Another Day At Disneyland Paris
Saturday - January 4th 2014
Today we expected the crowds to be even bigger than yesterday, but to our surprise the parks weren't that crowded. Like the days before we used the Extra Magic Hours to ride Buzz Lightyear's Laser Blast and Space Mountain and afterwards it was time for a breakfast coffee at the Cable Car Bake Shop on Main Street USA.

After a hot cup of coffee we headed over to Frontierland to be among the first to ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and to do the Phantom Manor. It was interesting to see that more people were queuing for the Fastpasses instead of going on the ride.

We still had plenty of time until our lunch reservation at the Agrabah Cafe and so we walked back to Discoveryland to tkae a journey with Star Tours into the Star Wars Universe. Back on Earth it started to rain, but luckily Captain EO next door was about to begin and so we decided to give the show a try. This 3D movie made by George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola starring Michael Jackson was a first time for us and honestly it wasn't that bad considering its age.

Now it was time for lunch at the Agrabah Cafe and the rain was gone as well. Soon after we arrived at the restaurant, we got seated and the feast could begin. We ordered a glass of wine and the food from the buffet was as delicious as always.

After a relaxing lunch Claudia and I joined the Pirates on a cruise through the Caribbean. I'm a big fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, but I'm glad that Disneyland Paris still has the original version without Captain Jack Sparrow.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril was next on our To-Do List and after a thrilling ride through the old temple, we walked back to Discoveryland, because Les Mysteres du Nautilus, a walk through Captain Nemo's submarine, was finally open. Luckily we survided the squid attack.

Before we walked over to the Walt Disney Studios Park, we took a break at Cafe Fantasia. In the Studios we had an early dinner at the En Coulisse Restaurant with fries and a salad and then we only rode the Tower of Terror and Rock'n'Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith.
