Grabbing our tickets and running wild, we ran off to make our first purchases of the day, Minnie Mouse ears, yes even the boys. After that it was time to start our extraordinary Disney adventure. Splitting like a banana spilt, we all peeled off into different directions. Fighting off the crowds, we hunted down the biggest thrill we could find, while the biggest shock was the wait for the rides. Often taking up to an hour, we braved the lines and amused ourselves with silly childish games, eventually getting to the front the adventure finally started. 
Between rides we amazed by the fine detail that was put into every attraction, which made us feel like we were in a completely different world. Before we knew it our stomachs were growling and a new choice arose, what would be for lunch? From full meals to small snacks we all had something entirely different for lunch. After lunch was over it was time for our group ride on space mountain at 2pm. A full 2 hours passed and we finally made to the front of the line, only to come to realisation that there was another line inside. 
The wait was worth every minute and no one was disappointed, even the photos were good. Splitting again some of us ran off to Walt Disney Studios to discover a new world of exquisite attractions. With most of us daring the tower of terror, time flew by so quickly and it was time again to meet up with everyone for the parade. Bursting with excitement as we saw our childhood heroes parade by us, we ended a great day with a huge buffet dinner, even with refillable drinks. 
Frantically grabbing last souvenirs, we left the park in high spirits. Awkward salmoning, jumping, skipping, rolling and so many other awkward things we got to the bus and collapsed after a hard days work. Barely being able to keep our eyes open we saw a perfectly magical Disney sunset, which completely aced our dreamy day. 
Oh Mickey, you're so fine, you've blown my mind!
