Blogs from Marne-la-Vallée, Île-de-France, France, Europe

Pour rencontrer Mickey, Alexiane prend la route avant de retourner à l'école (rentrée luxembourgeoise le 15 septembre !), et s'installe allègrement dans Pollux pour quelques jours... En principe elle n'aime pas trop les kilomètres mais est toute heureuse d'arriver enfin à Marne la Vallée.... Nous avions prévu d'aller lui montrer la Tour Eiffel, ce sera pour une autre fois... JJ souffrant d'une hernie discale, il ne faut pas forcer les choses... Il nous faudra donc un jour prévoir une nouvelle petite escapade à Paris avec elle... En attendant, retombez en enfance comme nous l'avons fait nous mêmes, à la découverte de tant de souvenirs d'enfance.... A noter qu'un bon quart des photos ont été prises par Alexiane ! Bravo ! Laissez cours à votre imagination pour les photos non-renommées... Quant à la prochaine sortie de Pollux... ... read more

More updated entries and trips will NOT have a note like this. Thank you! January 2, 2007, around 9 AM GMT- I get ready to leave my hostel in order to head to the train station and head to my next destination, Paris. I wanted to go back because all and all I had had only 3 days to actually visit Paris as a tourist, and I realized that there was still much of the city I had not seen and/or fully visited. For example, I had only seen the exterior facade of the Louvre with my Parisian friend (for more info please refer to blog entry with the ... read more

Disneyland. S We got to Disneyland after coming from Champagne. My favourite rides were Dumbo the flying elephant. It was a kids one but I still liked it because you got to control wether it goes up or down. My next favourite was Autopia which was a car driving one where you drive around the course and little kids and babies get to drive as long as there is an adult in the car  the first time we did it i got stuck behind this little baby and they were going so slow,  and we did it twice  My next favourite one was Indiana Jones  it was a roller coaster. It was fast and you did a whole loop and you went upside down. It was cool. And my last favourite one was Crushs Coaster. It ... read more

We got to Disneyland late in the afternoon coming back through Paris by train. After we checked in we got changed and went to Disneyland for the last few hours before it shut. To get to Disneyland we walked through 'The Village' which is a little street that had some restaurants and Disney shops along it. When we entered Disneyland there was a street going up the middle called Main Street which had mostly shops along it. At the end was the Sleeping Beauty castle which was sort of in the middle of Disneyland. Behind the castle was Fantasyland which had a lot of rides in it but were mostly for little kids but there were still some okay rides there. There was one ride called 'It's a Small World' which was a little boat ride ... read more

EUORSTAR Euorstar was so quick and easy easier than getting to an airport. We all enjoyed draging our bags down and up the stairs of the tube, there was works on the tube so we had to take two line to get to ST Pancras. Oh my god our arms were killing us. THe Euorstar only took 2hr and 15mins to get to Paris. Got there found the station to get our train to eurodisney how to get a ticket is another thing. Looking over peoples shoulders at ticket machines works in the end. We were lucky the trains were running the strike has been bad in FRnace and they had not been runing other days. But we got to EURODISNEY tied but we got there. Straight to the pool and for a sit down at ... read more
