Disneyland Paris

Visiting Disneyland with a toddler is the perfect excuse, especially when it's just a quick 2-hour train ride away! We planned this as a weekend getaway, with two full days in the park and a night at a nearby hotel, just a 15-minute bus ride away. We went with Dora's sister's family, making us a group of six, with two toddlers in tow.

The place was as magical as expected. Although Natalie is probably too young to remember much of this, we'll have the photos to show her when she's older. We spent the days doing rides that were toddler-friendly, and when it came to the more thrilling attractions, we took turns staying with the buggy. It was a bit exhausting with all the walking, but the experience was totally worth it.

I couldn't help but compare this visit to our Disneyland trip in Hong Kong ten years ago. While I can't remember all the details from back then, this time felt more immersive, especially since we had time to explore both the Disney Kingdom and the Hollywood Studios next door. I have to admit, Hollywood Studios was more my “cup of tea”—definitely a fun time!
