Set Those Disneyland Paris Expectations Correctly (from an American)! | UK/France Trip 2023

We're BACK! We knew we had to visit during the 30th anniversary celebration, especially after mom saw photos of the Garden of Wonders! After previous visits with friends, this is our first time guiding ourselves so we’re aiming to experience everything unique to Disneyland Paris. Along the way we share some of our top tips and ways to set your expectations appropriately for your first trip to this park.

We made the most of our half day at Walt Disney Studios Park. After experiencing an E-stop on Avengers Flight Force, we check out the Super Diner, wander through Ratatouille's shop and try out Cars Road Trip. We make it on the Iron Man coaster at Avengers Campus—something we don't have back home in California before moving over to the main park. It’s complete joy as we toast the 30th anniversary with champagne and mom finally gets to oooh and aaah over the kinetic sculptures. It’s Small World, Storybook Land boats, dinner at the Silver Spur steakhouse and souvenir shopping before heading back to Studios to wrap up the day with the Avengers drone show, even if the weather didn't cooperate. Can't wait for more magical moments tomorrow.
