Themepark Tour 2021 - Part 5

Parc Asterix

Thursday - August 12th 2021

Today we left Disneyland Paris for the other big themepark near Paris. After we got our coffee at Starbucks we were on our way to Parc Asterix, which is based on the famous comic book character Asterix. Getting there wasn't that easy, because some roads were closed and so we had to endure some detours. However, about an hour later we arrived at the onsite hotel called Hotel Les Quais De Lutece. The hotel was brand new and really beautiful, unfortunately our room wasn't ready until 5pm, but we got our tickets for the park.

The Parc Asterix hotels had their own entrance at the backside of the park. When we made it into the park, we were surprised how crowded it already was. So we decided to get a coffee first and then we checked out an exhibition about the Asterix comic books. Afterwards we just walked around the park to see what it had to offer. Since it was already noon, we also looked out for something to eat and found a restaurant that also had a vegan option. To our suprise the vegan dish was really delicious. After lunch it was time for our first ride today. We got in line for Discobelix, a fun spinning flatride. Unfortunately the park was very crowded today and so the wait times were pretty long. Since we had purchased the Filotomatix Pass for the next day, which allowed us to ride attractions without queueing, we decided to have a relaxed afternoon. We checked out the shops, bought some souvenirs and stopped at bars for drinks. Later in the afternoon we got to ride Pégase Express, a fun family coaster.

It was now 5 pm and so we returned to the hotel, because our room was finally ready, but first we had to get our luggage from the car. Like the hotel our room was really beautiful. Located on the first floor it was spacious and still looked brand new. Since the park was very crowded today, Claudia and I decided to stay at the hotel and so we relaxed a bit until we headed downstairs to hit the bar. There we got a couple of drinks and pretzels for dinner.
