Re: Disneyland Resort Paris - no more magic?
I'm not all that surprised either. When I was there it was nice (and I use that word lightly). Yes it's small, people weren't friendly, however they all spoke English which was a nice bonus seeing my French isn't as good as I'd like it (sorry total sidebar), half the rides were closed, their version of fireworks is way different than that of the US Disney locations. Their version of fireworks is a strange parade with a float at the end that makes firework sounds and an almost light bright looking fireworks display. Just thought it was very odd. I found a picture of the fireworks, not the best picture but it's what I was able to get.
With all of that being said I absolutely think I was spoiled by my many trips to WDW. It's extremely different there, nothing like the US parks at all.
If that's true about the park being sold to a French company that's really a shame. At the end of the day it's really putting the Disney name on the chopping block and leaving a bad taste in people's mouth of the Disney magic. Imagine knowing someone who's been to a US park and they rave about how wonderful it is, that family then goes to DLP and is so put off because it's not the same.
Anyway I'm just ranting now but thanks for reading.
