Our Trip to Disney Land
Add your story
Last month my brother Murray and I went to Disneyland Paris for a holiday. He really really enjoyed it. We have been to Disneyland Paris four times now and we are going back again next year because Murray loves it so much. It is extra special when you go with a special needs child because you get a blue pass for the Park and a green pass for the Studio and you do not have to queue.
Murray loves the scariest rides in Disney – Thunder Mountain and the Aerosmith Rollercoaster. When we go into the Park we have to go on all the rides in Murray’s order - the Mad Hatter Teacups, Dumbo Flying Elephant, It’s a Small World, Peter Pan’s Flight, Pinocchio, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and the Pirates of the Caribbean and over and over again. But it is great fun and Murray is really happy.
The Princess Parade is on at 4pm every day and Murray really loves watching it – we can go to the Disabled Area and you always get to see the parade really well. We go for dinner in the Rain Forest café every night. Murray loves it there because every few minutes the animals move. Every year we stay in the Hotel New York in the Disney Village and Murray loves staying in the same hotel every year. Murray and I love collecting all the Disney pins every year and you can swap them for different pins with the cast members.
We were there for St Patrick’s Day this year and we saw green fireworks and Mickey and Minnie were in green clothes for the Parade. There was Irish dancing as well in Main Street USA and I got asked to dance with Chip theSquirrel.
When we go the Disneyland Paris it is wonderful because we never get bored, Murray is really happy and Mum and Dad really enjoy the holiday and I do too. It is really great having an autistic brother because you get to do special things like go to Disneyland Paris and you don’t have to queue. It’s the best!
