  • Disney Fireworks

    There is a lightshow in Paris on the castle.

    image

    The camera doesn’t really catch how cool it was.

    image

    Because they are closer to people they can’t really fire off the big loud fireworks. Just the little flare ones.

    image

    The main focus was the castle itself and was much better than the version we had seen in Florida years ago.

    image

    It was still really pretty so we went both nights we visited the parks.

  • Disney Magic Parade

    In the evening they had their regular non-Halloween parade. That owl is scarier than anything in the Halloween parade.

    image

    Snow White’s face looks scary but only because we had the wrong camera

    image

    Alice in Wonderland is always terrifying.

    image

    The skull on Peter Pan’s ship is also scarier than the ghosts are allowed to be.

    image

    We aren’t sure what Mickey and Minnie’s float was supposed to be, but it was pink and sparkly so it’s all good.

    image

    Minnie’s dress was also pink and sparkly.

    image

    It was a very magical parade.

  • Disney Boat Ride Where Kerri Took Too Many Pictures

    They had a boat ride with models of many different fairy tales. Here’s Hansel und Gretel.

    Pierre et la loup (Peter and the Wolf).

    Beauty and the Beast.

    image

    That one from Fantasia with the big daemon thing.

    image

    We travelled through the cave of wonders. I guess we were worthy as we are still alive to tell the tale.

    image

    It would seem that quite a few people were worthy.

    image

    Weeeeeeeeeee.

  • Phantom Manor

    There is no haunted mansion in France. They do have a phantom manor though.

    The grounds are pretty big. I guess this guy got caught in a long queue and never made it on the ride.

    There were no fun gravestones out front but the decor was the same inside. Again there was alternating French and English.

    The two major differences were that the back yard went to some haunted wild west instead of just a backyard. It had a mad scientist with pink goo but Kerri was too excited to take a picture.

    Then the ghosts that join you don’t even come into the car but hang out on top. Florida definitely does it best.
