Disneyland in Paris

Today, we decided to go to Disneyland Paris. It was fun, but only because Frenchie and I have fun together no matter what we do. However, it's bizarre to go on rides when it's a different language. Like, the Haunted House was really weird to me, kinda freaky.
Ok not sure if you remember me talking about how Frenchie gets lost at Disneyland because he always walks so fast.... well today it happened. How hard is it to lose a 52-year-old American Man trying to look like a Frenchman with his baret'? I took my eyes off him for 2 seconds, and POOF, he was gone, disappeared out of thin air. I remember one time we went to Disneyworld with Lisa and Chris Randall, and they had taught their children to stand still and not move if they got lost, so I thought I would try that..... I sat in a chair for about 1/2 hour until I wondered????? how long would it take for him to realize I was missing from his side? Do I wait? or do I try and find him? I walked outside for just a minute to see if I could see him. Yeah, there he was videotaping the Character of Parades that was going on... he didn't even know I was missing. I think the Randalls idea may work for 5 year old's, but for 50+-year-olds, I'm not sure what will work...any ideas???? He had no idea, not a clue that I had been waiting on him to find me. He didn't care. He was enjoying the parade.


Disneyland was so busy, just like in America. The lines were long, and it was hot. It wore me out today, and I was glad to leave when we did.

Frenchie's choice for a most unique look, I'm not sure if this is within the rules; she is not handicapped. However, I'm not sure this is her choice to look like this. ..... I Win again.


My choice for the most unique look of the day ✔

Most gigantic McDonald's I have ever seen; no, we did not eat here.




I love the flowers and landscaping at Disneyland.
