Disneyland Paris

We took the kids to Disneyland Paris to celebrate Thanksgiving 2013.  We didn't tell them until the night before and we were a little surprised that they were happy, but not overly excited about the prospect.  Cole seemed to think it wasn't as good as Disney World - he was probably right, but come on, he's 5!
It was a relatively short drive to the park from Brussels.  We checked into our hotel Wednesday afternoon and headed over to Disneyland.  It was magically decorated for Christmas.  I think this was the biggest attraction.  Main Street USA is enchanting with twinkling lights, Christmas balls, shops and garland.  When they made it snow, Jesse & I almost believed it, it was so real.  The castle is beautiful and the park was pretty empty so we could get a good view of everything, including the best part of the trip, the parades.  The dancers, the floats, the kids watching with twinkling eyes - this is why adults come to Disney.  The food, the service, the accommodations, the climate - these should not be mentioned above necessity.  We'll try to go back again before we leave the continent. It was worth it!
