We had a great time despite the first two days of torrential rain - rain that soaked right through to your bones. We nicknamed the place 'Drizzlyland' - it's definitely a place to go when it is sunny! However, we joined the sea of yellow raincoats which turned the park into a 'bananaland' but it was necessary if we were to keep up the pace.
The kids had an absolute ball. They were much more adventurous than last year - and we even got to do some older stuff like Pirates of the Carribbean and Buzz Lightyear which was brilliant.
Our hotel was the New York - right at the end of Disneyland village and each morning when we stepped out of the lift there was a Disney character waiting there to have their photo taken with the little ones. Such excitement ...
Outside our hotel was a great big ice skating ring - and Eva insisted on having a go (she was a big fan of the recent 'Dancing on Ice' and thought she could go on and do a 'Bonnie' ). However, she did extremely well for her first time, better than her dad!
I have to say the highlights of our trip were firstly the daily parade which featured all the best characters and stories - really magical!
The other highlight for me was Space Mountain - the only way I can describe this is a two minute insight into what it is like to freefall in a plane crash - horrendous but the sense of relief to find that you hadn't died at the end of it was amazing! That's Ed and I in the back row hanging on to our hats - too scared to scream...
