Plaza Gardens Character Breakfast – Disney Dining Series

To add to my Disney Dining Series I decided to review my experience of having a character breakfast at the Plaza Gardens restaurant at Disneyland Paris. It’s always good to know a bit more about these especially at Disney, so you can decide if it’s something you want to include in a trip. I know a looked up a lot of reviews to help make my decisions when booking.

Due to having an amazing time at a character dining on my previous trip I knew I definitely wanted to do another one but something different. That’s when we decided to give a character breakfast a go as we really wanted to eat at Plaza Gardens restaurant as well as meeting characters.

Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show – Disney Dining Series

On my most recent trip to Disneyland Paris I was lucky enough to dine at and experience Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show. Since this was our second trip we knew it was a definite to do after hearing such great things on our first visit to the parks.

Buffalo Bill’s is located in the Disney Village and is unique to Disneyland Paris. The dinner show is based on the legends of the Wild West including Buffalo Bill and Chief Sitting Bull and shows re-enactments of their adventures and shootouts.

imPRESS Press-On Manicure Review

I’ve always loved having my nails done and even doing them myself with nail art. However one thing that really puts me off doing them is how likely there are to chip. So sometimes I use ‘stick on’ false nails.

Over the years I’ve tried different types and difficulty brands and to be honest the ones I’ve had are ok as in really nice design but will not stay on at all. Hence the reason for this post I thought it would be helpful if people are looking for good ones as I wish someone would of recommended imPRESS to me sooner.

I can’t believe it’s already New Year’s Eve! The year has flew by and has been jam packed with amazing things. Since the year is ending I thought it would be a good opportunity to have all of the major things that made the year in one place (especially since a large portion of it wasn’t blogged).

Fenwick’s ‘Santa’s Cinema on the Rooftop’ Experience!

So a few weeks ago I went to Fenwick’s Santa’s Cinema on the Rooftop. This year the department store is hosting Santa’s Grotto on the Rooftop where children can visit Santa and the elves.

New for this year they have added a cinema which shows The Snowman, the theme for their famous window this year, when Santa’s Grotto is open. On Friday and Saturday nights up until Christmas the cinema is showing a range of classic Christmas films.

Disney’s Hotel New York – Review

On our recent trip to Disneyland Paris we stayed at Disney’s Hotel New York. It is a 4 key rating much like Disney’s Newport Bay Club Hotel we stayed in on our first trip (you can check out that review from earlier in the year.) We had this high on our list as a place to stay so we couldn’t wait!

So I’ve just returned from another amazing trip at Disneyland Paris!! I can’t believe I can say this was my 2nd visit of the year and this time I got to experience my first Disney Park event!

I thought I would do a review on the Halloween Soirée event as it only happens one night a year, the 31st, at DLP and it’s always good to know a bit more.

Disney’s Newport Bay Club Hotel – Review

So many of you probably know from my blog and social media (sorry not sorry for overload!) that I had my first trip to Disneyland Paris this month. It was an amazing trip made even better by staying at the parks Newport Bay Club Hotel.

The hotel is the biggest onsite and is based around a New England and nautical theme. So while that’s is specific character or film theming it has hints of the iconic Steamboat Willie cartoon and obviously Donald Duck. All of the main classic characters are incorporated (will explain further down.)
