Disney Dream Girls 248 Planning for Disneyland

Welcome to the show notes for the Disney Dream Girls Podcast, show number 248 for Sunday 17th February 2019.  If you want to listen, whilst reading these notes, just click the player below or alternatively find us in iTunes, Libsyn, on Stitcher Radio or via any good podcast catching app.

On this weeks show, Michelle is joined by a person who she affectionately calls her Dopey to her Snow White - Thomas.

Together, they chat through the planning process they undergo before planning a trip to Disneyland. 

So firstly - when? Michelle being a teacher limits the choice but they decide the break over the Christmas period.  

Next consideration - where to stay? Tom would splurge and book a room at the Grand California but with the majority of time being spent in the parks - Michelle argues the case of saving an approximate astonishing $4,000 to stay at the Hilton.

With a five day park hopper to purchase, the duo are almost ready to book but before they do, they talk through some of the unique or slightly different rides and attractions they will be able to enjoy.

Of course, no trip to Disneyland is complete without trying out some of the delicious food?

Michelle and Jayne then chat through where they would visit if they had the chance of an all expences paid trip.

Who wants to join us in Tokyo?

After that, we share a listeners question about dining at Disneyland Paris. 

Cafe Aagrabah

Tracey Farley asked for recommendations of places to eat in Disneyland Paris using the half board dining plan. So our resident DLP expert, Liz Read, suggested some of her favourite places and also advised that post April, breakfasts can also be taken in the hotels.

Newport Bay Hotel

Then, Jayne checks with Michelle that her August trip reservations at Beaches and Cream would be safe - following the announcement that the soda shop would be closing for a lengthly refurbishment from August to December 2019.

After that, we play guess the Disney souvenir price.
