15 of the best things about Disneyland
21:20
Hello! Nicole here! If you read my personal blog you may have read that I'm going to Disneyland soon! Who doesn't love a bit of Disney? With August fast approaching, Lucas’ passport application sat in Glasgow passport offices, weather brightening up, budgeting with money sat in savings ready to be turned into Euros, shopping list growing by the day and all I can think about now is whats in store when I get there. I went to Disney world in Florida when I was sixteen with an old boyfriend and now the memories are slightly tarnished, so I am excited to make new memories with my little family.
I originally said 10, but found myself going on.
1. Mickey mouse pancakes I am so excited to try the traditional Mickey mouse shaped pancakes! You have to eat Mickey pancakes for breakfast right?
2. The first sight of the castle
The feeling in your tummy as you walk up to the castle and you catch the first glimpse, the excitement that runs through your veins and the smile that goes on your face. Clique and cheesy I know, but every true Disney fan will know exactly what i mean.
3. The fireworks show
The firework show at night the awe and breathtaking fireworks show, seeing Lucas’ little face light up, Brad’s face light up and just knowing thats exactly where you need to be, in Disney bubble forever.
4. Ride on “it’s a small world”
It’s meant to be the happiest, most colourful, joyful ride of all! I think Lucas will be in wanderlust!
5. See the disney magic Parade
Seeing all the characters riding by and the music playing, Lucas waving as they go by, it’s magic and even for me, it’s a childhood (adult) dream come true.
6. Meet the characters!
Lucas adores Frozen, Sofia the first, Doc Mcstuffins, Mickey mouse clubhouse, Dumbo and watches other disney films with us, as we’re collectors of the films and we collect the Disney books for Lucas. I can’t wait to see his face light up when he sees them, i’m under no allusion that he may have no idea who they are when we get up close, he may get scared or be confused but I am hoping that he isn’t and if he is then… well I can’t wait to meet Elsa, Anna and Olaf and my fave ARIEL! I’m a huge big kid! Even the statues make me excited.
7. The frozen experience
When we go they have the Frozen summer fun running, its running from June 1st - September 13th and I cannot wait to see it! Especially as Lucas loves Frozen. I REALLY want to build a snowman.
8. Ride on the disney train
Who doesn’t want to ride the disney train? Choo choo.
9. Eating at a disney restaurant
Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE PIZZA, pasta and anything italian really, so If I can get a table to eat here, I WILL, I think it will be great and look what else they’ve got in it.
THE CLAAAW!
10. The Hotel stay
We’re staying at the Disney explorers hotel! We’re in one room and my mum, her partner and his children are in another.
11. Buying loads of merchandise
The excitement of walking around with bags filled to the brim with merchandise! What more could you want or need? I may need to bring back another suitcase!
12. Wearing Minnie mouse ears around the parks
Its probably one of the only time its accepted. It may be clique but its a must! Be a kid for a few days and never worry about anyone else!
13. The Ratatouille ride
Its one of the newest rides and it’s got very good reviews, so we must try it, i am not sure what to expect but I am excited!
14. The photograph opportunities
As a photographer, any opportunity to take a photo and I will, I passed my photography course at college with photos of my trip to Disneyworld, so I can’t wait to take loads of pictures!
15. Making memories
The memories are the most important part here, having the best time and having a smile on your face for days straight, thats what it is all about! Lucas is what it is all about.
Are you off on holiday this year? Have you been to Disney? Have I missed anything vital? I’d love to know.
