Today I started with a sleep in and then took the train 2 stations to a bakery. I finally got myself some French pastries! They were delicious!
I headed out to Disneyland mid afternoon when there was a break in the rain. It's a long way out of town & takes an hour to get there. I had entry to both parks so there would be plenty to do for the 6hrs I would be there. Fortunately the rain stopped a couple of hours after I arrived. The rides I went on were great! The Star Wars hypercoaster was incredible! And the Hollywood Hotel Tower of Terror was truly frightening. My stomach is still not back in the right spot!
At 10pm there is a light show called Disney Illuminations. I got a position at 9.15pm as people were starting to line up already! 9.50pm they teased us with a little warmup. Then at 10pm the show started. It was absolutely amazing! They had scenes from movies projected onto the castle and Mickey was traveling through them and they had music and everything. Annnd..... They had fireworks included!!!! It was amazing! It went for 20 minutes! The whole video is on YouTube so check it out. The final fireworks scenes are awesome. I have to admit too, that Let It Go from Frozen just didn't have the same effect when they sing in French!
Then I joined the thousands all headed for the train back to Paris. Tomorrow I go to Orly airport to pick up a rental car & go see Somme Chateaus in the Loire region before flying to Oslo tomorrow night.
