Disneyland Parc - Friday 13th January

So breakfast over, we headed over to the Disneyland Parc.

Had a quick wander around the park and we found our first ride of the day: Phantom Manor. It was a bit foggy this morning and so we got a nice spooky photo :)

We continued through Frontierland and took a quick ride on Big Thunder Mountain before heading into Adventurland to take a ride on Pirates of the Carribean.

We managed to get on quite quickly, Leona was a little scared by some of the 'people' but she was ok in the end.

We got off the ride and who should we see? Any ideas?

Captain Jack Sparrow! I was so excited - I really wanted to meet him when we were at Disneyworld last year but the queue was over an hour long so I gave it a miss :(

I got in the queue which wasn't that long and managed to meet him, he was so funny!

We had a quick chat and then he asked me who the man with the black box (camera) was:

Me: "That's my boyfriend"
JS: "I'm SO sorry"

He was brilliant! I don't even like the movies but Capt Jack is a great character :)

After all the excitement we headed into Fantasyland and rode most of the rides:

• Small World
• Snow White
• Pinocchio
• Dumbo
• Mad Hatters Tea Cups
• Carousel

Whilst we were there we also managed to meet a couple more characters:

The Queen of Hearts

The Mad Hatter!

Onto Discoveryland to grab a bite to eat as we were quite cold and hungry now :(

Food is quite expensive here - an adult chicken burger meal (burger, fries and drink) costs €9.99 which is quite shocking!

After eating we did a few more rides:

• Buzz Lightyear
• Space Mountain (ouch my head!)
• Star Tours

Then we took a ride on the Walt Disney Railroad all the way back to Fantasyland.

We then rode Peter Pan's flight using fastpass as it had been having technical difficulties earlier. The cast member did point at our out of date fastpasses but once we told her that it had been broken down she let us through :)

We only had the Indiana Jones ride left so we went over to Adventurland and walked straight on! It was faster than expected and Rob's mum didn't realise it went upside down :)

We then went and got a hot drink ready to watch the parade. Managed to get front row 'seats' in front of the castle which was good - although Leona was still hiding from the characters!

After the parade we had a few photos taken and did a bit of shopping before we left the park:

We left the park and went to Earl of Sandwich for dinner before heading back to the hotel to bed. We were all quite tired and had an early start planned for the next day!
