After previous great advice from people on this board I thought I would post a few pictures and stories from my trip to Disneyland Paris in February 2004. At the time they had 'The Lion King Carnival' going on which was fantastic, my little cousins particularly adored the real lion cub they used for the festival parade.

Me and my cousins underneat the castle - perhaps this photo demonstrates the actual size of the castle!

Festival of the Lion King parade, I love the culture of Africa so I just found this absolutely amazing - if anyone is interested I have a short video of part of this parade which I can email if you would like to view it.

Meeting Goofy at Café Mickey - we had a great experience at Café Mickey meeting lots of characters and g etting a great meal. I would recommend this to anyone especially if you most concerned about meeting characters - definitely book though... we almost didn't get in!

Breakfast time at Sequoia Lodge - generally I was really impressed with this hotel - the open log fire was a fantastic addition! We used to have breakfast at 7 which was fairly busy but by the time we finished people would be queing up the stairs to get in for the 8AM sitting! Mind you we did go in February half term so that may have been why it was so busy...
Hope anyone who read this enjoyed my brief account of the trip!!

P.S Sorry that the pictures came out so huge!
