*~ Paris Disneyland ~* Day 1

I went to Paris Disneyland on the 22nd of March. I went to London on the 21st by a train from Cardiff Central. Upon my arrival at London Paddington's Station, I was welcomed by Emma and went to her aunty's by an underground tube. Well, it only take around few minutes to reach to the destination.

Early morning on the next day, Emma, her 2 cousins and I, went to St. Pancras Station by a Taxi. From St. Pancras station, we went to Paris De Nord by a train called Eurostar. The journey took about 3 hours.

Once we arrived at the train station, we took another train from Paris Du Nord to Paris Disneyland (Marne-La-Vallee-Chessy). Of course, there are some changes during the trip (it was not a direct destination). We arrived at Marne La Vallee Chessy station at noon.

The train we took just under the first train station, from Paris Du Nord to Marne La Vallee, Chessy

Once we exit from Marne-La-Vallee- Chessy station, we had landed to DISNEYLAND PARIS!! :)

The exit from the train station to Disneyland

On the right side, it is Disneyland Park and Studios. Meanwhile, on the left side, it is Disney's Village. Just beside of the station, there is waiting area for hotel's shuttle bus.

So without further due, we jumped in to Santa Fe's Hotel shuttle bus and that is where our magical journey began.

Once we checked into the hotel, we went to our "suite". Our room was located just behind the registration building. I t was one of the 4 rooms of a two storey building.

Santa Fe's hotel is a two star hotel located in Disneyland Theme Park and it is a few minutes ride fro/to the park. It is a Western - themed hotel.

After stuffing our hungry stomach with our packed foods, we do not waste the precious time and went to Disney Studios for the whole afternoon.

While waiting for the shuttle bus to come

Inside of Disney Studios' Park, there were 8 mini studios which required your undivided attention; some of those are Finding Nemo studio, Cinemagique, Animagique, Rock and Roll Rollercoaster and Art of Animation. We spent the whole afternoon at the Studios and spend the rest of the evening at Disney's Village for sight-seeing. Only the pictures below can described how much I love being there...

Some pictures will be posted at the next chapter........ :)

Disney Village is an area in Disneyland at which Disney stores are all put together at one place and also where visitors can enjoy a meal. Not only Disney stores available here, but there is also Planet Hollywood Paris. Beautiful scenery at the lake located in the centre of Disney Village.

That is how our first day in Paris ends. Stay tune for the second day in Paris.
