Disney Dream Girls Show 261 for 19th May 2019

Welcome to the show notes for the Disney Dream Girls Podcast, show number 261 for Sunday 19th May 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.

Coming up on this week's show, we reveal which park you like the most, argue about Dole Whips, discuss the road signs that aren't actually road signs, describe a new cheesey but spicy funnel cake and then move on to answer all your questions about Disneyland Paris. 

Disneyland Paris
We welcome our lovely DLP fan - Liz Read aka Fairy Godmother - to this weeks show. Liz is a font of all knowledge when it comes to Paris.  

Once we have covered the Disney theme park news, we start by reviewing some of the Paris refurbishments that are occuring this year and were all very sad to find out that the train will probably not be running until at least August 2019. Sadly, this is not due to engineering work but it seems like it is financially driven.

Then we answered questions from Steve Ernie Enright, Vikki Marie and Claire Beattie. They were mainly focussed around attractions we would like to see there or remove from there, how to manage the Fastpass system and which lounges/quick service locations we recommend.

Best lounge in DLP is at The Sequoia Lodge

We still have a long list of DLP questions to answer and we will include them on an upcoming show.

Coming up on this weeks show, Michelle is joined by guest Liz Read to share details about her Run DLP experience as well as her wedding anniversary trip to Walt Disney World. Run DLP

On this segment of the show, Liz talks briefly about the 36K challenge she took part in and what the overall experience was like.  

2019 was the third Run Disney event in Paris and Liz has completed every single one! So she is a good person for you to go to if you want to find out anything about it.  

Walt Disney World Trip.

Moving away from the running, Liz talks about what she loves about DLP. She offers 6 reasons why you should go and visit: 1. It isn't as tiring as Walt Disney World!
2. Awesome unique attractions such as Crushes Coaster.
3. The park is beautiful.

4. You will feel happy the minute you walk down Main Street.
5. It has an amazing castle.
6. Character interaction is fabulous.

Liz has a fabulous page on Facebook called Run Disney Paris Fans so why not check it out!

Walt Disney World

This October, Liz and her husband Alban celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary. So they decided to stay on site at The Beach Club and booked it with the Disney Dining Plan - a first for them both.

As her husband is not as much of a Disney fan as she is, she said that she ensured that she included elements to the trip that she knew he would like. Therefore she reserved meals at The Crystal Palace and Sci Fi Diner (amongst many others discussed on the show). 

During her trip, she particularly loved visiting Pandora - The Land of Avatar. Whilst she did not have the chance to ride the Flight of Avatar, she enjoyed walking around the land and riding on the Na'vi River Journey. Another fun thing at Animal Kingdom she enjoyed was being a Wilderness Explorer and she reminds everyone - this is just not for children!

Another highlight for Liz was meeting characters! She had lots of fun at meeting a whole host of them too! She managed to Eat at Be Our Guest Restaurant and was overwhelmed with how regal the Beast looked in his attire. 

Liz also attended Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween Party and was thrilled to meet Winnie the Poo and Friends. Their outfits were very cute and a rare chance to get a picture with the four of them.

Another unique experience was to attend Mickeys Backyard BBQ and Liz loved the character interaction as well as the tasty food.

If you want to contact Liz to find out more about her adventures, she can be found on Twitter @NoregretsLiz and her You Tube channel is Fairy Godmother.
