Europe Trip - Paris Disneyland

Day 5: Woke up at 6 plus and had our breakfast.After that,we checked out of the hotel and made our way by Metro to Disneyland parks.We checked in our hotel first and got tickets to the theme parks.After that,we went straight to theme park!!We spent the full whole day in the Disneyland main park first.There was the Disney train which brought the Disney characters out to meet and take photos with the fans.Then there was performance by the Mickey Mouse and friends.There was the chipmunks,toy story,Lilo & Snitch,The Incredibles,Monsters Inc and even Ratatouille.It was showing 4 times a day and luckily it was not raining,so i managed to see the main parade at 4.30pm.Everyone was getting a seat near the road,just to see the parade.Too bad was that there was no fireworks in the night cos the parks' closing time was until 8pm and the sun was not even set!!Bought a nice t-shirt,collar pins and alot of gold coins.Regretted didn't buy the windbreaker there which was like 43 Euro.Sad.....

After a long day in the park,we went out to Disney Village.It was a street where there are alot of shops and restaurants.There is even a hot air balloon at the end of the street.They even kept a crocodile there in the village (fake one....lol)

Day 6:Woke up early so that we can enter the Disneyland park at 8am.We checked out the hotel and left our luggage at the hotel for the day.So we went down to Disneyland parks again,there are not many people there since it was 8am. I took PeterPan's flight ride 3 times as there is no queue yet.Hahahaha....it was not a roller coaster ride though but i like it.We stayed inside until 10am, followed that we went over the next theme parks, Walt Disney Studios.Most of the shows are in this park,but the timings for english was more to the afternoon.Anyway we just went to watch Disney Playhouse Live show first,followed by the motor action show.The motoshow action show was great!!It was a live show where they displayed action by motorcars and motorbikes used in great action movies.The host started out by introducing the action directors and they started with 4 black cars chasing a red car on the street.One of the black cars even broke into 2 parts,lol.After that,Hebe the racing car came out and split into 2 parts and went in separate directions.After the motorcars' action,it was motorbikes' turn to come in action.There are even gunshots and a man was set on fire.There is 1 part where the directors asked an audience to try to control a real car using a remote control.But the car was driving and ramming into anything in the way.In the end,the car turned out to be controlled by a driver at the side of the car.It was funny,the audience was given a certificate for fun too.They had a amazing finale where they put all the action together into a movie and the red car jumped out with a blast of fire on stage.

After the show,we walked around the park and went for our lunch.Had double cheeseburger meals and we stood eating at the table.After that, we went back to our hotel and collected our luggage.Then we went to a supermarket nearby the hotel and bought some biscuits.We made our way down to Gare de Lyon train station.The train station was quite dirty and smelly,think some people just peed at the station there as u need to pay to go to the toilet.Bought a sandwich from a bread stall,the cook was soooo rude.He just throwed the bread to us,and when he was giving us our change,he oso like threw the $ to us.And the bread he sells sucks!!No wonder his stall doesn't have people queuing up.

Finally,we got to board our train to go to Lausanne,where we transferred to another train to Zurich HB train station.Sat on the train for 3 hours plus long to reach Lausanne,walked out of the station for a while. After that,we boarded the train to Zurich which took like another 2 or 3 hours.Finally reached Zurich HB train station around 11 pm plus.Then we tried to find our hotel by walking,it took another 15 mins to 20 mins just to reach the hotel.Then we checked in and slept for the day.

Hotel stayed: X-tra Hotel
