One of the girls I work with is in Paris right now too... I told her to watch out for a really tall bloke who looks like he might be lost. :lol:

So Greg you have been lurking on the forum - how were the parks?

I got another email from Greg today. He's in London for a few days at the moment. He really enjoyed Paris (the city) but was not so keen on Disneyland Paris.

He didn't give me any more detail than that, so I guess we'll have to wait until he gets home and has the time to provide us with more detail!

What hotel is Greg staying at in Anaheim? He said it was across the road and had a spa.

Park Vue Inn.

I definitely think they have given me a better room than I asked for because I booked the cheapest they had and this is much nicer than that one. My only complaint is that it's way down the back, which is nice and quiet but a long way to have to carry a couple of really heavy bags.

I really wonder why you would spend the extra money staying in a Disney hotel. The ones across the road are closer (except Grand Californian) and the quality is good, particularly when you are barely in the rooms. Apart from theming there are no amazing benefits - you can get an early entry with a multi-day pass.

I would recommend this place to anyone. Really close to the park, i would say that it is as close to the park entrances as the Disneyland Hotel and has amenity that I could want.

I wish this had been an option in Paris where I really did get ripped off by the Disney hotel.

For anyone who is interested I have done a bit of a re-design on my travel website and added some photos to a few of the blog posts. More photos to be added as I find time

The update is awesome Greg. Love the photos.

Can't wait to hear all about the South African leg - we haven't had any of your stories from there yet!

What an amazing journey you've been on...


What did you think of Paris? and the parks there. Are you going to upload any of your Disney photos here?

Going to have to make an effort this week to sit down and write more. I have no commitments other than Tuesday evening and Thursday.

The only other thing I have to do is research for my next project. 8)

As for the Paris parks...bottom of my list of parks to go back to.
