Disneyland Paris Day 4

So the final day of what has been an amazing holiday in Disneyland Paris. The boys have thoroughly enjoyed themselves and did not want to come home. We spent the morning back in Disneyland Park and pretty much just let the boys have one final go on all their favourite rides. We were pretty lucky on our last day in that the cues were virtually non existent for most of the rides and some of them we were managed to walk straight on (and even stay on for a second go).

The boys took the lazy route to the Park entrance on the final day and jumped about this little shuttle train from our hotel to the Cafe Mickey.
Tina wimped out on the tea cups because me and the boys like spinning it as fast as we can.

Back on the boats and I think Joshua was starting to flag a little and was quite happy to just sit on this ride and go around a few times.

The two boys on our boat.

Balancing the camera on the bow of the boat and using the timer function gave this rare shot of all four of us.

Joshua stays on the boat with Mummy for another ride whilst me and Brandon head for the Circus Train.

Due to the cues being pretty small today, me and Brandon managed to get prime spot driving at the front of the train.

The anticipation on Brandon's face before our train goes zooming off around the track.
Finally Brandon had realised that everything inside "Its a small world" is pretend and now finally enjoys the ride. So we squeezed in another few chillaxing rides around this.

A bit of Amsterdam.

The Rialto bridge from Venice.

At around 11am the park started to get really busy and so we squeezed in one more ride and then headed off to Cafe Mickey for our final character dinner. Once again the boys were in the right place at the right time and managed to capitalise on some of the Disney transport with an old fire engine ride back to the main entrance. 

What a spectacular old fire engine.

And what a nice way to finish our time in Disneyland Park.

Off they go leaving me with the buggy and baggage!
Our last meal in Paris was very memorable as it was another character dinner in Mickey Cafe. We pretty much saw all the same characters as the breakfast we had on day 2, but the boys still thoroughly enjoyed it. Joshua got a Disney telling off though as he tried interact with the bunny by pulling his costume trying to get his attention for a high 5. 

Me and Brandon with the pooh bear bunny rabbit.

A family picture with Pluto. Pluto even did a good little dance routine to celebrate someones birthday in the restaurant.

Me and Brandon with Gepetto. Brandon was still a little cautious of Gepetto and insisted I went in the middle for the picture.

A red cheeked Joshua with the living legend, Mickey Mouse. As you can see Joshua was more worried about his dinner than Mickey.

A family picture with one of the chipmunks, check out Brandon's beautiful smile.

Finally Joshua takes his mind off of food and smiles for a character picture.
On a final tour of the gift shops there was a funny moment where Joshua found one of those CD towers with headphones to sample the music. It was hilarious to turn around and see him getting down and strutting his stuff to some Disney tunes!


The boys were once again fantastic on the way home. It was a long journey and they only actually slept for about 20 mins or so. Brandon was just excited about going through more tunnels, instead "Are we home yet", all we got from him is "Is the tunnel here yet?". After a very active 4 days in Paris I think we could all do with another week off to recover.
