Am so excited I think it will help a bit if I write down all my thoughts!
Myself, DH and our two DSs are traveling to DLP from 18-22 May. This will be the 5th trip for both DH & I, the second trip for DS1 and first trip for DS2.

I was very lucky to visit 'EuroDisney' shortly after it first opened, in May 1992. I was 9 years old and I still remember it vividly. We stayed for 4 nights in Hotel Santa Fe. Obviously, Walt Disney Studios wasn't open yet, and also lots of the rides in Disneyland Park weren't there, but all of us still had a wonderful time. My Dad told lots of people when we returned, that "it's not just for kids!". Never a truer word spoken! ;-)
DH brought me to Paris for my 22nd birthday in 2005, and on the day of my birthday we went on a day trip to Disneyland. We felt that one day wasn't enough, so we returned in July 2006 for 6 nights, with his sister in tow. We stayed in hotel Santa Fe.
Finally, in March 2012, we visited with a child! We brought out DS1, aged 3.5yrs at the time, and left DS2 with his grandparents as he was less than a year old. We stayed in Disneyland Hotel and it was FAB! DS1 still talks about his trip, almost 2 years later. He loved every minute of it.

Our next trip!

We would have loved to stay in Disneyland Hotel again, but the difference in price between it and New York was too much to pass up. I'm happy that NY is still a short walk to the parks. We're staying for 4 nights, arriving early on a Sunday and leaving late on a Thursday, which gives us 5 days in the parks.
Our DS2 will turn 3 on the Tuesday, so we're planning to make it a really special day for him and also hoping for some pixie dust!
We've decided to book the Half Board Premium meal plan. Because DS2 will still be 2 on the day we travel, we don't have to buy a meal plan for him and that saves us a few quid.
The restaurants I'm planning on going to are:
Buffalo Bills
Inventions
Auberge du Cendrillion
Cafe Mickey
and also Sunday brunch at Inventions.

Only 117 more sleeps!
