Heya!
I hope you are very well! Today's post is a very exciting one! (Well I think it is anyway haha). So as you have probably already guessed from the title it is about my trip to Disney Land which I went on very recently.
I went for two days and one night and went with my friends Ella and Charlotte.
We actually flew out very early in the morning and had transport to our hotel, we then got to the Disney park at 10 am ready for it opening. I will talk about what we did on day one later on in the post. Once day one was complete we went back to our hotel on the free bus service. Our hotel was very close by, it wasn't actually a Disney hotel but everyone there was basically there to go to Disney land. In the morning we had our breakfast which was included with our hotel price and then we set back of to the Disney park to start day two, which I will also talk more about later on in the post. We then had a late flight back at around 10 pm. It was a really amazing and super action packed two days and I am still buzzing from it. So anyway let me get down to what we actually did and what it was like.
So first things first we flew to Paris. I was probably more nervous about the flight then I was anything else. However the flight was surprisingly alright. I didn't get travel sick and it was a super quick journey.
Once we arrived in Paris we had a chauffeur drive us from the airport to our hotel, which may I say felt very fancy.

Once we were had dropped our things of at the hotel we got the free bus service to the Disney park.
Now I don't know if I have mentioned but this was my first time at Disney so everything was just amazing. It was hard to take it all in to be honest. The first thing we did was saw the castle. This was truly very special and memorizing. We of course took lots of selfies and pictures in front of the castle like typical tourists.
We then spent the rest of our first day enjoying lots of the rides in the first park. We went on rides such as 'Its a small world' and of course the carousel ride.
We also got a spot of lunch where we got to watch children perform Disney themed songs whilst eating. I had a fish burger and chips which was actually super yummy.
For the second half of day one at Disney we of course watched the parade. The parade was so magical and honestly one of my favourite things. There was all the characters all glam'ed up and so realistic. It was such a happy and cheerful event, people dancing and the 'magic everywhere' song being played from every corner of the route, it genuinely did feel magical. The characters also were really interactive with everyone and made it so special.
Once the parade had finished we went to have our dinner. On the first day we had our dinner at Annette's Diner. It was super cool. There were waitresses and waiters on roller skates and the whole decor was like a genuine diner. There was a jukebox and super nice pastel green and pink booths. I had a cheeseburger and chips which was also very tasty.
After we had our dinner we went back to the main part of the first park ready to watch the fireworks display and show by the castle. The show was very magical. the fireworks sparkled in the dark sky and the songs with the light displays over the castle was very emotional and touching. A perfect way to end our first day at Disney.
We then took the free bus back to our hotel and settled in for the night. I went straight of to sleep which is a first for me but no surprise due to how tired I was.
Now day two of Disney was here. We got up nice and early and had our breakfast at the hotel (I basically had a whole plate of hash browns haha). We then got our bus to the park and our second day at Disney begun.
For our second day we went to the other Disney Park. This was also super cool. There was loads of rides in this park and also a lot of history behind Disney.
I must not forget we also MET MICKEY MOUSE AND BUZZ LIGHTYEAR! Goals to be honest haha. They were super cool and we got some professional photos with them.
Whilst in this park we also went on a tram tour around the behind scenes part of Disney. We learnt about the special effects, the costumes and everything that goes into making each thing how it is. This was really fascinating to hear about. We also got to meet Spiderman later on in the day and had a wonder around the park looking at the really cool aesthetics and of course taking lots of pictures.
We then went back to have another look around the first park which we had been to on the previous day as it was so big and we wanted to have another look around. We actually saw Princess Belle and Mary Poppins whilst on our stroll around there.
To finish of our Disney experience in the park we went inside the very famous Disney land castle. We went and had a look inside and it was all very mesmerizing.
There were beautiful stained glass windows which represented different magical moments from the Disney films. It was very grand and a great experience. We also got to look out from the top of the castle were we could oversee all of the park.
For our Dinner on day two we went to Planet Hollywood. A really cool restaurant with different historical pieces from the music industry displayed around the walls. (A bit like the Hard Rock Cafe if you have ever been there).
We then were chauffeured back to the airport for our flight home (and at this point we were all struggling to stay awake after being exhausted from the excitement and long days we had juat had).
We then of course flew home and despite our flight being slightly delayed we still got home before 12 (I think haha) and the flight again was really good. It was actually a very beautiful view as everything was in darkness but at the same time everything was lit up. We could even see places like Wembley as we flew over it!
It was genuinely a great trip and such a great experience especially as I had never been before. I hope you have also enjoyed reading about it. Also as I said I went with my two friends Ella and Charlotte. Some of the images which I used were of course my own and some where Ella's. I will leave the link to her blog below as she too has done a post on the experience.
Thanks so much for reading! See you very soon!
