So, to say I'm excited is an understatement. I can't see the Disney tickers unless I'm on my laptop (they don't show up on mobile for me) so I got a countdown app, set for 2pm on the day we arrive which is our exact arrival time.
Who?
Me, 38
Mum, 65
When?
Monday 23rd September to Wednesday 25th September
Where?
Staying in the Disneyland Hotel, travelling direct to and from Ashford on the Eurostar.
What?
I'm concentrating on rides and meeting characters, the only show I want to see is Mickey's PhilharMagic and I'm not excited by shopping so I'll just get a few small items as presents and maybe some sweets. I also want to fit in swimming in the hotel pool. We're hoping to have meals at Chez Remy, Café Agrabah, Auberge du Cendrillon, Plaza Gardens and of course Inventions in the hotel. Hopefully the travel agent will sort our reservations but if not I have a bookmark to the post where there's a link to restaurant reservations in English, next Tuesday is the earliest date that we can book.
Trip shopping update
So far I have bought; a Minnie Mouse ears headband, Minnie Mouse earrings, a Minnie Mouse necklace, a personalised autograph book and some cheap sunglasses that are red with white polka dots. The autograph book has two pages for each character and the characters are in alphabetical order, one page is for a photo and the other for the autograph.
Still on my list to buy: RFID blocking hidden neck wallet, 2 Disney lanyards (1 for me and 1 for Mum), spray on factor 50 sunblock, lip balm with sunblock, blister plasters, rain poncho, comfort gel insoles for shoes, a Sharpie pen and bookmark for my autograph book, assorted sweet and savoury snacks and a couple of Robinsons Squashed so I can have squash in my water bottle. There were supposed to be pictures with this post but I can't figure out how to attach them, everything seems greyed out on the options at the top. I'll try tonight on my laptop.
