During my visit to Disneyland Paris in November we bought annual passes (as it was cheaper than a 4 day ticket). Considering this, and the fact that the new Ratatouille ride was opening, we figured it would be rude not to visit! And compared to the gloom and doom of the wintery months, the park was looking lush in the summer sun. On park it was fairly busy but we managed to squeeze in all the greatest hits as well as catch up with some characters and spend a fair amount of time in the new Parisien area themed to Ratatouille. We had an amazing time, it was just the right dose to help get rid of my Disney withdrawals.

Gorgeous detail on the fountain in the Ratatouille area. This new land is incredibly detailed and immersive. It's an attraction in itself just to stand and take it all in. |

And that was it for our few days at Disneyland. It was fab but the crowds reminded me why I tend to avoid the summer, too many opportunities for getting annoyed about screaming children and clashes in culture being mistaken for rudeness.
