DISNEYLAND PARIS V.I.P TRIP!

DISNEYLAND PARIS V.I.P TRIP!

Well for those of you who don't know, I won a V.I.P trip to Disneyland Paris with AttractionTix!!!

The moment I saw the post on their facebook page saying that you could win this trip I knew I had to put effort into attempting to win such an amazing prize.

The brief was to film a video with only 2 main components. Firstly, you had to say which Disney character was your favourite as a child and why. And then secondly, you had to do an impression of that character.

When I was around the age of 3, Snow White was my favourite character. She was the Princess I aspired to be and would re-watch the film over and over and over again. So she was the character I chose for the video. I brainstormed a few ideas on a Microsoft Word document. My first option was to make up a song (which I had done previously for a different competition to win a trip to Disneyland which unfortunately I didn't win!) I started trying to come up with some lyrics, but soon scrapped this idea. Then all of a sudden I had a brainwave, I was going to show how I was the complete opposite of Snow White and why I want to be like her, then I would magically transform into her and be able to do all the things I couldn't. I knew I wanted it to be humorous, as I thought this would stand out. 

I watched the film for the 100000th time and read her wikipedia bio. I wrote down 4 themes on paper.

1. Baking

2. Talks to animals

3. Cleaning

4. Likes apples

This was all I needed to come up with my final idea. I will leave the video below so you can see precisely what I am talking about.

I waited anxiously all day during the day it was being announced. I had found a couple of other entries on YouTube and comping groups and was sure I hadn't won, even though I was actually really proud of my entry. About 7pm I gave up staring at the Facebook page and refreshed it to go to my timeline. When all of a sudden I spotted my video at the top of my timeline! I literally screamed!!! I was shaking, couldn't believe I'd managed it!

Okay so enough of all that, here is the really exciting bit! The prize details....

Firstly, Lucy, Pete and Disneyland newbie Meryn are coming on the trip with me, and I could not be happier!

We are travelling down on the Eurostar, which means that we get to spend a day eitherside in London too!

We are staying in the Newport Bay Hotel for 2 nights, which I am really excited about because I stayed there as a child and loved it!

We have the Disney Express Luggage Service added to the package which is great as I suffer from CFS and dragging luggage is the hardest part of a trip for me.

We also have the Full Board Plus meal plan which is truly amazing! We had a meal plan for my birthday trip in June and we adored it. This time we are going to try Bistrot Chez Remy which is somewhere I've always wanted to try!

As well as this, we have Plaza Gardens for a character dining Breakfast and Buffalo Bill's on our first night!

We have V.I.P Fastpasses for our trip and V.I.P Parade and Firework Viewing! Which is truly magical! I can't wait to see Illuminations close up.

Me and Lucy are going to be going on a V.I.P guided tour which has been a dream of mine since I first went to a Disney park, I love learning facts about the parks (although I probably already know them all!)

And lastly, there is apparantly going to be a Disney surprise in the room when we arrive!

I am literally freaking out about how amazing this prize is! We leave for London on the 13th of November, we're in Disneyland the 14th - 16th and then have the 17th in London again! If you're going to be in the parks let me know so we can say hi!

A-Z of Character - The Letter S!

S is for...

Scrooge McDuck, this one was my friend Pete's main choice to meet at the Very Merry Christmas Party. Scrooge was really funny and was trying to steal peanuts from the set behind him! He met with his nephew Donald!

Sadness isn't one of my favourite movie characters, but as a character to meet she was amazing! She knocked my friend Lucy's ears off whilst hugging her and instantly slumped to the floor in...well...sadness! We had to pick her up and we tried to cheer her up by spinning happily with Joy!

The Sheriff of Nottingham was hilarious in Disneyland Paris. I was sat on a bench having a rest and him and a few other characters popped out of the gate and started messing around. He was chasing me around the area and getting right up in my face while I took photos!

Snow White I managed to meet in Disneyland Paris when I was 3. She was in the Disneyland Hotel as we were wandering through and at the time she was my favourite character!!

Sleepy and the rest of the dwarves were out in a very rare moment in Disneyland Paris when I was 3 and I was in awe!! 

I met Stitch in Magic Kingdom randomly when I was visiting with Lucy in 2014! He's always a fun character to meet!

Sulley was with his buddy Mike in Hollywood Studios in 2014!

Shaggy and Scooby Doo can go together as I have only ever met them as a pair!

Once Upon A Time Tag

Sorry I have been MIA for a while. Work has been busy and famiy stuff and I visited Disneyland Paris! However, today I am going to do the Once Upon a Time Tag. I have been a huge fan of Once Upon a Time since the first day it aired on UK television. Albeit they actually took it off British tv, but I now follow through my box sets and am waiting to get season 5 for Christmas! Yes I am behind but I am loving taking my time to catch up!

So here we go!

1. Favourite Male Character?

I can see this tag being tough already. Okay it has to be either Hook due to his dreamy and charismatic self, plus the way he defends Emma in any situation; or Rumpelstiltskin who I have enjoyed watching on screen from the very start.

2. Favourite Female Character?

Regina Mills, I have always loved a good Disney villain, but I love them even more when they turn over a new leaf and redeem themselves. Plus she has the most killer outfits!

3. Least Favourite Male Character?

This is a toss up between my 2 most hated characters in the whole series: Neal and Will. Neal I find annoying as he literally doesn't remind me as the cute Baelfire whatsoever (but at least they killed him off!) And then Will Scarlet is just generally annoying, I find his character very bland and he's just kind of there.

4. Least Favourite Female Character

Probably Lily, she was cute in her flashback scenes with Emma, but not overly keen on this bad ass dragon bitch kind of thing she has going.

Ahh Rumple or Regina, I really can't pick!

Wow that's specific erm...maybe when Belle chips the cup, as I love Beauty and the Beast!
