Disneyland Paris

Saturday: I woke up around 9:30am, showered and got ready for a long, exciting day and made my way to the Gare de L'Est metro station to decipher my way to The Park. There were two line-switches (I have no idea what they're called, clearly I don't use public transportation often) to get to the train that would take me 35 minutes outside of Paris, to Marne-la-Vallée.

It was really pretty easy, and when I wasn't sure which way the approaching train (which is really still a subway, I guess it just goes faster) was going, I simply followed this French gangster boy, who just happened to drop a his Disneyland name-tag on the ground at the train station.

Then I proceeded to take pictures of him without his knowledge and post them on the internet.

The Park was the last stop on the train, then I ran out and bought a park hopper ticket. I didn't have my Blue Main Gate Pass, but they gave me a pretty decent discount because I had my Cast ID. I headed into Disneyland Park first, of course.

Sleeping Beauty Castle, or Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant

Under the castle to the left is a cave with a dragon (!!) in it! It can move its head, wings and tail around as he blinks and roars (or do dragons growl?) and blows smoke. Even his fingers drum the edge of the rocks in the water. It's fucking awesome.
