First off..its only because of the DIS boards that I was even able to get to grips with DLP so a big Thank you to everyone!!
Cast:
Me (33) single mum wanting to do something extra special for me DSs birthday this year as Christmas will be very quiet. My whole family will be on the other side of the world in NZ so it will just be him and I .
DS (6 when we arrive, 7 when we leave) also known as The little Dude
Hes the best little man in the world. Hes mad about everything Disney (especially Pixar but Im working on him with the oldies) and celebrating his birthday in the park is the Best Gift EVER! (his words)
Were total first timers so you can only imagine the excitement in our house at the thought of going to the most magical place in the world!!
So the trip
Were going to be staying in the Cheyenne from the 13th to the 17th October. Our flight is from Dublin at 7am and we live about 45 mins from the airport so well be up at 3.30am We arrive at CDG at 9.45am and are getting the VEA bus (The tickets came as part of my package). So Im guesstimating but I reckon well make it to DLP at about 11.30am.
The plan is to check in, drop the bags and head straight to the village for some lunch and then the park for some serious playtime!!
That night Im thinking were going to do dinner at a cheap counter service as Im sure my little man will probably fall asleep into his food!
Breakfast in Café Mickey is booked for 9.30am on the 14th and as we have EMH I was thinking we could go into the park at 8 and then head out for breakfast after having done a few rides. Were planning on staying in the park until about 12 and then are going to get the RER into Paris as my sons favorite movie is the Hunchback of Notre Dame and he has told me that he has GOT to see that (and the Eiffel tower). One of my best friends (Tracey) lives in Paris and is going to meet and spend the day with us!
The plan for the next day (15th) is to have a rest in the morning (Think well need it!) and then hit the Studios for the early afternoon. We have MNSSHP tickets for that night and our costumes all organized so we cant wait for that.
The 16th is my DSs 7th birthday!! (Cant believe hes 7 already ). Have already bought a day ticket for Tracey so shes going to come and join us for the day. This also means I get to do some of the rides that my son cant go on!
Have Café Mickey booked for that night with a birthday cake and cant wait for see my DSs face when it comes out!! Hes going to be so surprised
We go home on the 17th but dont have to get the bus until 5pm so will spend the day in the park doing whatever we can before we go (including spending the last of our money on lovely things to bring home)
So..thats the plan and I just cant wait. I have a countdown clock on my computer and as of right now its showing:
47 days
1144 hours
68697 minutes
4121852 seconds
