Hello! New member here

I've been told about your lovely forum by the lovely Robyn so thought I would come and join the fun!

So here goes...

My first disney experience was back in 2006 when my Boyfriend took me to DLP on a day trip as a surprise. Then I caught the bug and visited WDW in 2009 and got engaged during wishes at the contemporary. We took a mini break to DLP in October 2010 while planning the wedding and honeymooned at Disneyland and the west coast in 2011. We considered a break in 2012 but hell that was never going to happen so we visited DLP in october 2012. Our last trip was this April when we visited WDW again.

and 2014? well it's either the west coast again or WDW at christmas for us so let the planning commence!

Welcome Hannikins! Which Disney is your favorite Disney so far? Tell us about your favorite rides, favorite park, favorite dining experience, etc. I've only ever been to WDW (it's the closest at an hour drive and a 2-hour flight from home), but once our annual passes (that we don't start using until next week!) expire, we'll have a DL trip and MAYBE a DLP crossfingers trip on the calendar in the "near" future!!

Hi hannikins!

Glad to have you here! I'm from Baltimore and go to WDW all the time, but I love DL too (DL is Disneyland Park btw, DLP is Disneyland Paris, by most forum standards anyway. DLR is generally Disneyland. Just for future reference so no one gets confused Smile ) I went this past June. I'm also new here, though I'm on other forums as well.

Have fun and we look forward to helping you plan your trip!

thanks everyone!!

I think WDW would be my favourite 'destination' but Magic Kingdom at DLP has to be my favourite park, I just love the castle and the extra details you get there.

favourite ride? hard to say , I don't think I can choose between BTM and TOT!

Dining experience has to be Victoria & Alberts, we LOVED it!
