Toad Hall
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 46 °F
Since the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction was closed at the moment, we went on to Fantasyland and decided to have lunch at Toad Hall. I love anything that has Mr Toad in it!
Time for Lunch
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 46 °F
Toad Hall turned out to be what Disney calls a "counter service" restaurant. I was hoping for a more fancy sort of place, since this was our first time here at Disneyland Paris, but we were too hungryWeiterlesen
Dining in Toad Hall
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 46 °F
I didn't have to worry about the menu at all. Toad Hall was an authentic British fish and chips restaurant. Just like in London, the portions were huge! We bought one meal and it filled both of us up.Weiterlesen
Fish and Chips

This looks exactly like what we were eating at the chippers in London. I feel like I'm back in Poppies! I miss that restaurant so much!
A Christmas Scene
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
When we came out of Mr. Toad's restaurant, we saw this Christmas display. This is the biggest display we've seen for Christmas here so far. Until now, we've been seeing mostly Halloween decorations.Weiterlesen
The Mad Hatter
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
As we came out of Toad Hall we saw the Mad Hatter and Alice greeting guests. These were the first characters that we've seen all day. I would have liked to see them but there was a long line of kidsWeiterlesen
Alice
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
Alice looked a bit too old to be playing the part of a young girl. With the face characters, I always like them to look as close to the real character as possible. The Mad Hatter looked great butWeiterlesen
Alice's Curious Labyrinth
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
Alice's Curious Labyrinth, in Fantasyland, is a hedge maze attraction that isn't in the American Disney parks. Since this was new to us, we decided that we had to see it.
I'm Late!
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
As soon as you enter Alice's Curious Labyrinth, the White Rabbit is urging you to hurry because he's late for a very important date. Just like in the movie.
In Wonderland
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
The first part of the labyrinth was quite easy and had lots of the Wonderland background characters, like this one, peeking out from the hedges. I remember these things from the movie but can'tWeiterlesen
The Cheshire Cat
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
The Cheshire Cat, probably one of the most well known characters from Alice in Wonderland, makes several appearances throughout the labyrinth.
Hammer Birds
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
In the movie, these birds first appear in the Tulgey Wood, making signs for Alice that read "Don't step on the Mome Raths". They are later seen crying for Alice when she sings "Very Good Advice".Weiterlesen
The Accordion Owl
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
The Accordion Owl is one of the curious inhabitants of Tulgey Wood that Alice meets in the 1951 film. The accordion owl makes only a brief appearance in the film. He is seen sleeping inside aWeiterlesen
The Caterpillar
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
After passing through Tulgey Woods, we discovered the Caterpillar's Mushroom Lair, where the Caterpillar sits smoking his hookah and saying quotes from the movie.
More Cheshire Cat
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
As I said, the Cheshire Cat can be seen all throughout Alice's Curious Labyrinth. This is the biggest depiction of the famous cat, all made from flowers.
The Dodo
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
The Dodo is a character appearing in Chapters 2 and 3 of the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson). The Dodo is a caricature of the author. A popularWeiterlesen
Lost
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
It was around here that I noticed that I was all alone. I guess that I was so busy taking pictures that we got separated in the maze. I didn't know if she was some place behind me or ahead of me butWeiterlesen
Painting the Roses Red
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
Since I was alone, I started to move through the maze more quickly, determined to catch up with Kathy. When I saw the Queen's guards painting the roses red, I knew that I was nearly out of theWeiterlesen
The Tea Party
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
At the end of the labyrinth there was a photo spot that looked like the mad tea party. I never knew that Alice in Wonderland was so popular in France!
My Queen
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
There were a few spaces at the tea party setting for some good photo opportunities. Here's Kathy seated in the Queen of Heart's chair. She'll always be my queen!
The Hatter
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
By the mad tea party setting there was a big Mad Hatter hat for photo ops. This was a very hard, and heavy, plastic hat that was perminitely mounted. To pose for a photo, you had to get under the hatWeiterlesen
Another Hatter
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
Kathy posed for pictures with the big Mad Hatter's hat also but she didn't have any problems banging her head on the brim like I did. I think that she looks much better in the hat than I did too.
Bye, Alice!
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
Having finished up with Alice's Curious Labyrinth and taking pictures by the tea party setting, we were ready to see more of Disneyland Paris. I feel like going on some rides.
The Mad Tea Party
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
As soon as we came away from Alice's Curious Labyrinth we were right across from the Mad Tea Party attraction. I'm surprised that Alice in Wonderland is so popular here in France. The story is, afterWeiterlesen
The World is Small
8. November 2017 in Frankreich ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
It's time for a bathroom break, and after asking one of the castmembers where it was, he said that restrooms were near "the world is small". I knew that he meant the It's a Small World attraction butWeiterlesen
