So I decided to visit my sister this long weekend. Well, she happens to work in Disneyland, so that's where I went yesterday. Did a lot of fun things, though the most exciting was probably being caught by security backstage and being herded into their office (don't ask). But here's a couple of the pictures from then:

Me and my sister in front of Disney Castle:

Here's me pondering on how to remove the damn sword from the stone:

Ah, the magic of Disney: Rocks with outlets!

And look at the zany hats parents spend fortunes on:

And I'm too short to go on the Temple of Doom ride :(

And here's what happened to us after security got finished interrogating us:

Whoo! :( I've not been to Paris.

Whoo! :( I've not been to Paris.Tis awefully crowded. Not like Berlin. Too many people on too little space. I seriously had to make myself as tall as I could and walk with a brisk pace and a look on my face that said "Get out of my way or you'll get crushed underfoot" in order to get through some places. Strangely enough, that actually worked. The French made space for me! :D

Shameless advertising coloured red.

Ahahaha.. the hats!

When I went to Disney.. in Orlando that is.. We took about 40 pictures of all the hats..

Shameless advertising coloured red.Well, Berlin is actually larger by area while Paris is larger by population. Go figure... (and don't forget all the tourists...)

I wasn't disagreeing with you!

I wasn't disagreeing with you!I know. Just wanted to point out why. I've got a lot of pictures from the rides too, but I don't have a scanner...

Adorable. And cute!

I didn't like Eurodisney all that much when I was there last time, what was it, in 2000, I think. Took the RER from Paris to Marne-la-Vallé. Took bloody forever.

I've been sleeping at my sister's place. Since she works there, they provide accomodation relatively close enough to get there on time for work.

EDIT: Oh, did I mention, the Queen of Hearts is actually a guy? :p

I kissed her.. his hand!

Does this mean.. Disney made me gay?

Oh, then I guess it would be silly not to pay it a visit. If you're staying in Paris, it's really almost not worth the effort - I find la Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie (http://www.cite-sciences.fr/) and Parc de la Villette more interesting, but I'm into edutainment and quirky architecture.

Now you tell me! That bitch was hot.

And she knows most of the people that sell the overpriced pictures after you get out of the rides ;)
Now you tell me! That bitch was hot.Had a pissy mood though. None of the children dared to go near her. Twas awfully difficult not stepping on them too! :eek:

If you're trying to make me jealous, you are being partially successful, but only because I miss Paris so much.

I did say the bitch.

Oh, and isn't she supposed to be mean? She's not nice in the book.

Phbt, any time that Berlin can be advertised, it should be. I lived there the summer before last and it is truly the most awesome place on Earth. I wanna go back noowwwww.

Yes, Berlin (http://www.berlin.de/english/index.html), well, if you want to back to Berlin (http://www.berlin.de/english/index.html), you know, Berlin (http://www.berlin.de/english/index.html), in Germany, then feel free to go to Berlin (http://www.berlin.de/english/index.html).

Disney sucks.

If I went to paris, i would go there to see paris. not disneyworld.

Disney sucks.

Let me take an edumacated guess at this one.....

*glances into crystal ball*

*calls Mrs. Cleo*

*she looks into her crystal ball*

*calls me back*

*orders 3 3 3 deal from dominos*

IS IT BECAUSE DISNEY IS AMERICAN?

Eurodisney really does suck. It's almost infamous in that respect. It being American just adds a nuance to the suckiness, not cause.

From the sword pic in the first post.. I can tell you, Disney reallllly tries to make each park diverse.. actually, no, I laughed at it becaust if I'm correct, in the background in that pic is a merry-go-round.. same fucking set up in FL.

No. Its because they make very horrible films.

The sword is in an anvil in that picture, not in a stone!

The sword is in an anville in that picture; it's not in a stone!
Pffft!

Oh I mean, ahh the diversity.

Oi, I corrected that spelling of anvil and removed the extravagant use of the semicolon!

Disney sucks.

If I went to paris, i would go there to see paris. not disneyworld.Disneyworld isn't in Paris, Disneyland is. Indeed, passing up on getting in for free if someone offers it to you is your problem, not mine. I toured Paris yesterday, I just couldn't be bothered to upload the pictures yet.

Disneyworld isn't in Paris, Disneyland is.
Same thing.
