Disneyland Paris II

Disney’s Once Upon a Dream Parade

(and my comments about other Disney Park attractions ;-)

We saw the parade on June, 16 at 5 pm. It was one of the best moments of the day, specially when we saw Mickey and Minnie so in love ;-))

Float 1: Dreams of Imagination

Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse stand in the basket of a giant hot air balloon shaped like the sun. They have anchored down on a giant purple crescent moon which sits on the back of the float.

Float 2: Dreams of Laughter & Fun

This float is a combination of Alice in Wonderland and Pinocchio. A line of walking playing cards leads the float, followed by the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter and the Queen of Hearts.

I took a photo with her on the next day ;-)

Before the parade, we went for a ride in the Les Voyages de Pinocchio. I strongly recommend it. In this ride, we find all the main characters like Geppetto, the Blue Fairy, the Bad Boys and Pinocchio's friend, Jiminy Cricket.
The story is very well told. I'm sure you will enjoy it!

Float 3: Dreams of Friendship

Another giant storybook makes up this view, serving as a divider for the two different themes, Toy Story 2 and The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

On our last day, we went on Peter Pan's Flight. It was a wonderful and magical experience! We had a trip that took us from London to the Neverland, flying alongside Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Wendy and her brothers.
We have travelled among the stars and through all the corners of the Neverland island.
I strongly recommend it!!! Don't miss it!

We went to the The Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains attraction in the afternoon and it was a great disapointment. There were missing points in the story like her meeting with the Seven Dwarves, the hunter being sent for her heart or when she eats the poisoned apple. The trip was not so thrilling as it was with Pinocchio or Peter Pan!

We enjoyed this parade very much! Did you like it too?

Enjoy the videos that I found in Youtube! See you!
